I _know_ who you are! You are the purveyor of death chicken and f\*cking heavenly cookies. 😃

Frankly, I’m not convinced that **Ed Zotti** is the real Ed Zotti.

I have some crazy theories about who **DMark** might be, but it’s a ridiculous concept that I refuse to entertain, and I wouldn’t want to accidentally oust him.

I think there might be some literary types (authors) here under surrogate identitiies totally manufactured for an extra layer of anonymity.

I hope Steve King, Alton Brown, and Anthony Bourdain post here… but those are probably just fantastical figments.

Oh, no. I last went there about god–now that I think of it, about 20 years ago.

It WAS a nice little town. ☹

Curses! Now I shall have to hunt you down like a dog and make you eat both dishes, together in the same meal! Take that!

What if a celebrity posted here and revealed his/her identity, but on a sock account, and they were actually a well-known and still anonymous poster in their own right. And then he/she got banned. That would be tragicomic.

As much as I would love to perpetuate this myth (and fuel it as a matter of fact) I have, after all, attended a few Dopefests, and even helped organize the LasVegasDopeFests. Trust me…those who were here can attest that my real life sock puppet is currently a rather boring college teacher.

That said, I have worked with lots and lots and lots of famous celebrities and those who were here might have seen a few interesting posters hanging on the walls of my house. I also still keep in touch with friends who still work in the industry and know all the dirt…so if you ever want to feel like you are six degrees from a famous person, feel free to drop my name in the mix.

(I did, however, so very much want to intentionally, poorly Photoshop my face onto a famous nude celebrity in that new “show your naked body” thread…)

Well, that’s good to know.

Here, I thought you were either Siegfried or Roy. I just couldn’t figure out which one… 😛
