Roos

[plonq]

While I don't usually try to act as a shill for big companies, the new mascot in this ad is just too cute not to pass this one along.

Boing!

And a special bonus for xydexx, it looks like NYC has been overrun by inflatable roos. (Well, they look inflatable to me, but I'll leave it up to the experts on such things.)

[EDIT] The ad doesn't load when I try to view this through Firefox at work. It loads in IE, but none of the rest of the site works. I don't know why they bother to give us web access at work if they then go out of their way to render it useless.

They look fiberglass to me.

There's apparently a meme where cities give artists blank fiberglass animals (cows, horses, etc.) and then display the results around the city for several months. I vaguely recall hearing that this started in Zurich a decade or so ago.

Yep, we had the Raleigh Red Wolf Ramble back in 2001-02. Here's a site where someone tried to find and photograph all the wolves. There's was even a book published about it :)

DC suffered through Pandamania last summer. I never knew it was a bigger thing.

I've seen that meme in action (nodnod), but in this case it's not a meme, it's part of an advertising campaign.

Looks like NYC is in for a roo'd awakening!!!
