Blak Mal

Synopsis:
The fur lady, aka Little Miss Muffett, long on Minoxidol and brandishing a vial of the deadly VX nerve agent, hijacks a plane to extort passage of the Krumholz-Lehmann Bill which has lingered in Congress for twenty-two years, the intent of which is to outlaw furs forever in the United States. Passage has been stymied by the fact that every male Congressperson's wife has a fur coat. The hostages: Michael Jackson and Al Bino, an NBA forward. Three characters, and the voices of an air traffic controller, NYC police commissioner Kelly, the head of the CIA (whomever that happens to be this week).

For veteran Major League catcher Noland Walker of the San Francisco Giants, a lifetime batting average of .282 and 2,500 hits are just not enough.
