Daddy's leaving again

The blog is on temporary hiatus. I apologize, but my mind is completely elsewhere. I'll be back in a week or two.

Daddy's Back

Are the Berenstein Bears Jewish? That's just something I've been wondering about.

If you've read those books and you know what I'm talking about though, don't a lot of those books seem highly improbable? Like in one the Berenstein Bears go for a drive. I mean, bears driving a car? What the heck, that just doesn't seem realistic. And in another one, they're wearing clothes. Those authors have a poor grasp of bears.

There was one that really got me where Papa Bearenstein mediated a conflict between the children by introducing ice cream to the situation. While this is all well and good, the conflict would have been more constructively mediated if Papa Bearenstein had used reflexive I-statements paired with gentle, but firm consequential punishments. I mean come on, we can only suspend our disbelief so much.

Clearly bears don't know nothing about nothing.

Please bare with me. My sense of blog comedy has been a bit off lately. Updates coming soon, I swear. Please don't break my legs.
