Workers behind missing vehicles probed

Check the surrounding jungles for ditched vehicles. In the 80's, the new Snap On wrench sets were stolen from a hangar at Cubi Pt. About 10k dollars worth. The investigation concluded that monkeys broke in and stole all the shiny wrenches and stashed them somewhere in the jungle. They didn't touch any other tools, just the expensive ones, but they were the shiniest. There's a treasure trove of tools still out there somewhere. That's what probably happened to all the missing vehicles. Wild monkeys!

Monkeys do love shiny stuff right enough!

I'm not sure why this is such a complex issue.  Simple enough to trace who was allocated which vehicle and simply require them to return the vehicle or face charges (fraud/embezzlment/theft).

Of course, that won't be what happens.

I met the descendants of those monkeys while living in Binictican.  Made the mistake of leaving a couple shiny cooking tools on top of the outdoor BBQ.  At least I didn't lose any Snap-On wrenches . . .

From the story that is exactly what's being done.

Nothing here is simple as you well know, remember its nobodies fault...never ever.

I can vouch for monkeys stealing things. So far I've found screws, tools, clothes and various other items in the jungle below my apartment. I'm sure some are employed as Trike drivers here.

Two contrasting opinions - I know which one I tend to agree with.
