‘Tocktober!

by Meg on October 5, 2008

I know we’re a few days into ‘Tocktober already, but we’ve finally got a good specimen for you. In fact, Sender-Inner Esther L. points out this photo would be EXCELLENT to show again as we transition into Nosevember. I’ll remember that.

Polarbear

Another San Diego Zoo gem—thanks, Esther L.

Dude, those are some seriously big feet!

4 Erebella 10.05.08 at 2:01 am

Wow, look at those huge feet! That’s a dirty bear. He’s so dirty, he’s ashamed of himself.

I see 4 limbs, a ‘tocks and a nosicle. Such abundance in one photo = decadence!

Please preserve the polar bear’s habitat. Let’s not “Drill Baby Drill”. Let’s find a way to power our transportation w/renewable energy. Solar, electric, wind power. My favs. How about you ordinary bears?

I’m losing my ‘tocks for
investing in stocks…

Bear bottom!

do they hibernate in captivity as well?
or is their bio clock too screwed up?
needs to know.

the polar bear at the oregon zoo is so sad, they had to put down his/her friend and it just rocks back and forth all the time (at least while i was there) it was one of the saddest things i have witnessed…. i cried.
ugh.

I don’t think polar bears belong in San Diego…

Phoo – I’m not fond of bears but that is a cute one.

12 Katrina 10.05.08 at 11:11 am

Good golly that is a wonderful picture. Nose, toes, tocks, socks, just too much to bear. Plus the talio- ok, must break away from picture slowly….mot nice to stare at bear- you know, bearstaring; it is a dangerous hobby.

13 Gail (the first one) 10.05.08 at 12:34 pm

@Totalee: LOL!!!!

14 chanpon 10.05.08 at 12:46 pm

Fuzzy ‘tocks and hidey face. How can this not motivate the world to solve global warming?

15 blair 10.05.08 at 1:46 pm

and when tocktober is over, you can recycle that picture to ring in nosevember!

16 Yitzysmommie 10.05.08 at 5:25 pm

LOL@ Totalee & Katrina – bearstaring, indeed.
This is an excellent representayshe of ‘Tocktober. I propose that in the next calendere there be 31 pix of tocks for the month of ‘Tocktober. ‘S only right, y’know?

17 berthaservant 10.05.08 at 6:20 pm

I can barely tell which end of the baaar is which.

18 carmen 10.05.08 at 6:32 pm

love it!

19 Katrina 10.05.08 at 6:47 pm

Totalee- terrific!
And ‘a Pox’ on them all, “filty-dirty, moneygrabbing , bnch of leaches!”,(said in a Norwegian accent!)

Yitzysmommie- YES! What a fabulous idea! I heartily endorse this. I am a ‘buns’ woman- and Killer Corgi does the ‘Frog Dog’ thing, and her tocks have 3-4 inch fluff on them! OOOOO OOOOO OOOOO! Must scritch tocks now- see ya!

20 momof2kitties 10.06.08 at 12:18 am

Well class, it BEARS repeating that this is an excellent example of bun flaps! Highly prized, I might add.

21 Sharon Wilson 10.06.08 at 4:11 am

HAHA! That tail totally looks like the tail of the big stuffed polar bear my sister and I used to have when we were kids!

22 arielle 10.06.08 at 4:49 am

he’s like “i can’t look!”

he looks like me when i’ve had a late night.

that’s ok, mr. bear. i feel ya. (gives bear a big hug, then curls up into big warm fuzzy tummy for nappage) let’s sleep it off together.

23 Sarkat 10.06.08 at 10:35 am

So, what comes after Nosevember? Neckcember?

24 smo 10.06.08 at 3:10 pm

pawcember. not that it really makes sense. but a month dedicated to paws would be splendid!

25 Kris 10.06.08 at 3:28 pm

How about Deercember?

Love polar bear’s pose. My dogs do this all the time. “I can’t bear it!” haha
