What the wise woman said.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Well, also, we were had previously had a very contentious episode with a community member who suspected a new community member was someone (perhaps the only person) we ever banned. The person with suspicions ended up leaving on a very bad note, and later it turned out he was correct. I can't imagine anyone bringing it up after that.
Also, we know the story wasn't that it was a were-monkey, just a regular monkey. right? Which seems ridiculous, but not as impossible as a were-monkey.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
In non-were monkey news, the building management of my office park has starting bringing in food trucks twice a week. Today's was Thai food, and it was really good, but now I want to eat all the Thai food in the world, even though I just finished lunch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I suspected a lot of his stories had to be exaggerated for effect
Sure, and really, who cares? Until we do!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The joke was the he had been turned into a were-monkey, after being bitten by a regular one.

Yes- I was just afraid that the people who weren't around thought the joke part was what we believed!

No, I got that, but I always thought the monkey bite was code for something.

GC, we take him to Water Whisperer (no really) [link]. The 10-day intensive has been pretty wonderful for us. If you go, tell 'em I sent you.
Ah, you're the third person to recommend them. Must look into it! Thanks.
In the lying liars who lie story department, years ago my brother dated a young woman who claimed to have ovarian cancer. He was at her house for Thanksgiving and her dad was thankful for many things, including "good health" for all of his family. Yeah, pretty big tip off right there.

There was certainly some backchannel discussion about Gus before he "died". But as amych says, it would have been quite difficult to raise those suspicions on the board in public.
