I don't know...I think it's a real animal. It's beautiful, whatever it is.

Unlike most 4 legged animals standing on their hind legs, it has a natural looking stance.

My kids would know him as a hunho, by the way. Which lots of you guys know too, look at the icon for your Mozilla browser. Hunho means firefox in Chinese!

This is not thrown at MarkC, because he does have some useful knowledge in his head. I hate the "duh" thing so here goes.

We have a guy at work who speaks like that, far to often for comfort. He has a first arrival American name: "Keeper of Useless Information". I occasionally find him making a mistake and naturally will call him on it.
 
My "duh" was directed at myself, because I was sitting here looking at the thing and thinking Tanuki(Japanese Raccoon dog), and I had just seen Red Pandas at the zoo a couple of weeks ago.Then enlightenment struck and I felt "duh".
 
OH OK - I thought it was directed at the crowd. Sorry.

Almost like the Jimmy the Grinch yelling and echoing in his cave: "I'm an idiot!" and of course the echo is "You're an idiot!"
 
The expression that annoys me is the overuse and misuse of the word "like".
Not a day goes by that I don't like hear someone use it like twenty times in like a minute. Like, ya know? And then I go, "Really? Was it like that or was it actually that?" And then the person is all like "Huh?".
