One particular result of Mark's promotion of this wonderful holiday is that a New York City-based singing telegram service,
The Furrier Courier, offered free singing telegrams, delivered by someone in a gorilla suit on NGSD, to the first five responders.
So, I asked myself: Wouldn't it be Googley to have a gorilla-suited singing telegram delivered to some New York City Googlers?
Why, yes...yes, it would. Especially if they didn't know about it in advance.
So Wednesday morning our gorilla-suited singer serenaded a weekly meeting of Googlers, including ones videoconferencing in from Mountain View, Kirkland, and Dublin.
Mark also celebrated the day appropriately--by having Furrier Courier
serenade the MAD Magazine offices.
Now if only I can manage to talk the powers that be into a National Gorilla Suit Day
Google doodle--oh well, next year.
