Feds to probe circumstances of ‘Tweet’ the giraffe’s death - BostonHerald.com

Quote:
Tweet appeared in “Ace Ventura” and “Evan Almighty,” and in ads for Toys ‘R Us. He died Friday after wrapping up his scenes in the new Kevin James comedy.
Probably not frontpage worthy, but thought toy lovers might be interested.

That's actually kind of sad. I personally preferred the cartoon Geoffrey to the live one.

He got wind of the current TRU issues of lowering shelf space for groceries over toys, while marketwatch is reporting a rise in toy sales. Go figure.

But besides that, this is sad indeed. T_T

Look what I got in the mail today.

Somehow, I don't think the party is going to be much fun.
