Reply skiloff Member sinceJuly 2005 From: Saskatchewan 331 posts Posted by skiloff on Wednesday, September 28, 2005 4:58 PM Well, I didn't want to say anything before, but I'm a bit of a celebrity. My name is Coyote. Wile E. Coyote, Genius. I'd post my picture but I have a couple nasty black eyes from my last encounter with that *#&$^# road runner. I'm also privy to the fact that another celeb frequents these forums. A certain Porky Pig. But I warn you. DO NOT have an operating session with him as the Dispatcher. Total chaos, trust me. Kids are great for many reasons. Not the least of which is to buy toys "for them."

I would reveal my true identity, but that would be a violation of the Intelligence Identities Protection Act, and it would probably land Bergie in jail next to Judy Miller. Although, come to think of it, MR's readership would probably be able to mount a more determined and effective effort to secure his release.
