A YEAR FULL 'O' BEARS!
You may recall back in August when Mr. Wonderful (Matt, kiwi59) and i posed for the first annual St. Louis Show-Me Bears Charity Calendar. It was everybody's first attempt at this and we had problems, the biggest of which was the fact that most printers wanted to charge us an arm AND a leg which doesn't help when you're trying to raise money for charity, in this case Project ARK (helping pediatric AIDS patients) and the Food Outreach for AIDS patients. Not wanting to let this go south and since it was such a good cause, Matt and i took over the project, did the design work and found a printer who would give us a good price without making us order 1000 copies for an untested concept. They were introduced at Hibearnation and were a big success. If you would like to score one of the remaining copies, send a check or money order for $15.00 to:Show Me Bears

It will be sent to you in a ...wait for it... "plain brown wrapper"!! Matt and i are "Octobear" and you won't believe what he did with my hunting horn!! Surely it's worth fifteen bucks to see that...plus all the other guys posing in various states of undress. THE PERFECT STOCKING STUFFER!!
Here's a pic of Matt and i after the photoshoot. i still feel this way...and i don't even have any booze!
OH...and BTW, the Bears are a legally recognized 50-something-or-other charity, so this is considered a TAX DEDUCTIBLE CONTRIBUTION!!. Woofy bears and a tax write-off...what more to you want?
