It hasn't even been a week since we last checked in with Sad Panda, but readers have been flooding our inbox with their old photos of the lovable bear spotted on the subway, in Times Square, and all over the city's mean streets. The two above photos, however, were taken just moments ago in what appears to be our subject's natural habitat: the Financial District. More specifically, he was sitting on his stool at Bowling Green and Broadway, south of the Charging Bull. Life isn't all bamboo and blog love, however, looking more down and out than usual, it's apparent that even Sad Panda can get a case of the Mondays.
