To qualify as a best friend, one must meet the following requirements:

1. He shall be willing to serve as his buddy's wingman, both literally and figuratively.  

2. He shall be loyal to the end.  Narcing is grounds for disqualification.

3. He shall listen to his compadre's problems, or at least pretend to do so.  

4. He shall never borrow without permission.   

Kennedy meets all the standards he and Christopher coined back in grade nine.  Well, most of them.  Nobody's perfect.  Everyone steals a pencil or a piece of gum from time to time.  When the insurance company gets involved, then it's a problem--if you're a bad liar.  Kennedy isn't.  Christopher, on the other hand, can't keep a surprise birthday party under wraps.  They're polar opposites: sugar and salt, black and white, broccoli and cheese, ice at the North Pole and ice at the South Pole.  That's what makes them so great together.  Until Christopher's brand-spanking-new (as in gently used) Mooney suddenly won't start, which begs the question: how does a grounded plane up and disappear?
