A few weeks ago, I finally watched my first Werner Herzog documentary, Grizzly Man. It’s about a man who lived with grizzly bears in the wilds of Alaska for thirteen summers. The story is fascinating, and I highly recommend it. However, the ending… let’s just say that the “bears” I found below are much more pleasant.

Mama, let me know when you’re ready to replace that old oriental rug in the basement, I have an idea…
