This Week in Swag

No matter how long the winter… Swag is sure to follow.

Here in New York City, folks are wondering whether it’s winter or spring. Over the past couple weeks, we’ve basked in bright, warm sun one day only to shiver out of the subway into icy rain the next. Recently, the swag trickling into Studio 360 has fit perfectly with this fickle March weather.

The Philadelphia Zoo sent us this wintry, LEGO brick with a polar bear to tell us about their upcoming exhibit, ‘Creatures of Habit.’

The exhibit opens April 10th and will include life-size, endangered animals made out of LEGO bricks. And this LEGO brick opens up into a box!

While we’re waiting for the ground to thaw, Firstlook Studios sent us these hemp seeds for the upcoming film, ‘Leaves of Grass.’ The movie stars Edward Norton as an Ivy League professor who gets mired in Oklahoma’s drug underworld while investigating the murder of his twin brother (also played by Norton).

While I don’t know if these seeds will take root in my windowbox, I’ll be interested to check out the film when it opens April 2nd.
