    Hey Ashrita! Nice blog! Good up on ya to do awareness of orangutans. So many animals are sold on the black market. Alot of people just thingk "out of sight and out of mind" in their lives.

    i'm here investigating pogo-sticking because i woke up from a dream a coupla hours ago about me in an off-road pogo stick race. i've never been on a pogo stick in my life. in the dream all the contestants had protective padding and light helmets with face guards and we raced over uneven terrain and streams, up and down mountain sides and rocky fields and meadows. it was a really beautiful dream ans really exciting. i wish there were an actual event like this. i think ppl would go for it cos it would be so different.

    Dear Mr. Orangutan, I enjoyed reading about your skipping adventure. I have to say you looked rather dashing on that motorcycle. Just curious, did the elephant gossip about you alot after the record attempt? After all I see she managed to get in the group photo. ANyway, sorry to hear about what happened to your parents, but at least your trainer seems like a great person. I've known Skippy for a few years, he is really rather harmless...he just likes sharing the world records with different creatures around the world. If you ever see him again, ask you to tell you about the time he did the sack race in front of a bunch of sheep near Mount Rushmore...you think you thought he was nuts, the sheep were besides themselves with him bouncing on all that fresh green grass. Anyway, congrats on being part of a world record...and keep up the blogs.
