I hear they need you Rumor has it that you're needed at work now -- That door has to be guarded - I'd ask for special compensation though. After all -- you are Spot T. Giraffe!
Tears This makes me cry, Spot. I cry for all those who gave their lives. I cry because your words and reflections are so poignant. I cry because there will always be war. I cry for lost ideals of democracy.
It's about time I, for one, have been worried about you Spot T. Giraffe. However, I must say that you are still as stunning as ever. What a handsome giraffe you were at the Lincoln Memorial. And so friendly, my my. It's been fun watching your adventures - but alas all of us have to return to work sooner or later--
I just hope your friends have a special space for you in their new digs. Rumor has it that they do!
Wow Wow, Spot T., you're the man!! or is that the male giraffe? What do they call a male giraffe, anyway? A buck, a bull, what??? It is nice to see you making so many friends. Is it the D.C. natives that are so friendly or the tourists? Aren't the founding principles of this country great!!! But, alas, we Americans forget. But I'm glad you got to visit the memorials to these extraordinary gentlemen and were inspired by their words. May democracy prevail!!!! Your admirer, Lucinda
It's time to come home! Spot - Good news! We are moving back next Monday! It's time for you to come home. We miss you! We have a perfect spot all picked out for you and are anxious for you to see it. I know your time out in the big world has been a blast, and we have really enjoyed sharing your adventures, but really! It's time. If you need help coming home, just let me know. Your cohort will get full amnesty from me. Can't wait to see you!
There you are! Spot,
We've been so worried about you, since you went incommunicado in December.
We were starting to wonder if a giraffe out in the deep cold spells we've had here
in Maryland would go into hibernation. But now it's clear that you were glued to
the television watching college hoops, and doing research on the teams, so that you
could put together a prize-winning bracket in the office tournament! Wow.
I'm impressed.
We have a nice spot (ha ha) picked out for you in the new office space,
which is shaping up nicely. I think you'll be pleased; you'll be the focus of
attention and the first "person" visitors see on their way in.
Good luck with the Sweet Sixteen and beyond!
Diane
A-ha!! Spot,
There you are!! Now I see what you've been doing all this time. You've
been watching college hoops and studying and researching the teams so
you could win the office bracket tourney. Wow. You really ARE trying
to get the full American experience, aren't you?? (Personally, I was
hoping you'd make some Oscar predictions, or show up on the red
carpet or something. There's still the Preakness to look ahead to,
I suppose...)
We all have missed you and your blog entries!! We were so worried about you.
Some of us did wonder whether you had gone into hibernation in those cold
spells we've been having, although no one seemed to know if giraffes would
hibernate. We do miss your expertise around the office. AND we have a
perfect spot (ha ha) picked out for you in the new office, which is starting
to take shape.
Take care of yourself, and good luck with your bracket. Maryland let
me down, so it looks like it might come down to youa
Everyone deserves a vacation now and again. Maybe your chums miss you too and would like to see you once again. Perhaps you should go home for New Years. We'll miss you though. I do love your postings. Give everyone a big Finnius D. Dog kiss for me and be a good giraffe.
Merry Christmas Hey Spot! Hope you are having a good holiday. Looks like you had fun at this memorial place. Maybe you can come spend the holiday in California with me.
Spot - You really must be better about downloading your pictures. We anxiously await your adventures. Have you considered letting your hair down some. Perhaps you should consider getting your beard, mane and tail groomed - Oh no you don't have a beard and only a teeny tiny mane - Aw Shucks Spot. I guess you'll just have to let them grow out of control. Some things just seem to be out of control don't they! Or maybe you should consider running for Mayor of Baltimore - I hear he overthrew the present Governor. Hm interesting thought. I hope you're doing some fun thing on Thanksgiving.
another oops? Spot, I have to ask: Have you been hanging around the mall in Towson? I was recently up there and saw a female door giraffe who, shall we say, appeared to be in the family way. I know you're enjoying a much needed vacation, but please be careful out there!
Your welfare Oh, Spot, I was worried about your welfare when I saw you were in the nation's capital. I mean you are from Africa, so I presume you are Muslim and, at the very least, an immigrant. Those people there who run things aren't very smart and now they can actually arrest you just because you might be suspect and send you off to secret prisons and torture you and you have absoulutely no rights; due process, habeous corpus, etc. You might just disappear! Oh, Spot, please be careful. You are way too valuable, so try not to stick out too much.
Spot - You certainly make a striking figure against the Washington Monument. I bet people admire you whereever you are. Too bad you didn't get a kiss :)
What's this about Vegas? Will you play the slots or the table? Woooh hooo - do you know when to hold and when to fold (cards that is). Maybe you can get some some other kind of action - if you know what I mean. And remember - What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
Until next time -
Can Spot come to movie or HH? Spot,
Your picture was beautiful and do you know that pink is my favorite color? THe animal print mixed with pink was just so personal. I can't wait to place the picture in my new office and brag about you. I am so glad that you took your sadness out to the beauty of our nation's capital on such a wonderful Fall day. Did you know that Fall is my favorite season? Spot, I promise that on the day that you decide to return to your wonderful job as doorman, I will attend the ceremony. And I do intend to go to HHs, parties and movie/dinner events so you can always show up there. Spot, Africa and you are always in my heart and that won't change. Can't wait till you get to Vegas!!
Finnius D. Dog Hm -- I seem to have hit the send button too fast on my last post. My paws got caught on the computer - it must be from playing too many games. Just as I thought you do make quite a dashing figure in the dixie cup hat and what a guy in the Naval shirt. You just get cuter and cuter. Maybe you'll find a Mrs. Spot T. Giraffe and have little Spotties Giraffe - Until then keep havin those cool adventures!
You have a friend in Mississippi Spot,
You should hire your own personal Webmaster to keep track of your fun adventures. This lack of atention to your site and groupies is disheartening. I for one would like to see better results! I hope to see a new posting soon or have you given up on us?
Sweet Sweet site Spot! I would like to offer my assistance as your official tour guide should you every visit Pennsylvania. I could show you some sweet spots. Get it? Sweet spots!
Well Spot - I see you made it to the Naval Academy - What happened to the Dixie Cup hat - You'd be so handsome with one of those - no wonder the female giraffes are after you - If I was a giraffe I might be too -
Hmm Spot, ever since you went to Hooters things seem to be looking down (oh no did I say that) for you - Man the torpedoes ;) full speed ahead.
Looking for a Mate! Spot,
I am a nice female giraffe looking for a tall, handsome giraffe such as you. You have ALL the qualities I am looking for ;) Soon, I plan to take a trip to your home, the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore. Lets get together!
YPkx1aF!
your friends at work... It's great to have you back, Spot! Everyone's been worried about you. You'll be happy to know that the rest of your herd has taken up residence in the new office. They were able to migrate across three fields...er, flipper cabinets...so there's plenty of room for everyone.
Labor Day Weekend I hope you have some exciting plans for this weekend. It's a long holiday weekend. I hear it may rain but the weatherman haven't been right for three weeks so soak up the sun. I'd stay away from Ocean City - too many people - they'd be gawking at you and that's such a human attribute. Of course humans gawk at my wonderful physique - I am a dog you know! Perhaps you should go to the Naval Academy - they have such cool uniforms - I bet you'd look sharp in one!
I originally hail from the savannahs of Africa, but moved to the U.S.A. for employment opportunities a few years ago. But I feel that I've been working too hard, and have only seen the inside of my office building. Therefore I've decided to take vacation, and hope to travel and see the sites of this fine country. Stay tuned for my adventures...... full info
