Thursday Guest Spotlight



What? You were unaware that I had 2 pets?

I know, the lack of exposure that Cornelius Xavier gets on this blog is downright shameful.

Though he was mentioned briefly back in February, little more is known to the internet public about the unexplored life of C.X.

Where can I start? How about the fact that he is still alive almost 6 months after purchase? That's no small victory in my book. Yeah, maybe its morbid, but I held onto that receipt with a shred of doubt.
Naturally I want to protect the investment I made back in January, so Cornelius Xavier enjoys nothing but the finest in shrimp pellets and freeze dried blood worms. They keep him going on the long office weekends when the lights are all out and nobody is smudging the sides of his bowl with greasy fingers and foreheads.

With so much care expressed, you'd think I'd change his water a bit more often. But I'm convinced he likes it murky with an improper PH balance.

I think part of me knew that C.X. would outlast my time here in the office, so now all that's left for speculation is whether he will outlast the company itself.

Live long, my friend. You are cherished.

  2. If C.X. comes to an unfortunate end under OKG's watch, there will be hell to pay. He is like a son to be (not a firstborn like Maestro though).

  3. A look-a-like would be easy to come by should anything happen to C.X. You'd never know you were loving an imposter upon your return.
