Oh, well. But did you know that this company sells . . . more than 450,000 (hand-made) teddy bears per year? That's a lot of stuffing!

And as for my wager that the company will discontinue the "Crazy for You" teddy bear immediately, was I wrong! This is what the company was quoted as saying:

"This bear will remain an offering
for Valentine's Day. ' "

"The company said it would discontinue
the bear, but not before Feb. 14."
