Maxie
1.
What Made You Choose the Name Maxie?
My name
is Maxie. I let my boy Bill come up with that one. He has this
thing about The Grinch Who Stole Christmas and that dog. In
case you don't recall, the Grinch is owned by a dog named Max. He
also says something about some guy named Mad Max, someone named Maxwell
Smart, some Doobie Brothers song called Sweet Maxine, some book called
Maximum Overdrive..... and an unending list of other Maxisms. I worry
about him (He calls me by a bunch of other names, too - MaXena Warrior
Beagle, Maximus Beagalia Ruler of the Seven Galaxies.... see why I worry).
By the way, while Maxie originated from the name Max, I'm a girl beagle,
so my full first name is Maxine.

When Is Your Birthday? (I Want to Shower You With Cards and
Gifts)
I
was born on September 21, 1996. Please, send me a card on my birthday
(this is the internet - make it an e-greeting, please). If you really
insist on buying a gift, please consider making a donation to your local
Humane Society (let me know when you do!). If you really want to
get me something, I prefer U.S. currency and large denomination bills are
just fine.
3.
Do You Have Any People?
On November
30, 1996, I started exerting my keen telepathic powers and summoned
my boy Bill and my girl Colleen to come and take me to my rightful home
with them. Having a person is a big responsibility. Talk to
the people at your local Humane Society before you consider getting yourself
one.
4.
What Do You Do For a Living?
Beagles
like me spend most of our time keeping our people happy. It's hard
work. I am very fortunate in that I also have a career as a bookseller.
See the section of this web site with books for sale. There is also
the work I do for the CIA. Don't believe me? Go ahead and call
them.
Note:
Several people have e-mailed me and said that they called the CIA and the
people there said that they never heard of me. What did you expect
them to say? Now don't make me reveal anything more. I can't
be responsible for what could happen if you became a risk to national security.
5.
Where do you live?
See the
answer to the question What Do You Do for a Living? I can't
tell you for security reasons. Besides, you can probably figure it
out for yourself, if you really want to know. And, while I trust
you, this is the internet, and I don't really want to get stalked by some
pervert. Kids, that's a lesson for you.
6.
Miscellany
What
else? Well, I'm a Druid-Catholic (hey, is it my fault that the Church
discriminates and says I don't have a soul?). Politically, I guess
you would call me either an anarchist or an apathetic dog. As long
as that cat Sox is in the White House, don't expect me to care -- and Buddy?
The first dog should be a beagle.
Let
me remind you that a fictitious beagle named Snoopy has been a candidate
for the office of President during several elections. No electoral
votes yet, but I'll be helping with the campaign this time around, so who
knows.

Who Designed This Web Page?
My boy
Bill did this page (don't worry, I'll redo it when I have some time).
I did the rest of them -- refer to the copyright notice.
8.
What Do I Do If I Have a Question For You?
If
you want to know anything else, you will have to e-mail me at maxie-beagle@satterlee.org.
Don't be surprised if my boy Bill answers for me. Make him
do the hard work, I always say.

Enough of this. Take a look at some pictures of me:
