The Bear has a Maine accent? I was expecting more Canadian or Eskimo. I guess I’ll just have to grin and bear it.

Of course! Its happened in the “Bearing” Sea. Where else would you find bears?I love Eddie’s stories. I always try to read them out loud – to get the full effect of Eddie’s accent.

Captain Eddie went to this particular Comic Strip Club to sea a Polar Dance. Startled to find the dancer bear nekkid.
