In progress: Putting humpty-dumpty Thomus the hippo back together

Reader Matt P was at TechShop SF yesterday and came across the scene above. In case you don’t recognize him, that’s Thomus the hippopotamus who was kidnapped from in front of his home in 2009.

Police recovered Thomus – in pieces – this year, and returned him to his owner in Sutro onhealthy valium diazepam Heights, who pledged to restore him to his former glory.

Looks like the work is underway and Thomus is once again, a full hippopotamus! I wonder if he’ll be home in time for the holidays?
