Musings over Whisky
I’m sitting here drinking a glass of whisky and I have started watching the midnight mass on BBC 1, I’ve not done this in a very long time, There was a time when I used to go to church and believe in God, but then again my parents wanted me to be trained as a priest. I have my own views on faith and the universe now, but it still gives me a warm feeling listening to the carols being sung. and I still remember all my prayers. It is a very funny old world.
Out in the either of this world and the universe, my thoughts during this time are with the lost and the homeless, a couple of years ago, Candy and I were homeless and very poor, but we got through it and it has made us stronger.
I hope all… the people who are living rough, without a home or shelter are safe.
My thoughts also go out to old friends that I never see again, and lost family.
wherever you are Debbie, I am thinking about you and wish that you are alright, and I hope one day you will find a way to contact me again.
as for lost family, Mum and Dad, I will always love you and one day we will be together again.
as for my sister, Melanie. I hope you are content in your life and are happy with what you have got.

Questions about Were-Bears
This was an email that I sent to a gentleman who is an expert on all things regarding were-bears.
I emailed him as I was after some research info for a storyline
I was working on and he kindly replied back to me.
I thought I would post the email and the reply as I found it to be very interesting.
Hiya,
I hope you don't mind me asking this question of you,
but why does the Were-Bear link itself to Gays?
I'm only asking as I'm a budding Comic book writer and I'm designing a were-bear character for my book and I googled the name, and I came upon your site - Papa Were Bear Stories.
My character is going to be from a mythical race of bear like humanoids that I have named The Wood Walkers, and I've not thought about his sexual preference.
I hope you can help me with my question,
All the best.
Jason Louis.
Hmmm...
Good question Jason!
There really isn't an answer... I suppose.
I suppose there could be straight or bi were bears but in my mind, in the universe I've made, offspring of a straight or bi were bear and an ordinary human female would be carriers of the genes that make were bears possible, but not be were bears themselves. The female offspring would be carriers and the male offspring would be potential were bears. Of course a were bear mating with a female carrier are going to have male children that, upon reaching puberty, begin to transform.
The male child of a female carrier and an ordinary human male could have a child whose genes are activated by another were bear male. They become 'expressed' because of his contact with other transformed were bears and then the 'potential' were bear becomes a 'transformed' were bear.
Perhaps, you could have hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of 'potential' were bears out there who don't transform because they've never encountered a transformed male to activate their genes.
It would be interesting to think that the beefy hairy gay men that form 'Bear' groups are some of those 'inactivated' were bears and they unconsciously are seeking out a male to activate their genes, thus they're attracted to big hairy gruff men. :D)
This isn't exactly the way it is in my universe because I don't want to get too technical with it. The were bears themselves don't know. It's a mystery I'd like to leave unwritten to let the reader speculate and think of 'why' on their own.
After all, weren't you just a tad disappointed when Lucas came up with that Midicholrian bullshit he pulled out of his ass to explain why some are more in tune with The Force than others? I liked it better when it was 'unknown'. It was mystical and that's sorta the way I want my were bears to be. If you explain it, it takes a LOT of the wonder out of it.
I suppose the reason my Were bears are gay or bi is that the thought of making love with an anthropomorphic bear kinda turns me on. I'm sure there are those out there that get turned on by werewolves and other 'shifters'. Certainly people are sexually attracted to vampires, witness the hoards of 'Sparkly Vampire' fans. :D)
For me, it's just something about the idea of being gently held in the arms of a strong bearish male and being made to feel safe by him. Feeling all that power clothed in soft fur and padded with a layer of bear fat.
I'm writing for me and you should write for you, because if it doesn't make you happy, it's not worth making. Satisfy yourself, others who are of like mind will follow and enjoy your work.
So, when you write your stories, write them as you see fit. Create you own universe with your own ideas of how were bears or ursans or ursanoids should be. Give them the full range of sexuality, straight, bi and gay if that is what you want. Place stigmas about sexuality or don't. After all, at various times and places on this world being a member of the minority sexuality wasn't looked down on. It's rare, but it has happened. Humans tend to discriminate against that which is not the majority. We notice and are mostly afraid of that which is different (as a species not as individuals, mind you). It's sad, but true.
Good luck and I hope to see your comic for sale because even if the Bear men aren't having hot male to male bear sex, I'm still going to enjoy the story if it's a good one.
Hugs!
Papa

My Views on the War
Warning – This is my view on the subject and I don’t apologise if it upsets anyone.
300+ British soldiers dead, fighting in a distant country away from family and friends, fighting in a war that really should not be fought and we have no place to be fighting in.
Fighting for a Queen who does not know your name or give’s a damn and a Government who are only interested in profit and death.
Fighting the war against terrorists?
It can and never will be won! our soldiers are not doing any good and they are being picked off like flies,
300 dead but how many are injured?
How many more 18yr olds need to lose their legs, arms, etc? for a war that we can never ever win.
None of these kids are brave and heroic, what is heroic in losing a limb on your first tour of duty?
Silly brainwashed frightened children who do not understand what they are getting into
and they are not even being told the real reason’s behind this war against terror.
