  Another Mad Dog is gone.
  Our friend Fletcher Boone -- sculptor, restaurateur, fake curmudgeon �
  and Mad Dog -- died Monday a few weeks after receiving devastating �
  injuries in a head-on collision in Bastrop County.
  Fletcher thus joins Billy Lee, Ann, Molly, his wife Libby and his Raw �
  Deal partner Jim Smitham in that big park in the sky.
  He is survived by his daughter Lily and a number of fellow Mad Dogs �
  who are better (or luckier) drivers.
  He is already missed.


  ?That's Larry L. King in front at a book signing at Scholz's in 1968.
  At far left is Fletcher, and beside him is Billy Lee Brammer.
