"Please think of the real Bon...."

Through the miracle of modern technology, I am blogging to you from Sidekick in my Ford Bronco. I understand that images are beginning to be broadcast on television stations across the country, so I have asked Tac to post them for you here, as I intend to keep our loyal followers informed of what is going on.

"As of this morning, Bon is considered a fugitive of justice."

"As Bon's attorney, I am asking Bon to turn himself in. However, I can absolutely assure the police that Bon does not have a fake beard and is definitely not heading to the airport. Thank you."

To Whom It May Concern:

First, everyone understand. I have nothing to do with Don Knotts' murder. I loved Don; always have and always will. If we had a problem, it's because I loved Don so much.

Recently, Don and I came to the understanding that for now we were best to spend some time apart, at least for now. Despite our admiration for each other, we were different and that's why we mutually agreed to go our separate ways.

Inside, I had no doubt that in the future we would be close friends. Unlike what has been written in the press, Don and I had a great relationship for most of our lives. Like all long-term relationships, we had a few downs and ups. He was great in "Andy Griffith". Then he took the role of "Mr. Furley" in Three's Company. Probably his 'low-point', if you will. But I digress.

I took the heat after the 911 call came out because that's what I was supposed to do. I did not plead no contest for any other reason but to protect our privacy and was advised it would end the press hype.

At times, I have felt like a battered Playa, but I loved Don; make that clear to everyone. And I would take whatever it took to get him to make the movie "Chicken Little 2", even reversing time to bring him back to life when I originally thought he was dead (the first time).

Don't feel sorry for me. I've had a great life, great friends. Please think of the real Bon and not this lost person.
