My Anti told me all about the baby Gibbon at the Denver Zoo.
It's the cutest frickin' thing EVAR!!!11!
Posted by jpoulos at October 12, 2005 01:55 PMBaby Gibbon?
Two ZZ Top entries in a row is a bit excessive, don't you think? And he dosen't look a thing like his dad.

We are all over the baby animal stories here at 9622.net.
Posted by: tizzie on October 12, 2005 03:03 PMAt first I misread that as "Debbie Gibson's baby" which was a bit, well, frightening.
Posted by: Slack-a-gogo on October 12, 2005 08:53 PMWell, yeah, because it would be Mojo Nixon's two-headed love child.
Posted by: Crash on October 12, 2005 09:48 PMIf you don't got Mojo Nixon then your store could use some fixin'.
Posted by: tizzie on October 13, 2005 10:20 AMGot to hang out with Mojo back in '96.
That man found the local ABC store with amazing (and frankly a bit scary) celerity.
Posted by: Dagobert on October 13, 2005 10:34 AMHe once signed an autograph to me that said:
"RAVE ON SICK PIG!!!
Love, Mojo"

The cub eventually will have 42 teeth, ouch!
Looking at its size 08/01 till now & walking on all fours, say more like a teething toddler today. Any pictures when it was born. iirc, really tiny tiny at birth...the size of a newborn bunny or smaller.
Apparently the baby panda's first nickname was "Butterstick", 'cause when he was born he was about the size of one.
Posted by: Vidiot on October 13, 2005 01:56 PMThe fact that we've never had shoutouts written on cleavage is either due to excess decorum or a lack of cleavage.

Well, I don't think it's lack of cleavage...

That was not what we had in mind, no.

I actually remember "jpoulos is the only poster in the world whose double". It's part of one of the most generous ass-kissings ever dispensed by one Miguel Cardoso.
I believe the original is something like "jpoulos is the only poster in the world whose double-posts are better than the original!"
Come back, Miggy. Come back.

Posted by: kaf on October 14, 2005 01:48 PMAhhh, the brick.
Last I heard, the brick was scheduled to be placed "in the spring". This was some number of years ago. So either it's a scam, or there's a brick with our name on it.
*does research*
Heh. This person found their brick, so it's apparently legit.
Mapquest says Mendon, MA is a 45-minute drive from me. I'll tell you what: I can't go this weekend, but I'll try to make the trip next weekend.

Sorry Fes, in Toronto right now. Cleavage shoutouts will have to wait until I get back to la Citta Eterna. Mwah.
Posted by: romakimmy on October 14, 2005 02:49 PMI'll be danged. I have on my refrigerator, right now, two free passes to the Southwick Zoo (good through 2005) which I received for donating blood a couple weeks ago. John, I'll try to get out there myself, if you can't make it.
I also owe you an email, but I've been putting off finishing it. It sits in my "drafts" folder, mocking me.
Posted by: yhbc on October 14, 2005 04:11 PMI'm going to plan for next saturday, the 22nd. Hopefully the weather will break by then.

Downsides of the Typical East-Coast Weather Pattern:
1) At some points during the year, some form of precipitation will come from the sky for 6, 7 maybe 8 or 9 days in a row. If you're lucky, it's only rain, and it's not horizontal.
Upsides of the Typical East-Coast Weather Pattern:
1) The leaves turn pretty colors in the Fall.
2) We don't have a "wildfire season".
Two to one, dude. You lose.
Posted by: yhbc on October 14, 2005 09:47 PMI don't think it wildfires where I live now *knock on wood*.
It's so foggy and wet all the time, I don't think it could.
But I agree it is better to actually have seasons...it's just that I'm not familiar with them myself.
Posted by: kaf on October 14, 2005 10:59 PMin Toronto right now.
*coughs*...you're in the continent? From the rumour mill, you should call, you know, someone in your family.

That's just freakin' spooky, y'all.
Also, Mojo Nixon, circa Frenzy and Bodacious, was a goddamn wonderhchicken hero. One of 'em, anyway. Saw his shows in 4 count 'em 4 different countries.
He got kinda sucky later, though.
Posted by: stavrosthewonderchicken on October 21, 2005 04:03 AMA Photograph-the-Brick Update:
I had planned to make the trip on Sunday (the last day of the season for the zoo). Unless I can get out there tomorrow AM (unlikely), things aren't looking so good.
Oh, all right. I'm less than 12 miles away. I'll go tomorrow morning before it starts raining. I have to take a load of brush to the dump anyway.
