Along with libel, now. I have documented proof that you promised to pick
Conan up, and that you contracted with me to do it, then went back on your
word. I have the email where you offered me your cell phone number--and
where I asked if I might call you after you picked Conan up,and you
encouraged me to, when you had no intention of  letting us know that you had
picked him up. This was the only time I called you, and I can prove it. Best
of all, I have witnesses for all of this, and phone records, too.

You have admitted to lying, too.

Due to the emotional pain I have suffered due to my concern about this cat,
whom I have no proof was not euthanized or turned  over to a lab, I think I
have grounds for a suit. In any case, I've got some mad money laying around,
so lets have some fun. We will add libel, since you have suggested that I
made some sort of threatening telephone calls that I can prove I did not.
Then we will discuss your unwarranted attacks on my character--in particular
your suggestion that a mere figure of speech--in the context of an obvious
joke-- was a physical threat. I do not threaten people, Dan. I do not break
the law. In fact, it is my responsibility to uphold the law.

Or, you could just tell me why you lied to us all. You could even do it
privately. That is all I really want from you. Tell me the truth, and you
will not hear another word from me. Or don't, and get ready to play ball.
We'll take it to court, do everything all nice and legal. This is not a
threat at all--it is a promise--your just reward for lying to those who
trusted you.

You should not be allowed to lie to good people who trust you, and harm a
poor little cat that you said you would rescue, without being held
responsible for your actions. I am sufficiently upset to take it to court
now, since you will not even offer a reason why you did this.
I work hard. Everybody needs a hobby. You just became mine.
