Our bitter, cold hearts? Melted! Electronic Arts Los Angeles sent the following email to employees:

As many of you have seen and heard by now, we have 8 new additions to the campus. Our mom and dad ducks (that hang out in the water feature) are now the proud parents of 8 lil' fuzzy ducklings. Please be respectful of them and observe them from a safe distance as mom and dad are feeling a bit protective of them, as you might imagine.

Please refrain from littering or putting out cigarettes in the sand and water feature area.

Please don't feed them Chimichonga or the Thai Curry Shrimp (today's Entrée Feature) or any other bizarre thing.

Please keep your distance and enjoy the young'uns while we have them.

So darling, so cute. Word has it that today the family of ducks relocated, and the EALA facility was just used to breed. Yeah, when I think of EALA, duck sex isn't the first thing that jumps into my mind, but I'm not a duck either, so. Brian ashcraft
