And now for your 'Bear History' of the day... as we take a moment to look back in time to see the cuties which came before us, and to check out some great beards from centuries ago. This is composer Georges Bizet (Wiki - photo), born 1838 (some 40 years after Mozart) and died quite young, at the age of 36, on his 6th wedding day anniversary. So yes, a straight Bearish man, however that does not mean I cannot appreciate his accomplishments.

To be honest, I don't know Bizet's work all that well. I have heard of 'Carmen' but not of his other work. I'm going to have to find his music, close my eyes, and lose myself in what many hail as a classical master.
