HeadPerformance
Oolong is so calm and patient -- he never gets angry when I take pictures of him. When I put various objects on his head, he stays still for a minute. This is just a result of an intimate relationship between me and Oolong. The main theme of my site is not to show these 'headperformance' links, and it's not my hope to propagandize nothing but the strangeness of his headperformance over the world. Oolong's headperformance-- many foreigners seem to feel it 'crazy', but Japanese people feel it just cute and funny. It is the difference of international feeling.
This turned up in another evening of Google Image searching. I encourage you to visit the site yourself to fully appreciate Oolong's versatility. The link at the bottom will take you to the main page, where you can thrill to the exploits of Oolong's successor Yuebing.
Of special note is the photo of Yuebing next to Oolong's grave, taken on the anniversary of his death, which nearly moved me to tears.

your decision to use the leaf-biscuit photo was misguided.
the potato wins - hands down. why can't anyone see that?

Yeah, see, the potato headperformance was the image I originally stumbled upon, but when it came time to choose a photo for this post, I felt that I should go with something that was less obviously an amusing rabbit and more of a dignified performance piece.
Note how Oolong plays to the camera in 'leaf pie'. His headperformance is selfless - all about the art.
Potato (and, to a lesser extent, apple) are crowd-pleasers for readers to discover on their own Rabbit Page visits.
