You can buy a cute, stuffed animal and also name a star.

Here (http://www.gingerbreadjungle.co.nz/Gifts/ShiningStars/tabid/246/Default.aspx) is the combo package:

Unless you are an astronomer I'm guessing you don't get to name stars every day but when you purchase your very own Shining Star and log on to the website using the secret code found inside the sealed hangtag, you can register and name your star with the International Star Registry.

[I saw this in our SAAA (San Antonio Astronomy Assoc.) email group. Now #1 in the Night Sky Network, thanks to their hard work in public outreach.]

I was sending a rebuke when I realized I was sending it to someone by the name of Balloons at the Gingerbread Jungle. Somehow that takes the edge of my chastisement impetus.

(snip)... by the name of Balloons at the Gingerbread Jungle.
Rainbow Monkeys, Rainbow Monkeys
Oh so very round and super chunky
Bringing love wherever they go
Everyone is made of the big rainbow!

Oh, red and orange
And pink and blue
Rainbow Monkeys, Rainbow Monkeys
We love you!.

I think it would be fun to rename a star like 'Ras al Ghoul'. I was thinking 'Bernard'.
