I suppose I can concede the point, but only if I must.

The thing is...they weren't even Oscar Meyer hot dogs.  They're another brand.

So, was it you, Fuzzy?  Or Brenna?  You two had the knowledge and the motive (driving me crazy).

knowledge and motive, but no time.

I barely have time to see my husband, let alone drive up to Orem and leave things on people's doorsteps.

And I'm sure you're taking VERY good care of "Oscar."

Hot dogs. I ask you.

I have a vague suspicion of someone it might have been.  I'm in the process of investigating the situation.

I await your discovery, Fishdetective.

Yay.   ;D

I have emailed the suspect, but she hasn't responded yet.

Sadly, my lead was a negative.

(Or, not so sadly, because the lead was my old roomie, who was in on the original fish.  If she had gone ahead without me, as I suspected, I would have had to hurt her.  In some slow, nonviolent, politically correct way.  Assuming one of those exists.)

So, I guess it's back to square one, unless you have any leads, EUOL?

Are we allowed to blame SE for this?
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

That could be entertaining.  Do the ninja monkeys sing and dance?
