pigs

I'm wondering if this is a St. Petersburg craze, or if pigs are taking over the world. In the last week I've seeing pigs everywhere. Children are wearing hats that look like pigs. (The hats are cute...but why pigs?) Stuffed pigs were not only a huge hit at our White Elephant Gift Exchange, but gifts of stuffed pigs were also tossed to the skaters at the Grand Prix International Figure Skating Finals. Calendar choices for 2007 are kittens, puppies or pigs. What's up with this? Anyone else noticing an uprising in the popularity of swine?

In the good ole US of A, we're looking forward to a December release of the live action/computer animation remake of Charlotte's Web. Pigs here are somewhat logical... But there? Would you get the movie hype?

I was going to say Charlotte's Web but Kerry beat me to it. Did you get to actually go to the figure skating finals? We went to worlds once when it was held in Oakland, CA. I love to watch figure skating!

Pigs are everywhere in Ukraine, too, because 2007 is the year of the pig. I have seen ads for the new Charlotte's Web around town, but all my friends seem to be excited about the year of the pig.
