SKUNK-GUY: Museum Second Room

Maureen established the After Midnight Club, in which she opened up her phone lines after 12:00 am. Whoever wanted to, could call in and shoot the breeze. (A precursor to the modern day all talk radio format.) This gave Skunk-Guy Carte Blanc to report in regularly several times a week. A unique rapport developed between the two, and interest in Skunk Scouting actually began to grow.

LISTEN TO MAUREEN & SKUNKGUY

Enrollment into the skunk squad was accelerated by a young listener in Jackson Center, Ohio. Her name was Maria Toomey. She had written in with great enthusiasm and was delighted when Skunk-Guy had promised to swear her in on the air. Maria's letter opened the door for other listeners to write in and express their loyalty to crime fighting and all things stinky.

Like Carol, before her, Maureen was sworn in over the air on the anniversary of her birth. (Here again the number of the actual birthday celebrated remains cloaked in mystery.) From then on, Maureen began to direct any and all inquiries about joining this elite group of crime fighters. The Hey-Day of the Skunk-Squad was off and running. The pitter patter of little skunk feet was not exactly a thundering herd. It wasn't until a very special voice cried out that the Skunk-Squad found the breath of life.

A unique subculture was rising up in the summit city led by a black and white spectral figure. Crime fighting campaigns were staged over the late night radio broadcasts. The oddity of it all got the attention of listeners far and wide. With it all, Skunk-Guys notoriety was expanding. He had been asked to speak at The Toast Masters of Toledo, He endorsed The Dock Street Exploritorium, and was Invited to be a judge at a burlesque beauty contest, (which he turned down as a matter of principle.) As the momentum of it all was still climbing Skunk-Guy received a letter that changed everything. Maureen had accepted a position at a Wisconsin radio station. The door had closed on the Skunk-Squad and the Stinking Stalker became a vague legend...Until now.
