Many of you have expressed concern for the TLM Bear. He told me to say thank you for your best wishes, and he misses all of you.
..well, all except for that man my dog Keti felt compelled to bite in the leg that one day. For the record, Bear was on Keti's side. That guy deserved a good bite.

You should all know that Bear is back to tromping care-free through the woods. He is thankful for the personal growth and acculturation he attained during his time in the Big Little City.

But at the end of the day, he's happier now. He is a bear, after all.
