“Hello All!

“Welcome aboard, Wally!”

“WALLY! Ya made it . Cool”

“Where's the Beav, Eddie and Lumpy?”

“WOW!
You guys are fast with the replies!”

“By the way....
Radagast came up with my online name. They were busting on me about my Wal-Mart gear on a hike last year. And dubbed me "Wally". I didn't like it...but then Rad said "Hey, you know...Wally is always looking for The Beaver!" So the name stuck with me.”

“Wally-World.....

D@mn, I wanted to ask "where's the Beaver?"”

“oh god, there goes the neighborhood..........

“Hey, Wally. Is the ~ in front of you or behind you. Iffin it's behind you, it's a tail, iffin it's in front of you, then I'm warning everyone, don't hike in front of Wally. Welcome!”

“yeah, dude. what's with the ~?

“Hey, Wally, nice to meet you. If you are going to post online, you are going to have to shop online. Don't get them started on K-Mart, Wal-Mart and the like, again. Though they can be pretty funny about it.”

“online??? what's wrong with going to an outfitter? geez.”

“oh, and look out for the falling prices. whoa!”

“Who gave Rad his new name?”

“Leave Wally alone about his WalMart connection, will you'ns?
