This newspaper's name came into being quite by accident. Over the years as I have found myself in the predicaments that have so plagued my and my company's efficiencies and rightful position in the community, I, in addressing the circumstances, would often respond to the interference with the phrase "I am like a Porcupine...you step on the Porcupine and you get the quills".
After a little thought I realized that this was not a bad name for this Internet company newspaper! I needed a forum that would allow me to respond to the overt and covert destructive criticism and defamation that I have found myself being inundated with especially in recent years.
In so choosing the Porcupine as the "mascot" of this newspaper it occurred to me that it was, perhaps, perfect in defining the spirit in which I am trying to deal with my attackers!
The Porcupine is usually a low profile animal that usually does not bother anyone unless, of course, it is attacked. Porcupines are not aggressive to seek out fights but rather only respond to an attack by raising their quills on their backs and tails and then swatting their attackers leaving their quills impaled in their attackers.
The quills are usually sufficient discomfort so to abate any further attacks from their attackers!
It is with that note that I intend to write in this newspaper at this time. I really do not have the time to go about picking fights but am, like a Porcupine, just trying to survive! Yet, whenever I am attacked by willful and wanton hyperbole, maliciousness, prejudice, jealousy, defamation, lies and physical destruction I will respond with the quills. In this case the quills that are exemplified by the pen our country's founding fathers used when they signed the founding documents of this country.
In this 21st century those quills are transformed into the mighty medium of the computer, word processor and the Internet.
So, beware, "Tread on the 'Porcupine' and get the quills !!!"

P.S.: It may be construed that I have given too much information in these updates and the like but keep in mind that I have no other "secure" place that I can keep my information if something should happen to me! Also note that the people I have been dealing with are slipperier than a fresh caught coho on a hot summer's afternoon and thus I believe it would be better not to take a chance on losing the "fish"! The more people that know the less chance that the information, per chance, just might "happen" to get lost as other evidence has already!
