1600 pandas...cute.

1600 pandas on the street.  i don't get it.  but i get how taiwanese like these cultural related exhibits.  anything that's cutesy will do well.  anything that's free will do well.  and the paper mache panda's will be auctioned off and donated to charity...that's always a good thing...

and so i recently got myself involved in cali's finest.  i believe most branded things of status quo quality are relatively similar.  the rest is up to the marketing.  so i believe less in the item, more in the people.  i believe in vertical integration.  i believe in synergy and i believe in smokey the bear coming to asia.  i know the american look has been replaced by the korean wave...but nothing has out done hello kitty and all things cutesy yet.  plus, i think the shorts are great...
