    • Well done boxie..did you know about him..I only found out about him when I picked his name..he died in a plane crash with Will Rogers..he was a pioneer in plane travel. All the clues were about post, and mail..pony express..the cartoon character was wil E Coyote..who would jump out on , well not you..but the road runner.

              • Well Rumpelstilskin was an imp who turned straw into gold, and made bargains so he could do it, the last one was he wanted the queens first born child.so the only imp I can think about would be Donald Trump..plenty of gold..money. Anyway it's a start.
