Friday Chat w/ Vlad

Hey, it’s Vlad. I’ve got a real treat for all my Vladiators out there. Our guest chatter today is Mikhail. Those that have been out to the center undoubtedly remember Mikhail. He is sometimes referred to as a Ninja fox due to his dark coloration but the correct term would be melanistic. He is also a friend to everyone and is a real straight shooter…kind of an elder statesman around here.

Hi Mikhail, welcome to my chat. Hi Vlad, great to be here. So Mikhail, the reason I want to talk to you today is I’m having problems with Panda. She is a real thorn in my side. She is always trying to undermine me which hinders my ability to lead the others. I mean we owe it to all the canids out there who are less fortunate than us to be the best ambassadors we possibly can be and that little she devil panda just makes it more difficult. You may have heard that she convinced the others to get me a lump of coal for Christmas. Everyone, including myself, thought that was a great gift. After I did some research I found out it’s not great at all. It’s what’s given to naughty boys and girls. When I checked Panda search history on her computer I found “what to get that total jerk in you life for Christmas” and coal was mentioned frequently. Now Mikhail, I may be many things…you know like wise, handsome, athletic, etc. but naughty is not one of them. Seeing as my combat skills are superior to Panda’s I could just take matters into my own paws and teach her a lesson but as every exceptional leader knows, diplomacy should always be attempted before any escalation. So Mikhail, could you talk to Panda and explain to her what a gift I am to all of you guys and have her knock off the funny business?

Well Vlad, it’s funny you should ask that. You see Panda came to me a few weeks ago asking me to talk to you. She said you are the most obnoxious, pretentious, ignorant cockalorum she has ever met. I actually wrote it on my foot so I would remember…footnotes. Well Mikhail I’m speechless, we both know none of that is true. Do we Vlad?? Think about this Vlad, the only true wisdom is knowing you know nothing. Sleep on it.

Vlad out.
