It seems like yesterday, but was in fact 77 years ago, that Coolopolis first employed our animal friends in its typing pool.
A few pairs of eyes went misty at yesterday's editorial board meeting when this image of King made the rounds. The 8" X 10" glossy turned up in one of the drawers of senior security guard Sarto "Freshie" Lanteigne's desk after the ol' tippler passed away in his sleep on duty last week. Freshie was crazy about King. But when the constant flicker of newfangled fluorescent lights cost King his eyesight, we asked Freshie to put a bullet in King's brain. It was a business decision, but it smarted -- it did. Freshie took to the drink soon after. [Disclaimer: Freshie was under stress unrelated to his duties. -- Coolopols Legal Bureau.] We're grateful that large primates with chips in their brains have stronger eyes.
