Another Goofy Christmas Stunt

Just when Christmas couldn't be manipulated any further, the Build-A-Bear Corporation is using their website into scaring our children into thinking Christmas may be cancelled due to global warming. So, let's see-- we have one group of people being told they should participate in the 2010 census because Mary and Joseph willingly participated in the one so graciously administrated by the Roman Empire. Now we have the folks who make money off of kids doing their work for them in having to assemble their own stuffed toy, scaring their little customers into hysteria.

I have a great idea. Let's encourage our children to save Christmas by reducing their carbon footprint by not building a bear.

I find that to be a "bearable" solution to the problem.

There are a few moments joy to be wrung from wondering how Fearne and Reggie on the Christams Top Of The Pops would cope with the awkward gear change from the Christmas number one to warming up audiences just switching on for the Queen’s Christmas Message, but that’s about as far as the joy goes.
