I realise a lot of the people here moved over from another web site. I popped into the FDP mostly for the Guitar and Amp mod pages because I thought there was a lot of great info to be found and there was some very talented people supplying that info. Never ventured into Moe's thread. So I am at a loss with the Giraffe thing. What's that all about?

I hung out in Moe's and I still didn't/don't get it.

One of those times the lottery was like a billion dollars, it was asked what you’d do with the money if you won. I responded, of course, that I would buy a giraffe. It took on a life of its own from that point. Mostly Leftee’s doing.

The real story.
Duffs were on special at Moes and pouring freely. Sandbagger, MikeEC and bunch of other Canadians were watching a hockey game and things were getting loud. Leftee, Leftymeister and Peegoo were arguing about who was the best songwriter of the 1970's and Leftee yelled out "Gerry Rafferty". That's when the drunk hockey heads turned and yelled "GIRAFFE?". "NO! I SAID GERRY RAFFERTY!" It went back and forth and things almost came to blows, but then everyone had a good laugh and the giraffe thing just kinda stuck.
True story. 🤥

If they tell you about the giraffe, they’ll have to kill you

I never got the giraffe thing either because I only read threads that interested me over there and I guess I missed that one. I do know that if I never see another giraffe again it will be too soon.

Giraffes? I do not trust them. Here's one named Bubba putting his Don Juan moves on my hunnie when we were at Giraffe Manor Hotel outside of Nairobi last year. I put a quick stop to the illicit liaison by threatening to send this pic to Bubba's wife. Giraffes look like cuddly critters, but up close they are *huge* and oddly dinosaur-like with the long neck and large head. They can be extremely gentle but they can also toss a person 20 feet through the air with the back of their head. Giraffe Manor Hotel: www.south-african-lodges.com/lodges/giraffe-manor/

I spent an afternoon at the zoo watching giraffe mating ritual, and it was amazing because the flirting and teasing on the part of the female was very obvious. She would walk away, then look back, allow him to catch up for a nuzzle, then skip away, look back, etc. This went on for awhile, they took their time, but she finally came through. And I must say that with giraffes it is not just the neck that is long!

Yeah, I have no clue whats up with the giraffe thing, I though it came from Peegoo visiting Africa and the critters were keeping an eye on him through his second floor window. I do know however that giraffe sock puppets go all the way to the elbow.

It could also be a lawyer thing. When I got married 30 years ago, one of the partners in my firm gave me a four foot tall inflatable giraffe.

Somewhere we have pictures of one giraffe drinking from the stream as another pees at the zoo. My kids were horrified.

"I spent an afternoon at the zoo watching giraffe mating ritual." and "One of the partners in my firm gave me a four foot tall inflatable giraffe." and "Giraffe sock puppets." Okay, now this thread is scaring me. Sort of like just prior to a plane crash: it's never just one thing that goes wrong. It's a chain of events that leads directly to the smoking hole in terra firma. Gravity is not a theory; it's the law.
