Did anyone see the story that CNN  did about Bears in Munich. (Last night)

I came in on the tail end of it...but, this man sells teddy bears on his website and then he takes 'your' bear around and takes pictures of it at various places in Munich (beside a center fountain, in front of a famous Chapel, etc) and then sends you the bear and pictures...as tho the bear had been on a vacation.
He charges 125.00 a bear.

BUT...the good thing is that, our beloved Teddy Bears were getting recognition on prime time CNN.  Even the anchors were talking about it after the piece was over.

I didn't hear the whole website address...but it had something to do with Bears in Munich...I tried to pull it up but got nothing.

This seems a bit like the cabbage patch idea and according to CNN he is selling bears like crazy.  Good for him,
I hope it rekindles the bear rage.

I heard about him somewhere as well. Nice to see bears getting the recognition they deserve, although, I have to admit. I thought it was a very silly idea. I would never pay for it. But hey, obviously, people will pay, so good for him
