Talking

Hi,
Couldn't yet decide which name I like
most, as they are all new to me.

But this raju makes me laugh.
Translated into finnish
raju= violent, wild

Also if you heard of Pokemons one
of them is "Raju" and an other one
is "Persian", a really nasty looking cat!
I guess thats why Saudi-Arabia
has forbidden these toys.
Though, overreakting. Toys just
don't hurt anyone.
I admit, I don't understand this kind of
violent figures for children.
But one Pokemon is nice, she/he is
called Pikachu.

Bye,

Cami ~~~~~~ ¨ ~~~~~~~~
-soon swimming I hope-

I don't know why kids find them addictive but does anyone remember nano, those virtual pets? I loved them so much for a while and I guess pokemon is like that for these kids.

Guess so but pokemons seem more addictive then any kiddy cartoons we watched...
And the marketing that revolves around them stinks..

I feel bad fdor all the parents who have to maintain their kids status by buying them pokemon stuff.
