Let's see if I can pull this thread together.....get to the sole of the matter so to speak.....

Phred, who is green and wears a black cape and hat, is underneath the Shadow really Boots the Cat...who likes beer but not prune juice and HATES clam juice as well as creatures without feet except when they are tunaed into the radio on a beach in the South Seas which is a long way from Ohio.

What a kettle of fish this has become! And poor toughCookie is still swimming upstream -- who is this fishy Phred again???
