Birdbrains by Thom Bluemel for April 26, 2010

And pick up your rifle, Sam!

Good Morning Thom and Everyone!

Good Morning, Birdbrainiacs!

That is one formidable bear…. he probably has humanskin rugs in his den!

That has to be the world’s biggest bear.

Negotiating? I am offended by the utter stupidity of letting those hunters carry guns! Who knows the damage they could do?

Good Morning Supreme Leader and Fellow Birdbrains!

Alrighty, then!

Good Morning, Johanan, Llewellenbruce & LuvH8!

What is that by the bear’s elbow?

I am offended by the fact that they have rifles and they still let the bear get that close!

LONEWOLF It ain’t no face. Can someone open this child-proof bottle for me?

I feel manly when I catch a $3 fish on $800 worth of gear.

Well, these guys seem to be the not so bright kind of hunters. So if the Bear takes them out, it will do us good who still in the gene pool. If bear listens, it will break through in science and one weak bear will be out of their gene pool. Comes out on top in end for everyone.

On the other hand, they could be the fittest of their respective species around, therefore just smart enough to be dangerous, and take each other out. Lose-lose.

“Evolution” in the Real World: It’s not always the fittest that survive.

Just remember: you don’t have top out run the bear, just the other guy while he’s negotiating.

Likely they were hiking to a hunting spot and thought the bear was a hill until they got too close.

then again could just be the usual urban hunters we get in the MI UP when deer season starts. Armed to the teeth, drunk to the gills and clueless in the woods.

I can’t see the forest for the bear.

Mr. Bear could you please stop salivating, I’m getting soaked down here?

First thought–like Johanan Rakkav and Llewellenbruce–that is one hunking big bear! A dire bear? Bigger than any grizzly I’ve ever heard of.

Second thought: I don’t see any faces, except maybe one in that big tree on the right, even with the bear’s nose. Maybe the bear scared all the faces away?

A guy was out in the Montana prairies when he came around a hill and met a bear. He was so shocked, he turned and began running even before he saw his only hope: a tree about 70 yards away. Unfortunately, it had only one branch, about 60 feet up. Still, he had no better options, so he ran, and as he got near enough to the tree, jumped for all his might in a vain hope he’d catch the branch somehow.

Unfortunately, he missed.

But that turned out OK…he caught the branch on the way down.

You negotiate, I will go stand about 8 miles away and see how it plays out from there.

Hmm, Today’s The Argyle Sweater seems more bird-brained than Birdbrains. Go figure.

I think I get it. He’s saying that a father-in-law is scary and intimidating. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!!!

Bmonk - that reminds me of a camp song

Lonewolf - Hello

My pills come with new lids, you can turn them over and they aren’t childproof anymore!

Drools like ‘im, too. Almost as much hair.

No one mentioned that the first guy dropped his gun- great bunch of comments though, Brainiacs!

Hello, Vldazzle–Good to see ya here. I believe I mentioned it the first post. :^)
