12/31/2004: Happy polar bear new year

Undertoad · 12-31-2004, 11:39 AM

Kalluk, a male polar bear at the San Diego Zoo, tosses a toy Thursday, Dec. 30, 2004, in San Diego. The zoo created a winter scene for the bears by blowing 24 tons of snow into their exhibit and gave Kalluk and his sister Tatqiq a couple plastic polar bear toys to play with.

But the reason I picked the image was his perfect form, and for what it says... Xmas is over, toss the decorations now.

Or, perhaps, this ain't no polar bear.

I think he's miffed because HE didn't get the Coke commercial.
Happy New Year, one and all.

I notice his hair is greenish. Wonder if he has algae in his hollow hair too?

magilla · 12-31-2004, 06:14 PM

I think he wants the scarf.

Who dumped all this snow here?...
and I can't eat this... give me seals..

xoxoxoBruce · 01-02-2005, 09:27 AM

Seal? No, no....that's just ice cream.

I might as well admit it... I really don't get it?

Must be because I'm Swedish.

Wormfood, I think what we have been given is the punchline of a joke which will become funny to us, too, [hint] when someone tells us the joke [/hint]

Looks like you've blown a seal.

It's an automotive reference.

I also was laughing when I read the line.

The version I'm used to starts, "An Eskimo was enjoying an ice cream cone as the mechanic worked on his broken down car ..."

One of my favorite episodes of the old "Laugh-In" TV show ended with Dan Rowan and Dick Martin carrying on this conversation -- sorta kinda. It sounded wierd, and somehow familar. Just as it finished, I realized these were the punch lines of a dozen or so dirty jokes, all clean by themselves. ROFLMAO.

I don't remember that one...or they just went over my pure as driven snow, head.

Welcome to the Cellar, Juggle5.
