My bird flies out of Bangor with the 101st Air Refueling Wing. Those P-3s used to fly over myy house on approach to the Portland Jetport, doing touch and go landings. I probably became a plane nut by growing up at that house. P-3s and Delta 727s, several times a day.

Thank your son-in-law for me. I appreciate his service.

I didn’t realize Polar Bears had a drinking problem. Caused by the stress of global warming and melting ice?

I'd rather take my chances here in the forest than in the city!

Is it legal to sell alcohol to polar bears?

I dunno, but in Alaska it's illegal to give alcohol to a moose.

Great pic!

We don't have polar bears in Maine, thank goodness, however:"

My uncle was recently in Churchill and witnessed teens on snowmobiles chasing the bears away.

Thomas Mangelsen is an outstanding wildlife photographer. I ordered my print from one of his galleries at Denver International Airport.

His photos are beautiful. I wanted to buy them all!

We don't have polar bears in Alabama, but I learned that same lesson when I was a kid courtesy of a doberman pincher...

You never know how fast you can book it until you feel that first snap of fangs bearly miss your keister.
