After DB self-deleted his OP on Monday afternoon, August 26, he has made only two posts since: one, on Thursday, August 29, about "Patrick the Miracle Dog"; and the other, on Friday, September 6, about "The Loudest Dog Bark in the World." Both of these posts were in the obscure, off-the-beaten-path Pets Group, and in neither post did DB himself offer any comment of his own. The few people who frequent the Pets Group may not even be aware of the colossal kerfunkle that DB caused with his hiding-the-remote thread. They're only interested in the doggies and teh kittehs, not in a Fox.
DB has not DARED to post anything in General Discussion (or even in the Lounge), where people WOULD ask him about the Case of the Missing Remote and DB's present employment, or lack thereof. He MAY, at some point, re-emerge on GD, and maybe even talk about what has happened--the temptation may be too strong for him to stay away forever.

The shut-down Fox jumped over the lousy Doug.
