Well, I know that I get _myself_ mixed up with **Mama Tiger** (every time I see one of her posts I do a double-take: “did _ **I** _ write that???” :smack: ) OK, not exactly siblings, but sisters in parenthood 🙂 ---

There are several other members of the **walrus** clan **Punk Walrus** **The Walrus** **Walrus** **XWalrus2** **IMDWalrus** **sexy\_walrus** **Max Walrus** And, then, of course, there’s **eggman** and **elenorigby**. There are probably many other Beatles-inspired names, but they’re not easy to search for. ---

So there’s a definite conceptual match there. ---

Why…me and that paragon of virtue from Lil’ Abner… **Lonesome Polecat**. Of course to be closer I really should change my name to Hairless Joe. Y’all do know how they add body to their Kickapoo Joy Juice don’t you? If it needs more body, they just throw one in!
