This is from an email forwarded by my mother who is tired of my attempts to persuade her not to vote for Senator McCain. It is her way of changing the subject:
The heaviest tips the scale at just over 24 pounds, while the lightest weighs about 11 pounds.
The pandas are due to stop suckling soon - just about the time they'll start learning to walk.
Once weaned, the panda cubs will attend panda kindergarten.
In the meantime, more little ones are expected at the centre since 38 giant pandas were artificially impregnated.
Now pass them along because
they're just too cute to keep to
yourself.
The cubs are weighed and measured every five days (see pics)
The brood includes five sets of twins.
The Sichuan Wolong Panda Protection and Breed Center is dealing with the results of a breeding boom where 16 pandas have been born.
This is for those that haven't seen the 16 baby pandas. SICHUAN , China -- One zoo in southwest China has its hands full with 16 baby pandas.

My mom has a big thing for babies and puppies and kittens. Probably a good thing as I was a complete shit as a kid and would not have survived to adulthood otherwise. My mom and I at least talk about politics. I don't even bother trying to influence my dad. He is a lost cause and just ends up pissed off with a red ass. We talk about motorcycles and rock n'roll.
Today is a bear day in more ways than the stock market as Kasten has a booby of a bear post on her page.
Maybe I'll slap some horns on the dogs and pretend the schnauzer horde are a herd of cattle. Not sure how much patience they would have with horns and photo ops.
Odetteroulette, so cute it's criminal? I'm still waiting for someone to explain panda kindergarten...
Good grief they are cute. I can't look away.
Every time someone endeavors to draw me into an unwanted political conversation, I'm going to interrupt with "Hey! Have you heard about the pandas?'
This will spread virally. Soon we will be able to wear panda lapel-pins, which will indicate our unwillingness to be forced into poli-talk. Now, what will the mascot be to signal our lack of interest in people's religious views? A koala?
