"Alas, Poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio: a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy: he hath borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how abhorred in my imagination it is! My gorge rims at it. Here hung those lips that I have kissed I know not how oft. Where be your gibes now? Your gambols? Your songs? Your flashes of merriment, that were wont to set the table on a roar? Not one now, to mock your own grinning? Quite chap-fallen?

The Prodigal mouse said to her father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living. And not many days after the young mouse gathered all together, and took her journey into a far country, and there wasted her substance with tweeting, twittering and riotous living. And when she had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and she began to be in want. And she went and joined herself to a citizen of that country; and he sent her into his fields to feed swine. And she would fain have filled her belly with the husks that the swine did eat, except she didn't know what "fain" meant: and no man gave unto her. And when she came to herself, she said, "How many hired servants of my father's are happily painting mermaids and hamsters and have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger and my attention span is a shambles!"

When you're a Bear,
You're a Bear all the way
From your first breath of air
To your last dyin' day.
When you're a Bear,
If you spit in the woods,
You got brothers around,
They'll deliver the goods.

Anthropomorphic Bear decided it was time to follow his dream. He left behind his heartbroken mother and sweetheart sow and headed for the bright lights of Bakersfield. It's not easy to hitch a ride when you're a bear carrying a double bass, but his persistence paid off. Anthropomorphic bear is now playing bass in a jazz combo Thursday through Sunday nights at the Holiday Inn.

Buccaneer Bear is careful to explain, to anyone who will listen, that the term "buccaneer" derives from the Arawak word "buccan," a wooden frame used for smoking meat. Hence, "Boucanier," was the French word for "user of a boucan."
The name was used for French hunters and woodsmen in the Spanish West Indies, who became a lawless and piratical set after being driven from their trade by Spanish authorities in the late1600s.
British colonists anglicised the word "boucanier" to "buccaneer."
The name was universally adopted in 1684 when the first English translation of Alexandre Exquemelin's book The Buccaneers of America was published.
Interestingly enough, the popular term "barbeque" comes from the Haitian word "barbacoa," also used to describe the wooden smoking frame...
By the time Buccaneer Bear is done relating the lengthy etymology his poor little paws are very tired from making "air quotes."
