Alrighty-O,  
Another newbie question based out of pure curiosity. Please do not hide your surprise at my ignorance, but who is Wally? I mean, is he a resident reg of this board who personally evaluates and designs sigs for other regs? Or is he just a place on the web to find fun and creative sigs? Please-O-Please help satiate my curiosity.

😃

**WallyM7** is a poster on this board. Much of his wit may be found in the **MPSIMS** Forum, although he does post in the **BBQ Pit** rather often and shares his wisdom in **Great Debates** and here ( **GQ** ) on occasion.

Rumor has it that WallyM7 is really just a front for a corporate money laundering scheme and that his sig lines are really secret codes using WWII era Germanic coding that gives the info regarding future drop points of various illegal goods smuggled in from Cuba.

But you didn’t hear that from me. I want to stay on his good side.

Well, honey just tastes better when it comes from a bear’s head.

As the oft brilliant Tom has said, WallyM7 is one of the posters here. One of the wittiest too, I might add. Anyway, he made some humorous statements that others appropiated for sig lines. I spotted that and challenged him to create sigs for anyone wishing them. He acquitted himself quite admirably as you will see in [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum4/HTML/006708.html) and I’m still on his shit list for it, I think.

I think a case could be made that this thread belongs in About This Message Board, but the responses are going to be a lot more funny in MPSIMS.

Who is **Wally** , indeed. heh heh.
