As decreed by

cybergypsy, I must tell you all that Lance and Cooper (or is it Cooper and Lance?) visited me at work and it was the highlight of my day. Though they insulted the bears :(

It's Cooper and lance...and yes, we did insult the bears. The stuffing process, while amusing...is somewhat morbid and grotesque. Especially for little kids. You jam the skin of the poor dead animal onto that giant hypodermic needle-like-shunt that protrudes from the side of the stuffing machine. Then, depending on how soft the child wants the toy, you continuosly ram the limp, lifeless toy over the needle to re-engorge it with cotton or down or whatever you use. The whole time the little child stands ther watching this horrific spectacle while stepping on some little foot peddle that makes the machine go so that, deep down inside their slowly warping minds, they know that they too are a small part of this perversion of toy making. Fuckin' pre-school taxidermy. Then you give them a little velvet heart to shove inside, what is supposed to become, thier new best friend. Here buddy bear, have some guts.
And don't get me started on Cancer Bear. Some half-assed, perverted Care Bear knock-off. And the way you had him behind glass, locked away seperate from the other toys and on display like some two-bit hick & trailer side show freak. What is he? a plague victim? You make me wanna wretch.
We were at the mall again today too, but we didn't stop in...looked like a mad-house.

LOL. I guess it's all how you look at it. I always thought the process was rather perverted, since 90% of the employe-- er, Bear Builders - are women, and they spend hours each day moving their hands up and down over a long steel rod.
