I'm a pretty decent guy. I have a stable job, I have two kittens who love me, and I am quite competent in fixing computers. I'm also pretty good with networking and am learning a lot about phone systems. I don't have any (visible) warts. Haha! Actually, I don't have any warts at all! So in summation, I'm an okay Joe.

In a nutshell:
I initially discovered the 'logs via a link from Wil's site, which I discovered through Fark.
I contacted Ben, proposing to commission a a Killoggs-style Ed-head, because I wanted to use it on my own site. I lurked, and I commented, and lo... I was actually invited to join in the fray. I was astonished, but accepted before Josh could come to his senses. The rest, as they say, is history.
PS - the kittens will be three year-olds come May, and I really should have stopped calling them 'kiittens' at least a year ago. In my defense, I *do* love kittens, so the fact that I call my 'cats' 'kittens' is a moot point.
reggie [email] said at 11:35 AM 02-23-2005: Phooey! This is revisionist history. We all know that Killoggs as well as the entire internet was actually designed around Ed. Here's what really happened:
Ed conceived of Killoggs and needed the correct vessel to unleash this utopic vision so he created the "internet." Then, through his vast network of spies and informants he tracked down a bright young web designer/aspiring punk rock mogul named "Josh" and his long time man-friend the one they call "Ben" and decided that these two young lads would be the perfect tools to dupe into "creating" Ed's vision.
Josh and Ben needed some convincing though but were so desperate for direction that they finally wised up and realized the complete brilliance of the whole scheme. So, using Ed's amazing concept, they created this on-line community that has come to be known simply Killoggs. They allowed Killoggs to grow and were able to convince all of the innocent souls to come join their "community" giving them all a sense of purpose, direction and identity granting the very special ones with cartoon heads. After Killoggs grew to what he deemed was the proper size Ed was suddenly "introduced" as a "new member" when in actuality this entire thing was his idea from the very beginning. You see, by allowing Josh and Ben to take credit for "creating" Killoggs, if by some unfathomable fluke it -- as well as his internet -- were to fail then J & B would take all the blame and Ed would be in the clear.
But as you can see, I've done the research. I've uncovered the facts, left no stone unturned and left no child behind. THIS ladies and gentlemen is the true origin of Ed, Killoggs and the internet. Now Ed, Josh and Ben may claim to not know what I'm talking about and only two of them would be speaking the truth. That's because Ed had that portion of their memory completely erased. Oh he's diabolical allright, diabolical like a fox!
You can "deny" this all you want Edward, we both know what's up.
