A big grizzly bear is chasing two Divinity students through the woods and was gaining ground. One of the students asked "What will we do?". The other said "Let us pray. Please, Lord, make this a Christian bear!".

Suddenly the bear stopped, fell down to his knees, put his big forepaws together and in a deep grumbly voice said "Thank you, Lord, for the meal you have put before me."

This reminds me of a story told to me years ago, you know when you get caught up in a crowd all running and you don't know why, well this man stepped out his front door onto the pavement when a crowd came running passed & he was swept along with them and as he was running he asked a chap alongside him "why are we all running" to which the man said "A Bengal tiger has escaped from the circus" The chap said " where is it" the other man says " we're not effin chasing it".

I'd say a "bear-faced" lie, or possibly photo-shop.

The definition of the word "grizzled" is a new streak of gray hair..

Wow! found this live bear cam: saw one catch a salmon within about ½ a minute.
