Cyndi and Stumpy said...: Sugar, Golden Laughs are the best kind!

Jan, I just saw it today for the first time, too.

Kristine, It's new to me, also.

Kari, there aren't many commercials that amuse me, but these do!

Deb, it looks real to me!

MM, It's almost as good as the Geico Wood chuck commercial!

Rottrover, As if regular ol' giraffes weren't cute enough, eh?

Elyse and Riley,I'm thinking we couldn't afford one and a Petite Giraffe might not be safe around Stumpy.

Ruthie, Cute as a button!

Deborah! Back at ya!; March 25, 2011 at 4:30 PM
♥♥ The OP Pack ♥♥ said...: Well, it won't be coming to Dirtville - it isn't black and it isn't old:) Thanks for that info.

Real or not, that little guy sure is cute.

Sandra, I'd love to have those kind of artistic and creative talents!

Sallie, maybe the giraffe is one of alien's pets?
