I am fairly certain someone had that in mind when they designed him - he's got the same triangular shape, and the high-set eyes.

The affection for him is growing so much that WW is actually considering making a soft toy for sale. If they do, I'm totally buying one, as will many others, I think - he's a hit on quite a few blogs.

I know, rite? :) *snuggles*

*tee* My first orange marble cat was named Gossamer. Why?

He had the same reaction as the monster to visitors:

"People? AAAAaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!"

*sniff* Miss that kitty every time I see that cartoon.

I can tell you, I felt an instant connection, and I wanted one! Do you remember those "Esuvee" ads, the ones that the auto industry had to put out as a public service thing because they lost a civil suit over how prone they were to rollovers? It showed "Esuvee" rodeo, and herds of "Esuvees" in the wild. In the rodeo one, a little girl is shown holding an "Esuvee" doll - cute, plush, and awesome. I contacted the advertising agency to see if they were putting out a doll, but they never did. *pout*

They come out with these awesome things, the least they can do is make them into toys for us! ;)

Wax parchment paper - the kind you can use for your freezer or cooking. Iron (on low) it to the underside of the linen, and it keeps it flat for drawing.

Once the design is drawn on, peel it off, and it leaves no trace.

Yup - I'm all for nutrition education, but messing with Cookie Monster is just WRONG. >:(
