The Friendlies

Above is a picture of the friendlies, the official mascots for the Beijing 2008 Olympics. My husband's company is an official sponsor of the Olympics so they were sent a bunch of swag, these included. He was planning on giving them to the children but I intercepted the key chains beforehand . Because really, what's a two year old going to do with a key chain besides try to eat it.

  3. haha... you are right! It is too dangerous to give them to a two year old kid. Even if they don't do that, they will just destroy the key chains. The key chains are cute though.

  6. The Tibetan Antelope one is hysterically hypocritical:

    "Yingying's flying pose captures the essence of a species unique to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, [one of the first animals put under protection in China]"
