I feel like "Guy Straley" must anagram to something. Maybe if we add a "Marvolo" in the middle.
Stop that right now! I can hear the smacking!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

We got no snow. Well, I saw a few flakes. Tonight we'll get the backhand of the storm, but even that isn't supposed to be much. A couple inches?

The "Gus Raley" on LinkedIn is definitely our guy - he runs "Designs by Gus" and designsbygus@gmail.com is associated with TVTropes.

I have to say, I'm not sure what anyone means by this. Is there some other question (other than why?) that needs answering? Because I don't think he's ever going to answer that question. Gus/Guy Straley was a lying lair who lies, and he continues to be one (apparently).
I pretty much figure it was started as a lark, went on way too long, and the pseudicide was an attempt to end it as "harmlessly" as possible. Didn't work out that way. As far as I'm concerned, that's the best explanation I'll ever get. It doesn't absolve him, nor does it get him out of a big ol' can of punchtotheface, in my book. But it also means I don't have presume malice on the part of somebody I've never met, which would require more emotional investment from me than I'm prepared to put into it.

We should ALL ask for a connection to him on LinkedIn. Has anyone searched Facebook?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Um. Holy shit. I don't think this was linked before. Googling for Gus Raley quickly got me this comment:
Feb 7, 23:15 by Gus Raley An extensive collection of speculative fiction tropes is available among the other 5000 or so tropes cataloged by the TV Tropes fanatics. Worth a peek.

At some point, I assumed Gus drinks a fair amount. Holds it well, but tends to post & ramble.
