I don't know how many of you have been following the story of Knut the polar bear, but metonymy just pointed me at the most adorable video.

Knut Out And About.

It's in German, which is CLEARLY the reason I'm watching it. To improve my language skills. Yes. Because obviously 'and now it's time for the polar bear to get into the bathtub' is clearly going to come up in every piece of Germanic classical scholarship ever.

Clearly we already came up with the solution when metonymy alerted me to the existence of this video:

the_lady_lily (22:08:50): i too WANT ONE
metonymy (22:11:01): everybody does
metonymy (22:11:06): we need to start a letter-writing campaign
metonymy (22:11:23): "dear genetic engineers: cloned baby polar bears that stay babies. get to work, stat."
the_lady_lily(22:12:34): heh. 'and do a couple that don't stay babies so we can do something about the species extinction too'
the_lady_lily (22:12:46): he is so sweet bumbling around on his little legs!
metonymy (22:12:57): he really is
metonymy (22:13:01): and in the bath?
the_lady_lily (22:13:13): swishing around like a cheerful small polar thingie!
the_lady_lily (22:13:15): am in love.
