I am shocked, shocked and appalled that many of you are either not who you say you are, or that you are who you say you are except you never actually said what you say you are…sorry, what were we talking about, exactly?

At this point I suppose I must confess that I am not in fact a cartoon horse, nor have I ever actually hit anyone over the head with a guitar, although I wouldn’t mind trying it someday, just to hear the sound it makes.

Yes it is a shameful secret, but one that must come out.

It could be worse though, you might’ve been getting secret sex calls from Bill O’Reilly 😃

I can’t tell you the full story of who I really am (not enough space for that, plus there’s the issue of what I’m “clear” to tell you), but I can show you [my small country estate](http://terraserver.microsoft.com/map.aspx?t=1&s=11&lon=-82.55095&lat=35.53965&w=600&h=400), [one of my cars](http://northstargallery.com/cars/car45.htm), [one of the U.S. Senators I have in my back pocket](http://bioguide.congress.gov/scripts/biodisplay.pl?index=W000154), [the other U.S. Senator in my back pocket](http://bioguide.congress.gov/scripts/biodisplay.pl?index=F000062), and, last and least, [my private golf course](http://www.golfclubatlas.com/wingedfoot1.html).
