The chronicles of CNN's boot camp known as The VJ Program. We Peon Warriors began meeting here to share humiliating and humorous stories about early encounters with CNN anchors, directors, producers and brutal cafeteria employees. We divulged what it was like to be broke, foolish and referred to not by name but by function. And while we've moved on in life...the inner Peon still remains.

SAD PANDA AND THE DUANE READE BAG
So-
Apparently, the Sad Panda featured above has been spotted all over Manhattan. He's been known to shuffle about listlessly on Wall Street, in the West Village, and on the subway.
I'm not quite sure why he's so sad. He seems to be getting a bit dirty, so I doubt he's bathing much. Another sign of depression.
But I do know that Sad Panda's propensity for carrying a Duane Reade shopping bag provides evidence for my Duane Reade shopping bag observation.
If you didn't read this piece in the New York Times the first time around, check it out now. This article is New York social studies at it's best...

You just can't get enough of the furries, can you Saara?
I saw him way back on 2/12/09 on the R train. He got on at Rector St heading uptown. Didn't carry a bag that day, but he did sit in a stool in the front of the front car...
I wonder what the deal is with Sad Panda? Good luck whoever you are.
