Catching up with Andy and his gang over at Bear With Me, things have been brewing over at the Phoenix bar in the past few weeks. In the past while, we have learnt what Bernie's phobia is, that there might be a softball team with possibly the weirdest team ever put together, and that there is this super Amazon woman who is coming to help Forrest and her name happens to be Mo. As for what's going on in Andy's life, you just have to check all the back issues of Bruin's famous cartoon.

It's a truly beautiful thing when you find someone to love and they in fact love you back. It's as if the universe just 'clicked' into place; like fitting all the pieces to a huge puzzle. Of course ~ just because the universe is in sync with your sexual and spiritual needs by introducing you to the man of your dreams ~ this does not mean that the universe is going to explain your love to others, especially to cold and calculating mothers. Read Bear With Me.

Take a kiss...

2 men kissing in public. I think the idea is sexy hot especially when it's 2 incredibly handsome masculine men kissing... and yet it's unlikely I'm going to see such an occurrence on a day to day basis... yet when I see 2 straight people kissing, I can't help but think "they have it so easy, they can show affection at will, why does my love have to be... hmm... I dunno... secretive...?". It's a good question, not an easy answer, however thank God that this planet is HUGE and that there are places in this world that you can kiss a man and yes, others will look on with affection, with care, with understanding. Nobody can stop mature men from kissing ~ nobody HAHah.

Ahem... ok... I'm just ranting, please go visit the tremendous Bear With Me cartoon done by the incredibly hairy and handsome (he needs a few pics on his site, hint hint), Bruin.

From Bruin: "Does Constance have a cogent argument, or is she just blowing smoke?".

The other day I mentioned this link I found called Gay Bears: The Hidden History of the Berkeley Campus and I wasn't really sure what was going on because it spoke about Bears and yet there was nay a Bear to be found on that page. Well Bruin of Bear With Me emailed me as to explain why these un-Bearish people are calling themselves Gay Bears. From Bruin: "The 'Bears' reference is to the school, or more specifically, the school's mascot, the Golden Bear. If you look, you'll see that California's state flag features a large brown bear. The school has simply taken it on as its own. It's a sports team thing".

The spring time signifies the weather warming up, the snow slowly disappearing and love is abound. Enter Andy from Bear With Me ~ he's in love with Paul. It's a beautiful moment in cartoon history. However, the spring time is also a season that fools us all for when we believe summer is sneaking around the corner, an icy cold front from some northern mountain descends upon the land and puts shivers once again in the hearts of men. Seems Constance can do this as well.

Mondays means getting a cup of something hot and catching up on the latest episode of Bear With Me. Seems everyone is happy with their positions at the new Phoenix bar... except for Forrest. His many years of driving a cab seems to have made him just a little too restless for a desk job. Now if you need a place to chat with some others about Bear With Me as well as with the author Bruin, then check out this shout block by Inside Bear Magazine.

In the past couple of episodes of Bear With Me, Forrest has been bummed about something yet cartoonist Bruin hasn't told us why yet. My only guess from reading the comics is that Forrest didn't get to drop his pants at any point during the opening of the new bar since he is a bit of a 'pig' (kind of like another Forrest I know) but who knows why Forrest is hating his job so we're just going to have to wait until later to find why Forrest is so blue.

In other news, Bear With Me is just looking better and better with each passing episode. Bruin has mastered his digital stylus and sketch pad in a matter of weeks.

ps - I know how to cheer Forrest up ~ he should listen to the latest Foul Monkeys' podcast.

Now that the problems with Tearoom Tony have been Paulorized, something is up with Forrest... not me, you silly raccoons... I'm talking about Forrest, the red headed bald Daddy in Bear With Me. You know when something is eating up one of the characters when they lose their 'Bear' look and Bruin draws them in as regular looking guys. However, having the word *sigh* loomin' over Forrest while he's looking all bummed kinda speaks volumes as well.

Seems we're only going to find out in upcoming issues so make sure to bookmark Bruin's site ~ and the 1st thing you should be doing on Monday mornings is loading up the cartoon to find out what's next. It'll be like religion if everyone does it, right?

Last we left Andy's gang over at Bear With Me: Paul - seeing red - stormed thru the Phoenix bar with a glare that would scare even Hussein's ghost. Paul's mission? To take care of some business in the washroom. Now, to be honest, I'm not really sure what's going on but it looks like something big and fiery just 'splorted' on Tony's shoulder. Splorted? Yes, splorted. Actually, I might use that word the next time I want to snag me a Bear ~ 'Your splort or mine'... or not.

Is Paul shake, shake, shake... shake shake shakin' his booty...? Actually, I think Paul is actually going to shakin' down the house. What am I rambling about? Head on over to Bruin's Bear With Me comic serial and you'll be all in the clear... and... off topic here... is it wrong to get turned on by a comic book ass... I mean, just look at Paul's perfectly Picassian ass, it's just asking to be grabbed... erm... I need to go stick my head in an ice bucket, be back later.

Lately I've been feeling the need to explain each Bear With Me strip, so let me kind of explain Bruin's newest one: Andy helped open the Phoenix bar and now it's opening day (nite). Then some guy said he needed some 'assistance' in the washroom and Andy thought the guy was disabled or something and innocently followed him to the can only to discover that the only thing this guy was needed assistance with was his zipper. So Andy was insulted if anything after he realized he wasn't there to help the guy after all, then he bumps into Paul who's had a crush on Andy forever, and Andy weeps in his arms, then they confess their love for each other. Finally they have sex (I think... or maybe just heavy petting), now it looks like Paul is on a mission to clear the toilets of this tearoom tickler. It's best you just go read the cartoon for yourselves.

The word 'love' has been thrown around so much throughout history that it's hard to explain exactly what 'love' is, yet we all know what 'love' is the second we're in it (as in - I'm in love). In these instances, love is more of a feeling than a word.

That being said, being in love feels great when you're in it, but it's still only a word for all those around you who might be skeptical to whom you just fell in love with... such people as your family or good friends who always hope the best for you. In other words, some people might question your choice in love. Enter Constance, mom of Andy in Bear With Me.

Bear With Me has reached its 200th episode (and oops, I made a mistake last week when I congratulated Bruin on his 200th when in fact it was his 199th). I can go on and on about Bruin's great comic, which I've done in the past, but the best bet is to just visit his site and read all the comics from #1 which he started 5 years ago (January 2002). Congratulations on 200 great episodes and 5 years.
