My hometown has a gorilla mascot for a vacuum cleaner store. Why? Good question, maybe because they're hairy? Tough? Mean? Everything you want in your vacuum. The store used to be located on one of the busiest intersections of town. With all that exposure, gorilla was kidnapped. Not once or twice but several times. He was always returned; not sure what ransom is these days. The store now has a new location on the north side of town and they wheel him in every night for safe keeping. This guy has been through a lot so next time you're vacuuming take a moment to give thanks for the gorilla mascot.
