The random zebra head

A resolution of mine is to clean and purge the house, and we came across this gem I purchased for fun in 2000.  Remember this sock puppet 'spokesman?'  The commercials for this now "dot-bomb" company were hilarious.


Even though the puppet is going for a whopping 99-cents at online auctions, I'll still hang onto him for nostalgia. 

However, this zebra thingymajig...not so much:


I don't even like zebras, and this is kinda freaking me out.

Too bad you don't have any 'white elephant' gift exchanges to go to. . .that zebra would be just perfect ;)

HiLLjO said...

That's a great idea!
I guess the zebra ranks right up there with creepy dolls!

He doesn't look like a very friendly zebra... I see your concern.

That thing looks heavy....imagine if one of the kids threw it - Griffin could have his first black eye of 2011!

seriously, haha you crack me up with all of these "dolls." where do you and your family come up with these things?

that zebra is very creepy. don't like it at all.

I passed on an award to you. Don't normally do the blog awards and stuff, but thought i'd pass it along to recognize some people who i think are pretty trendy. :) I've really enjoyed reading your blog the past year.

Oooooohh!!! I have a pets.com keychain....somewhere. Haven't seen it in 6 years or so.

And GUESS WHAT?????

I got a laminator for Christmas! Woo-hoo! But now I'm at a loss for what to laminate. Too. Many. Choices.

That is a terribly undernourished zebra. (*_*) And I agree with Cassie and HiLLjO - in fact, it kind of reminds me of the doll from that USPS "If it fits, it ships!" commercial in terms of the creepy factor...
