I wish I could have thought of that idea first and I also wish I was a rapper. I also wish I was a baller and a bit taller. If you’re a rapper that enters into this contest, I would love to hear your verse, I’ll even post them up. You can also buy my “On My Grizzly Shirt” from my online store at cafepress.com . Happy April Fools to everyone.

Tell him to call that number! I wish I knew who was behind this, I’m sure we’re going to hear some great verses.

It was really hard to get through, actually. After a few hours trying, finally got a pick up on someone’s old analog answering machine (btw, “hi this is jackie and melissa! leave a message!” = probably, april fools on me). But I spoke my words:

I’m checking the facts and I’m making the call
Cuz I long for a pastry and hear y’all hawk bear claws
I saw your advert and thought “what fun” of the sport
I got one verse to alert you of my thirst for the bear shirt
And pants combination.
So here’s my application:
Let me begin with my opening statements

To be fair the bear is mine
My rhymes are fine enough to shine
Past other bear-related lines
They are divine in their design
I climb like Ursa’s shine
People, follow the signs
Point you north every time
Set you straight on the dime

This suit and I are family,
Resemblance is molecular
Fur covering is regular
And to my life she’s integral
I’ll wear her on holidays although I am secular
I’ll love her, and groom her, and stick out my neck for her
I hope this plea is potent, I’d hate be ineffectual
I know you’ll hear me out, no doubt, you sound like intellectuals

At 6 foot 5, I’ll fit the description
So let me go ahead and make a prediction
Because my words are potent and they ring with conviction
You’ll hand me the bear suit, we’ll be one by week’s end.

Awesome! I’m sure if it took you long to get through you weren’t the the only one rapping about the bear suit on a strangers answering machine.

When I last checked, which was around 11:25pm Eastern time, the post had been taken down…so bear suit people, if you’re reading this…please let us hear these bear raps. gracias.
