Okay....on day two of our cruise, when I find you hiding under a stairwell, a mojeeto in each trembling little hand, and shreiking "MAKE HIM AND THE PUPPET LEAVE ME ALONE", I am going to remind you that you of your words...
"oh....bring the puppet with you...we love props".
Pray....pray with all your heart ...that sometime between now and May 10, 2009 Homeland Security decides that 1/2 a yard of faux fur and sunglasses constitutes a security risk... even if it means bringing in the puppet sniffing dogs and profiling travelers.
With time, the other guests aboard may forgive you for what you have done. They may even stop pointing and whispering, "she's the one that suggested he bring it on board."
Remember the name cocowum.
Well, Kevin forgot all about me once again. For the very kind DISer who realized I was missing and asked how I became a part of this, I lost a bet. I had two options to repay the wager: get to know Harold intimately or become a part of the podcast. The rest is history.
Actually, there's a sweet story behind this. I had been pointing out some needed site changes to Corey. All was good then my Mom became terminally ill three and a half years ago. Pete and John generously allowed me to spend as much time as needed by her side. It was an incredible blessing.
When she passed away that September, Pete sensed I needed to get away and invited me spend a week at his home. While I was there, he talked about getting a full time editor and asked if I had any suggestions. All of a sudden he said "what about you?"
Of course this meant making a total techno-phobe a bit computer savvy. (Corey has the patience of a saint.)
The podcast role sort of evolved from all that. Since I research a lot of the site info, it was a natural extension of what I was already doing.
Here is Harold sitting poolside at home.
"puppet overboard"
I think an anonymous call to Customs about a suspicious puppet being brought on board should do the trick.
I still think we have cocowum to blame for encouraging this.

I hadn't thought about that.
Hello Homeland Security, there is strange man wearing one boot, driving a suspicious vehicle covered with Christmas lights and he has his hand up the backside of what appears to be a small, furry, exotic animal that's wearing sunglasses and drinking from a Big Gulp.
Who's brave enough to make that call?
