As I wander through stores selling Christmas wares, I've noticed something. Something I don't quite understand.
There are all the Santas. And all the snowmen. And all the elves. And all the penguins.
Penguins?!
Don't get me wrong. I like penguins. Penguins are fun. Penguins are cute.
Penguins are inhabitants of the South Pole.
Santa lives in the North Pole.
So when, and how, did penguins become the new "Christmas character/animal"?
If we're going to embrace penguins celebrating Christmas, it makes just as much sense to embrace giraffes celebrating Christmas.
And what do the polar bears of the world have to say about all this?

I think it's all about taking advantage of that new talking penguin animated movie that's coming out. They must think people will be into the movie and want lots of penguin stuff.
