But what does Richard Ellis think about Salinger?
And where do the bears in Central Park go when it gets warm outside?
We could move them south, give them sunglasses, and call them Solar Bears maybe.
They'll be safe in front of my hearth, I promise.
Ellis: It's so hard for me to understand whose interest is being served by denying global warming. You don't win anything by saying this isn't happening.
Whatyoutalkin'boutEllis?
You've combined an adorable bear picture with the horror of inevitable extinction. I think you've now hit a Balk homerun!
