Giraffe at the National Zoo


Giraffe at the National Zoo

Jimmy, Amanda and I were looking this guy over. I believe it was Jimmy that said, "Wow, great CGI." And he was right. This animal is so strange looking you just don't expect him to be real. Giraffes look like something cooked up in a Hollywood special effects studio. What was God smoking when he decided giraffes would be really cool? I mean they are cool, and beautiful and a little rediculous all at the same time.

I love his look of hauteur. I guess all that haut helps ;D. You have the best pencil texture, Mr. C.

An old friend of mine used to explain why giraffes are so scared of even low barriers: "If, when you were born, you fell five or six feet the ground, you'd be forever scared of falling again, too." Very nicely done, Chuck.
