Murder Mystery

Tiara Diamond, Miss Kansas City, and Dr. Ivan Spudnik, the defected Russian rocket scientist, attended a barbecue this evening at the home of the wealthy Kansas City car dealer, Tom Dooley. Unfortunately, their host met an untimely death, being found next to his grill with a barbecue fork in his heart, and his steaks burned to a crisp. Both Miss Diamond and Dr. Spudnik were suspected of perpetrating this heinous crime.

The guest list also included the famous singer Chbby Cheddar, and Tom Dooley's half-sister Bobbi Sox, among many other notables.

Actually, since there were so many dinner guests, and so few parts for them to play that there were 2 to 4 people to play each part, including 3 Tiara Diamonds, and 3 Ivan Spudniks.

The truth eventually came out, but since not all Kudjipites were present, and a second event is planned, I'm not at liberty to reveal who was guilty.

Those of you who have known Judy for a long time are not surprised at her talent for disguise (remember the time she came to the Harvest party at Marysville Nazarene Church as Albert Einstein, and there were people who knew Judy well who never did figure out who was playing old Al). For the rest of you, if there is any lingering doubt, I have my arm around my own lovely wife, whether you think that looks like her or not!

The Mystery Dinner Party was great fun. The food was great, too! Thanks Becky Wallace for putting it all together.
