Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid

We give them Hooters, they give us the "five friendlies":


"The five friendlies are an incredible little family carefully chosen by Beijing 2008 to represent all of China to carry a message of friendship to the children of the world," International Olympic Committee president Jacques Rogge said in a statement that was read at the ceremony.

"China is so lucky to have so many beautiful animals to represent the Olympic spirit," Rogge said.

The animals were introduced as Bei Bei, Jing Jing, Huan Huan, Ying Ying and Ni Ni--which, put together, translates to "Beijing welcomes you!"


Now that's what I call a trade deficit.
