Today's smorgasbord has been brought to you by the same people who gave us the 0bama 'administration'.

And the Bear Demographic is pleased!

Well, between this and the feller who advised us not to eat Ebola-infected feces I’m getting all sorts of good life advice today.

I blame Disney and Bambi for anthropomorphizing wild animals for the masses.

What we have here are Darwin events about to happen.

"A recent visitor at the site said she saw dozens of people taking selfies with the bears, who were unafraid of the group."

And that's the most troubling part of this story. A few idiots getting themselves mauled taking a vanity pic with a wild animal is no skin off my nose. But bears acclimated to humans as a result is a real problem. They're more likely to intrude on inhabited areas, or approach tourists/visitors with food, etc. No good can come from that.

If you've got the time and tolerance for a little foul language start at 2:50.

Bears.....nature’s friendly tour guides.

“Mr. Bear, may I have my photo taken with you?”

“Yes, but it will cost you an arm and a leg.”

“How much, exactly, is that?”

“One arm and one leg. What’re you from San Francisco?”
