What type of bear is best?

Wrong...BLACK BEAR.

It seems the black bears in this rescue up north (the best bears, according to Jim from the Office posing as Dwight) are doing just fine notwithstanding the raging wildfires in the UP (that's "Upper Peninsula" for you non-Michigan types).

Good for them. Apparently the guy who runs the rescue was told to evacuate, but he wouldn't leave his bears. How cute.

Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica.

The bear post reminded me of the classic scene from The Office this season where Jim impersonated Dwight. Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica.

So in honor of that (and because NBC takes their stuff of of youtube and I can't post the video here), I am awarding you all one Schrute Buck. One thousand Schrute Bucks equals an extra five minutes at lunch.

If I could only find a Stanley Nickel.

And the award for best pun of the day goes to...

...Ioana Tomescu of the Austria-based Four Paws Foundation. Yes, folks, in a story about bears moving to a sanctuary she had this to say:

"Our aim is to make their life more bearable in their remaining years"

I'm not even making that up. She wants their lives to be more bearable.

I think this is a great thing, but I couldn't overlook that statement. I mean, come on. More bearable? Ha!
