It is cute; but for some reason, as adorable as I think rabbits are, whenever I see one I get a flash in my mind of that giant claymation rabbit from the Twilight Zone movie. Completely irrational, I know. Still, the one in your photo is cuddly, my semi-phobia aside.
I don't think I've seen Night of the Lepus. I looked it up; sounds like a great B-movie--men in giant bunny suits pretending to be giant man-eating rabbits!
RE: The scene in the Twilight Zone movie--I forget the name of the segment--but there was a kid that could make anything happen. In an effort to impress a teacher, he had his "uncle" pull a rabbit out of a hat, only the rabbit was hideous and grew more so as the scene went on. Eventually the teacher agrees to help him learn how to control his power.
Coincidentally, I was watching a show the other day that listed Night of Lepus as one of the top 3 worst movies of all time. And yesterday, CNN featured some "Planet in Peril" photos--one of the animals was a newly (1999, I think) discovered rabbit in Laos (http://www.wcs.org/media/image/image-966351817.jpg). Not as big as the one in "Frohe Ostern." :) I see a theme here ...
Yes, the Donnie Darko rabbit is up there on the creepy scale, but that just adds to the excellent movie.
Yes it is, although it's hard to show perspective through a shop window...now if I'd time to go inside and POSE her/him...maybe with Liz hold it in her arms--that might have worked :-)...
I grew up in Gray, which is about a half hour north of Portland. My parents still live there, but I won't be getting home this Christmas. I'm participating in a poetry reading at the National Mathematics Meetings in D.C. in January, so that's our trip expense for the winter. (Anyway, Gray is . . . not the most exciting spot in the area. I miss my grandmother's house by the ocean in Harpswell--if I could live anywhere in the world, I'd probably pick that spot.)

However, I do sometimes miss this mood: http://www.flickr.com/photos/35025258@N00/3101037287/in/set-72157611150480148/
That picture really nicely captures a particular kind of snow-bound quiet. And the sky.
I also regret that I never did make a trip further North East than the Adirondacks. Maine's very pretty.

Amazing how 3 months below freezing can permanently later one's mental longitude.
