More on Tricky Ricky – an Austin reporter sheds some light on a doubtful tale about Wiley Coyote and “Ranger Rick”…
I don’t doubt that there are snakes and coyotes lurking in the less manicured stretches of the Estates Above Lost Creek, where Perry’s $10,000-a-month rental mansion is located, and that the coyotes may have posed a threat to cats and the Chihuahuas in the neighborhood. My own neighborhood in the hills west of Austin is just a few minutes from Perry’s gated enclave, as the vulture flies, and the terrain is similar, though the rents are considerably lower. Over the years, folks here have lost several cats to coyotes. So I don’t doubt that Perry may have spotted one of the critters at some point on his morning jogs and thought about taking a shot at it. But that’s where the story gets a little iffy.

Nice to see the spotlight of the national press turning it’s attention to Perry and his tall tales. Knowing that the gun he used is considered a “ladies'” gun doesn’t do much to enhance his already iffy sexuality. Nothing is worse than a evangelical “Christian” who’s also in the closet.
