I guess I could breed with a panda to keep it's species from dying. Get me a crate of vodka and we'll talk.

He's not an immigrant! He's a citizen! He was BORN here!

In before the "If the pandas won't fark to save the species, then let them go extinct" crowd. They can't appreciate their own dwindling numbers, damnit. What're you gonna do, show them a histogram?

Course he was nothing more than an anchor baby.

I like that the phonetic pronunciation of his name is Ty Shawn. Sounds like they picked a more "urban name" than chinese.

Tai Shan is a really famous sacred mountain in China.

I'm going to have to talk to my parole officer about getting my record changed to "forced breeding". That would look so much better on paper.

I mean, yeah, too bad for the panda. Yeah.

But we've never seen his ACTUAL birth certificate... and I have a signed affidavit from someone who saw him get born in Mombasa, Kenya...

Well if he had admitted where the automobile was, he wouldn't have had this problem. Or married his big sexy girlfriend.

You know who else kept Asian-Americans in cages.

Meh, you keep him, and you'll just want to keep another one in an hour or so.

If you'd fill in your profile and turn out to be a farkette and not just Spike Lee fan, you might just be able go find a substitute.

FTFA: Zoo officials announced Friday that Tai Shan (pronounced "ty shawn") will be leaving the Smithsonian Institution park as soon as January or February.

I see they chose a name that is not only Chinese, but can also be easily transliterated to a modern African-American name. Way to reach out to the urban youth.

Seriously, though. Why did the author feel the need to include a pronunciation for the pinyin? It's not as though the average American reader will be able to say it correctly, anyway.

Damn. I failed to read all 14 of the posts before posting that.

Does just being a naturally furry man count? If so, then yes.
