The (Ongoing) Adventures of Colin the Bear

i think Colin is slowly growing up now ... hard times ahead for you Anty!

Would be worse if he was a girl though

I think you're right, Alex. He's entering his teen years and has already had to go into rehab for his gambling problem, has a 'piercing', walks around without his pants on, and brought home a girlfriend to live with him. He's growing up 'wild', it seems.

Anti - have just found Colin and read through from the start - WONDERFUL - had to keep going and getting another teddy to see the pictures as they were getting jealous and wondered why they weren't allowed out with me.

I've been nagged

Some of the gang insisted I stop and take a photo of them ogling the bride - I won't be able to control them for the rest of the evening! They were soooo jealous of Colin.

Heehee, LOVE the pic Fangman!! "Gather 'round the screen, boys!"

Fangman · Nov 25, 2007

This young lady was Sooo overcome with the exposure of fur on the beach, her nose blushed quite pink. I don't think she will be safe on the bed tonight - she might keep every one awake!

Sure is quiet around here without Colin and Coleen.

Fangman, you're killing me here! That pic is great!!! Love her pink nose, hair bow, and her outfit! Much less the love note to Colin. What a cutie.

Chiller, Colleen settled in quickly. She didn't have anything to unpack (I mean anything! Gotta get her some clothes), and was soon partying in the bar. All the boys wanted to buy her a drink. I fear she's gonna break Colin's heart, but we'll see.

I have tears running down my face from laughing so hard!! I love it!!! All my bears are now jealous though....they keep saying something about neglect at not being the center of attention in pictures....LOL

Colin - Please send help and notify the Society for the Cruelty to Teddy Bears

I know we can be sent to the Naughty Step but exiled to the garden for Christmas is a bit too much as all I did was to run off with a pot of flowers!

Antarctican · Dec 5, 2007

"Hay", that bear is awfully cute!! He probably just thought there was some mistletoe in with the flowers, and he wanted to surprise the pretty bear with the pink nose and sweater...so cut him some slack and let him back in the house, okay?

Fangman · Dec 5, 2007

He would like to come in the house but worried unless sparks from Fangman's pipe might singe his straw.

As the Penguin Queen's family gathered 'round the telly to watch the holiday season classic programs, Colin was finding it hard to see. "Hey, down in front!" But with all the chatter and merriment going on, and the tinkling of ice in glasses, no one heard him. So he took matters into his own hands, and climbed up the nearest tree (as bears do). Of course, the nearest tree was the Christmas tree. A little prickly, and a few bulbs got smashed, but it ended up being a great vantage point. And after the show was over, he 'hung around' for a while, unnoticed, to eavesdrop on conversations.

The next day, Colin went out on his new sled and went whizzing down the hills. "Wheeee". (But he was a little unsteady from the previous day's festivities. As the snow on his Christmas outfit shows. Ah well, a few face plants builds character).
