Big Dan Cooper says 'Arrgh!'
This forwarded e-mail from S.C. House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Daniel T. Cooper, a very important and dignified gentleman, was in my folder last night, but seeing as how I'm on vacation, and was at the moment more interested in trying to find a good, used pick-'em-up truck at thestate.com (shameless product placement there), I didn't open it.
This morning, back at the coffee shop that is a front for a perfectly legit bakery (there was a modest line of puzzled, but well-behaved, folk at the counter a moment ago wondering why they weren't being served, while the counterman was very busy back in the bakery dealing with deliveries), I did read it, and got a smile, and now pass it on to you:
I pass this along, as requested ...

Arrgh. I have never been "Danny Cooper". Even at 2 yrs old. Please tell him for me. I hate that name

So in your blog headline you call him "Danny" yet again. That's downright disrespectful, and, accordingly, puzzling.
What did he do to chafe you?

Nothing. I thought it funny. I thought HE would think it funny, too.
But lest anyone else take it the way you did, I've changed it. The headline no longer reads, "Danny Cooper says Arrgh!"

Here's hoping he's warm to Big Dan. That does go the other way from Danny, I think.
