Where to even begin... I thought I had more time to mock, now all I have is a list of things I'll miss.
When I first met Coyote he was collecting debts for a loan shark up in Philadelphia. He was just a small time club fighter but... Wait, wrong story.
It's been a long ride sir. Filled with laughter, learning, failure and breaking every rule(no seriously...I have a list remember?) in the book. Through the red X's, the Potter pictures, and people who should never be photographed, I wouldn't trade one single second of it. I'm one of a handful of people who has quite literally read every...single...entry. Hiding behind that persona that is Coyote and looking beyond the poop jokes I see the genius. I've met dozens of people who either don't understand funny or in a misguided way believe they are. You are among the few who really are.
Your diligence to post thousands of words a week, even on holidays, is a testament to your work ethic. I can only recall a single handful of days you didn't and it was either due to hazardous weather, illness, or me threatening you if you didn't take a day off. I don't want to call this a sad day, because this is more of a new chapter in your book.
Okay, I'll be serious. This solemn moment seems to call for it. We'll miss you, Coyote. Lots. So, through laughter and tears, and even though I'm heterosexual against my better judgment, I say...
thanks for the mammaries!

Shame to see you go, was one of the few good things to happen in the morning everyday reading your twisted version of the world, only notablog I ever read daily, and it was a great one.
And this new format does SUCK. The comments were as funny as the post itself sometimes, and that will be missed.
So in the end, all I can see is, Long live the church of "The"!
This is sad news, indeed. I looked forward to your column every time it came out and I would regularly forward them to friends for a good laugh. Now where am I going to see shots of women with enormous breasts, dressed in a wet paper towel?! I mean, do they even have things like that anywhere else on the internet? Oh wait...
I suspect you will loose a fair few members over this unneccessary change too.
Coy, seriously, thanks fella. For a yank, you're alllllllright.
Im a serial flitter on the interwebz but this has been a daily visit for me for longer than I care to remember. We've had laughs, we've had tears, we've had people totally not getting my humour and getting angry *giggle*, but most of all we've had each other.
...
I am NOT confused! Im married ffs!
2009 will be a colder, darker, less funny place than the last 3 years have been, and I will miss you.
