    So when I was pretty young - 9 through about 12 - I collected Beanie Kids. I bought my second one just because I thought it was pretty. I came across my collection in a cupboard not long ago, and discovered that second Beanie.

    Its name is Mardi.

    So, after being horizontal with laughter for about fifteen minutes, I checked out the Beanie Kids website and this is what it says about this Beanie Kid:

    I had four thoughts at this stage:
    1. Why did it take me nine years to figure out what it meant?
    2. Beanie Kids have just become infinitely cooler.
    3. I want to live in Rainbow Land!
    4. Are there any others?

    So, I searched the website for more rainbow Beanie Kids. And I came across this one.

    Is this part of the Homosexual Agenda that involves corrupting children into our ranks? You know what I mean. We're all meant to be part of it.

    I want that bear.

    (Mardi is now sitting on my desk being my mascot.)

    Thats great, We had something called Beanie Babies and they had lots of diffent animals all decorated and colorful but pretty much the same. My step-sister had tons but i doubt she still has them.

    Oh that's funny. I'm surprised Focus on The Family or the American Family Association haven't caught on to this! Or have they and I missed it? LOL

    aw, I never had a rainbow one =( I had one, a little dalmatian named Spotty. He followed me everywhere, and I mean EVERYWHERE. He now sits, very very grey, on my night table. There was another Spotty too, although that one is still pearly white. He was Mom's backup in case the real Spotty ever went missing, I would be too young to know the difference. But anyway /rambling... that is the coolest bear!
