Perfect It Aint

As the title indicates, perfect it aint. I'll rant and rave, maybe even curse once in a while. You are welcome to join me with your comments. At worst I'll just tear out the rest of my hair. At best, I may agree with you. Or maybe I'll just ignore it, because you know, perfect it aint!

HOOTIE, YOU RASCAL, YOU!

Hootie, you finally done it! Someone actually asked what you are.

I have published to all the boards and forums that I had been using, that Hootie is my pet owl. I have also mentioned numerous times that he does not exist, except as a figment of my imagination. It is much easier to get some points across if you use a co-conspirator or be the straight man for a comic, and I have played both parts with Hootie. And it has been wonderfully successful.

But the one forum where I made no big deal of it was the HD forums. I did not introduce Hootie into any discussions until a few months ago, and when I did I made sure I qualified him as a non-existent pet. So imagine my surprise today when I glance at that forum and someone said that they had skimmed my blog and wondered if Hootie was my pet owl. I have not answered the query and may not. The individual can always come back here and learn the truth.

Somewhere, back in the history of this blog, Hootie is introduced. I don't remember exactly where, but it is there if anyone is interested.



But for any of you skimmers or lurkers, leave a message and let me know you were here. If you have ideas for improvements or want particular topics to0 get the treatment, let me know. I'll turn Hootie loose and we'll see what hen-scratching he comes up with.
