Phil, I had to read EVERY post in this thread because it was so frickin' hilarious! Kudos for your comic genius, as well as everyone else's! Just one question though....do you realise you could have ended this all from the beginning if you'd "baited" the lil bugger with cookies? Say perhaps, a certain brand of cookies, made in a tree, by some of his family? Perhaps you thought of that and worried they'd turn on you as well....
