The Bear and the Beer

-
Sometimes, my big city friends ask me, "What do you guys do for excitement?"

Well, here's the latest buzz from Hayward: Friday night, a bear made his way into the Marketplace Liquor Store, and hung out for an hour in the beer cooler. Apparently he is not a Wesleyan bear.

Yogi's great adventure made national news:
Bear Makes Beer Run in Wisconsin

Who says nothing happens in a small town?

The DNR officials came and tranquilized him. I hear they're taking him to detox.

    It wasn't Friday night, though; it was Thursday, or possibly early Friday morning--my daughter heard about it at school on Friday.

    I think he was definitely just a Wayward Wesleyan bear. He didn't consume any alcohol and was very well-behaved! Don't you think you should give him credit for keeping everyone out of the liquor store for 2 hours????

If This Is Not A Place. . .

If this is not a place where tears are understood, Then where shall I go to cry? And if this is not a place where my spirit can take wings, Then where shall I go to fly? I don't need another place for trying to impress you With just how good and virtuous I am. I don't need another place for always being on top of things; Everybody knows that it's a sham. I don't need another place for always wearing smiles, Even when it's not the way I feel. I don't need another place to mouth the same old platitudes; Everybody knows that it's not real. So if this is not a place where my questions can be asked, Then where shall I go to seek? And if this is not a place where my heart cry can be heard, Where, tell me where, shall I go to speak? So if this is not a place where tears are understood, Where shall I go, where shall I go to fly? -- Ken Medema
