I would note here that Cleigh doesn't have a cookie and although he does have a picture page, I wouldn't want the boy to get too Mudcat crazy because he can't type and I get tired of doing it for him, even occasionally.

However, you must be seeing some relatives. Cleigh couldn't possibly have been seen in the places you mention since he hasn't left his shelf in days. He's been very distraught over Leej's comment that he isn't real. I don't know how to tell him that Max has upped the ante to 200 which Ol' Spaw ain't got!!! He was hoping for a little better response to his request for donations for a picture, but I guess I'll have to break the news to him somehow. Maybe the "Seaweed Shaker" will have some ideas. They've gotten very close.

He does want to listen in with me on Wednesday and that's good, but I hope this latest news doesn't put him into an even deeper funk.
