 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.

2.  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.


7.  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.

9.  Enough of this.  Take a look at some pictures of me:
 
 
Maxie's Easter Picture
This picture was taken by my boy Bill on Easter.  While he seemed to be quite amused, I did not share in his levity.  Of course, if it makes the poor guy happy...Outside of having to play the Easter Beagle, it was a great day.
It was a very Merry Christmas in 1997.  The bough was much better than the Santa hat that I refused to wear.  My Christmas web page was a big hit with lots of visitors.

Maxie Beagle Summer '97
A nice summer day, and I was sitting in the yard enjoying myself.  I think I look pretty cool in my bandana.
Here I am with my girl Colleen and my boy Bill. Maxie and Boy Bill and Girl Colleen
Maxie working on the Web Page
My boy Bill and I have been hard at work revising the web pages.  Here he is reviewing the work schedule with me.  He's been saying I work him too hard.  I see empty space on the calendar....
Bill just can't keep up with everything.  I'm updating the To Do list and getting ready to write another book review.
