Official TGS Business

Let it be known that the Big Two have officially decided upon a mascot for The Golden Spike. We have chosen a beast whose ferocity is rivaled only by his rugged good looks. A beast who will be loyal to the Spike through thick and thin, who will respect the Big Two always and represent them well. Without further ado, let us introduce this legendary creature:



His name? Spike (duh). Please join us in welcoming Spike into the TGS fold.

Also, as a postscript, I should note that there was competition for the position of TGS mascot, although it was relatively weak. Please see below the two runners-up:





As I told them this morning, tying for second place is like tying to be the first loser.


UPDATE: After further review, the first runners-up pictured above, have been determined to have actually been second runners-up, trailing not only Spike, but also this fellow:





Our first runner up (who admittedly has seen better days, but c'mon, he's better than the second runners-up) was apparently about as friendly as he looks.

I would like to emphatically point out that there were no cats in the running for TGS mascot. Dogs rule! (Just ask Sigfried & Roy)

SPIKE IS HIS REAL NAME. I don't know why you'd think otherwise.

I'm so distressed about Turk and Ethan (our second runners-up) losing to the chupacabra that I'm swearing off women for awhile.

Cute, single girls desperately clinging to college life in new luxury condos purchased for them by their loaded parents? Sounds just like Hoboken. My skill set should translate well.
