CHAPTER THIRTEEN
The Santa Jacinto Mountains on the left are right on the San Andreas Fault line on the right


On the way back to Chicago from Syria, Hairy got a satellite phone call from Dick Shaking, the director of the California Earthquake Authority. Hairy said, "what's up Dick? Dick said, "We got some serious shit going on and we need your help. Hairy said, "Be more specific and tell me what is happening". Dick said, "The NSA intercepted a phone call between two Mexican illegals who live in the Santa Jacinto Mountains. The crazy bastards are planning to set off an explosion in the Mountains that will cause a devastating 10.9 magnitude earthquake!" Hairy said, "my goodness, that's big enough to drop Los Angeles into the Pacific Ocean".

Hairy flew  his private jet out to the city of Santo Jacinto and booked a room at the Hampton Inn. He met Dick Shaking in the hotel bar. After ordering a Scotch and water, he said, "All right Dick, tell me what has to be done." Dick said, " first of all, we need you to arrange some reinsurance so our Earthquake Insurance fund doesn't go bankrupt if the quake occurs. But more importantly, we hope you can tap dance on these crazy bastards before they blow up the mountain".  Hairy said,"the reinsurance is easy to arrange but finding these guys is going to be difficult. Fortunately, I am an expert mountain climber. Have you figured out their motive for getting rid of Los Angeles?"
