In today's edition of "count on the Seattle Times comment section for the crazy," we take a look at this simple story about a Spokane couple and their pet baby giraffe. Somehow, the motley commenting crew manages to touch on Bernie Madoff, Michael Jackson, the Times' lack of real news, giraffes' weaning schedule, Spokane's weather, and the selfishness of the giraffe's owners. It is a thing of internet beauty. Our favorite: "Stop this insanity! Giraffes are meant to wander the savannas of Africa, not to be gawked at in enclosed spaces thousands of miles from their natural habitat."
