The Five Friendlies

Like the Five Olympic Rings from which they draw their color and inspiration, the Five Friendlies will serve as the Official Mascots of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, carrying a message of friendship and peace -- and blessings from China -- to children all over the world.


Cute, aren't they? I wonder what the Five Friendlies have to say about mass executions, choking air pollution, repression of Tibet and the suppression of the Falun Gong spiritual movement in China. Probably not too much.
