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.

My Christmas Edition Journal
We are having such a great time shopping for Christmas this year that for once I'm enjoying it and looking forward to the big day itself.
but what I am looking forward to is seeing Candy's face when she opens her prezzies, I hope she loves them all.
We have gone bonkers this year in prezzie buying, but nothing expensive, just little gifts that we will love.
What is rather good is the weather, SNOW! and lots of it.
and as usual Candy is enjoying playing in the snow, throwing snowballs at me, etc
If you are wondering why I have not been updating my blog alot recently
or appearing on Facebook and Twitter is that I have no internet connection anymore,
where we live in Stokesley is lovely but it is surrounded by huge mountains (Candy calls them hills, but I think they are bigger)
and we can not get any internet signal for Dave our laptop. plus we also have trouble at times getting a signal on our mobile phones,
so at the moment I'm reduced to using the computers at the library which I don't use alot as
I don't leave the flat that much due to my bad back and bandaged legs that hampers my mobility at times.
I had a very chavy moment the other day,
I was watching the Jeremy Kyle Show on ITV1, which is full of chavs and
it is the British equivelent to the Jerry Springer show but slightly less violent.
anyway I did a double take when I recognised one of the "victims",
Lisa who used to work for me at Blockbuster video store,
it was one of those usual "I don't know if you are the father to my baby" storyline.
It was quite funny and sad really that people have to expose themselves to the public with their own private problems,
but that is today's society, reality shows, celebrity mags, CCTV, 5-min fame and chat shows.
Now you all know that I am head over heels in love with my wife, Candy.
she is my light and my sunshine, my soulmate and my amazing sweetheart.
but goddamn it, we are so connected spiritualy that when my dear wife has her monthly moon time,
I also suffer from sympathy pains.
I really do feel for you women, how the heck do you cope?
It's bad enough with everything else going on with me medically, but to suffer from this as well.
HaHa...life is sure funny. I love you darling.
I have noticed something else health wise about me now,
I suffer really badly from travel sickness every time I go on the bus.
and now I have to take napkins and a sick bag every time I travel.
Candy did buy me some travel pills, which are working to a small degree.
I think the problem is that we live in the middle of nowhere with lots of country roads
and it takes an hour to travel to either Northallerton or to Middlesbrough.
I did have some luck with lost members of my family,
I made contact with three of my cousins - Angela, Julie, and Karen.
they are the daughters of my Aunt Shelia and Uncle Tom,
who live in Withernsea where my late mum was born.
I also found some evidence about my late father's past including his first wife,
and various assignments on American aircraft carriers when he was in the RAF.
I got to admit, I don't know what to make of the stuff I found,
and there is no one to talk to about it who knew my dad.
I've started to get back into collecting my comic books again after having a four month break to use the money for other matters.
and as for my comic book, I have only written one page of script so far, and lots of notes and ideas,
but I have not had the brain power to write anything for a while,
maybe once I have gotten healthy, then I can start writing again.
but I am keeping secret on what the title will be and what it is about until closer to the time.
I've included a couple of pictures,
two are from Candy's favourite website - LOLCATS,
a movie poster for the upcoming Marvel superhero movie Ironman 2,
a dozy picture of me with my pirate beard, and Remy the Moose...Nuff 'Said.
Anyway this is my Christmas Eve post and I hope everyone has an Amazing Christmas and a Wonderful New Year.
See you all in 2010!
Love to you all and Good Night...Where ever you are...

Long Journeys
It has been yet another long time since I last updated my blog and part of me misses doing this on a regular basis but another part of me wonders do I need to do this anymore as I have Facebook now to update my daily rants and stuff?
I admit I've not been online for a couple of months as for some strange reason I have lost all internet connection and signal for my laptop, and I am trying to sort it out.
It has been a busy few months so here goes folks...
Well we finally got back to our old home to pack what stuff we could get in the short space of time that we had which was only 5 hours,
we were helped by two removal men, Pete and Steve and a lad named James who worked for the company that deals with the keys to the house.
James was really wonderful and very helpful, he loved Candy's artwork and my collection of comics and swords.
Candy and I arrived at our home at 9.30am to find all our hedges and trees in the front garden had been cut down by a very nasty neighbour, next door who we found out later had dumped loads of rubbish in our back garden and broken into our shed and took stuff, We could not gain access to our garden, which upset Candy as she wanted to collect some tools from the shed that used to belong to her grandfather, but now they might have been nicked.
When we got into the house, it was trashed inside, whom ever put up the metal plates on the doors and windows had also gone through our personal stuff and thrown stuff around, broke stuff and generally left a mess which took us longer to find stuff to pack up, they even went through our clothes draw and thrown Candy's clothes on the floor.
we were fucking disgusted and we have no idea what if any of our stuff had been stolen.
anyway being angry was not getting us anywhere, so we started to pack what we could, I went upstairs to our bedroom to start packing up our clothes and anything else that we needed, while everyone else was clearing out the living room, luckly we already had alot of stuff packed up before we were evicted months ago.
after they cleared that room, they started on the dining room, and the other two bedrooms, we managed to save Candy's childhood rocking horse but not all of her stuff including her toybox, which I feel for her as I lost most of my toys when I moved house.
There was only one minor incident of my legs buckling underneath me and I had trouble getting back up and standing/walking, but apart from that I was alright and I did not tell Candy what had happand until we got home, which she was rightfully worried about, she checked my bandages on my legs and if my leg sores had broken but they were alright.
anyway to cut the story short, we got what we could achieve in the short hours that we had and we now have most of our stuff in our flat whilst everything else is in storage as the removal men only worked up to a certain time (originally they did not tell us this) so we should get everything else next week now.
also before I forget, a big thank you to Eddie the Taxi Driver who drove us from Northallerton to Easingwold and then Easingwold to Stokesley, it cost me £80 in taxi fare but it was worth it and we would have been lost without him, cheers mate.
I do feel for Candy as we talked about what we have lost but also what we managed to get back from the house, and it was harder for her as she had lived in that house with her (now) late father for 16 years and there's a bucket load of memories in the place, I only lived there for just under four years, so I'm alright, but her dad and her cat are buried in Easingwold and we don't know when we will get back there to visit them. Candy has been really brave over this but you still can see the sadness over the loss in her face.
Anyway this should be a new start for us in Stokesley, we might stay here for a year or we might stay for longer, who knows.
but we got each other, and that is the important thing in our lives.
anyway on to other things -
Instead of writing out a full and long blog entry for the last few months, I thought I would do a highlight section instead.
(The events below are not in any order of date or time)
Candy bought a couple of toys from the Mind charity shop the other week, and they are wonderful -
The Bat Mobile from the 1960's TV series of BATMAN -
The Black Beauty from the 1960's TV series of The GREEN HORNET -
K-9 from the TV series of DOCTOR WHO -
Candy also treated me to the original boxset of Dungeons & Dragons which made me really happy -
Several weeks ago, Candy and I were unfortunate to be among the many thousands of people in this country to contract the H1N1 virus otherwise known as the Swine Flu virus. we were lucky as we only got mild symptoms and we recovered after a week of rest, but it was a week of being in pain that we don't want to go through again.
Here's a picture I got from a friend who emailed me - Poor Piglet is not very well
I turned 34 years old on May the Third, and I had a pretty good time as my birthday celebrations also fell on the international Free ComicBook Day, for which we travelled up to Middlesbough for the day.
It was the very first time we visted the town and it took us a while to locate the FPI comicshop which when we got there we were so bloody disappointed as they deciced not to particapate in the FCBD initiative and they were really rude to both Candy and I for no reason except they did not like the look of us.
so I missed out on some free comics that I wanted, so I was pretty peeved off.
but Candy suggested that I should get in touch with another shop, which I did.
So I emailed GOSH comics in London, and they were so wonderful to us and sent out a selection of comics that I was after for free delivery.
We were so impressed by the company that if anyone from that shop is reading this, a big thank you for you.
I also got loads of birthday messages from my friends on Facebook and some cards as well, Cheers guys ;-)
We are still watching Big Brother 10 and we are really enjoying it which has surprised us, my favourites have been Freddie, Siavash, and Marcus.
Candy and I were rooting for Marcus to win as we think he is the coolest one in the house, but he got kicked out last week, so my bet is Siavash or Sophie.
I know it's very late in making this comment but both Psychoville and Torchwood: Children of the Earth were both fantastic viewing,
and at the moment I'm enjoying watching Being Human on BBC 1.
Candy had also bought over the weeks (spending my money here!) an original NES computer game system with added games for a tenner, a whole load of 70's superhero annuals in faily good condition, a huge amount of Beano and Dandy comics/annuals dating back from the 1980's, and a large number of occult/witchcraft books from which she would like to learn the craft from me.
Candy is very good with Crystals and Dowsing Rods and she has dipped her fingers into spellcasting which she is getting better with my help of course.
Don't forget folks I used to be known as Witchboy for several years and I have practiced magick from a very early young age.
As for my health, it's getting better slowly.
my legs are looking better but with huge scabs covering the sores, so my skin is getting healed underneath all of the scabs, but at the moment they will not win any beauty prize.
I have to wear bandages all the time and I regular see the Lymphoedema clinic for treatment.
at least my legs are not going to be amputed now which was once said back in Feb.
but my back is still killing me and the painkillers are still not working so I'm having to be assessed for futher treatment, bloody hell just give me Morphine, than I be happy!
Candy made me an amazing video on Dave the Laptop of a love message from her to me, and it bought a tear to my eyes, it was such a wonderful thing, and I am so bloody lucky to be married to her, to be with her and she really is the best.
I Love You Candy Darling.

I turned 34 years old on May the Third, and I had a pretty good time as my birthday celebrations also fell on the international Free ComicBook Day, for which we travelled up to Middlesbough for the day.
It was the very first time we visted the town and it took us a while to locate the FPI comicshop which when we got there we were so bloody disappointed as they deciced not to particapate in the FCBD initiative and they were really rude to both Candy and I for no reason except they did not like the look of us.
so I missed out on some free comics that I wanted, so I was pretty peeved off.
but Candy suggested that I should get in touch with another shop, which I did.
So I emailed GOSH comics in London, and they were so wonderful to us and sent out a selection of comics that I was after for free delivery.
We were so impressed by the company that if anyone from that shop is reading this, a big thank you for you.
I also got loads of birthday messages from my friends on Facebook and some cards as well, Cheers guys ;-)
We are still watching Big Brother 10 and we are really enjoying it which has surprised us, my favourites have been Freddie, Siavash, and Marcus.
Candy and I were rooting for Marcus to win as we think he is the coolest one in the house, but he got kicked out last week, so my bet is Siavash or Sophie.
I know it's very late in making this comment but both Psychoville and Torchwood: Children of the Earth were both fantastic viewing,
and at the moment I'm enjoying watching Being Human on BBC 1.
Candy had also bought over the weeks (spending my money here!) an original NES computer game system with added games for a tenner, a whole load of 70's superhero annuals in faily good condition, a huge amount of Beano and Dandy comics/annuals dating back from the 1980's, and a large number of occult/witchcraft books from which she would like to learn the craft from me.
Candy is very good with Crystals and Dowsing Rods and she has dipped her fingers into spellcasting which she is getting better with my help of course.
Don't forget folks I used to be known as Witchboy for several years and I have practiced magick from a very early young age.
As for my health, it's getting better slowly.
my legs are looking better but with huge scabs covering the sores, so my skin is getting healed underneath all of the scabs, but at the moment they will not win any beauty prize.
I have to wear bandages all the time and I regular see the Lymphoedema clinic for treatment.
at least my legs are not going to be amputed now which was once said back in Feb.
but my back is still killing me and the painkillers are still not working so I'm having to be assessed for futher treatment, bloody hell just give me Morphine, than I be happy!
Candy made me an amazing video on Dave the Laptop of a love message from her to me, and it bought a tear to my eyes, it was such a wonderful thing, and I am so bloody lucky to be married to her, to be with her and she really is the best.
I Love You Candy Darling.

Old People
Now don't get me wrong, this does not mean every old person out there, but boy are they a pain in the back side, especially at Bus queues, where they don't queue for a bus, but when one turns up, they barge right in front of you and all cram on to the bus and get the "good" seats and if you Dare say anything to them , they cry out the OAP card and start muttering something about the war and their generation. I have even noticed them walking so slowly down the street or in a shop where they get in your way and hit you with their walking sticks or barging into you with their wheel chairs and then they see the bus and they walk so fast, sometimes even run towards the bus that they would give The Flash a race for his life.
It really does piss me off at times, especially as I can't walk that fast any more. Damn I would make a good Old Person lol

Happy Birthday
Today is my beautiful wife's birthday.
Darling I love you so very much, more now than the day I met you.
You are and always will be my sweet soulmate, my everything and my forever love.
What more can I ask for in my life than someone who makes me laugh, giggle and wiggle like a schoolgirl as I am being tickled, who cooks the most splendid meals every day, who always makes me feel better after I have hurt myself, who listens to every word I say and laughs at all my silly songs and joins in as well. Candy you have made this Papa Moose a very happy Moose.
I LOVE YOU MY SWEET DARLING CANDY.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY !
XOXOXOXOX

Dream Home
ok I have not updated in such a long time, due to the reasons of being made homeless and living in a grotty B&B, I will get round to updating this blog on the whats and whynots of that later, but what I'm letting you all know is where we will be moving to.
now most of my friends on FaceBook already know this but Candy and I will be moving to Stokesley. it's near the Teeside border and we are not that far from Middlesbrough.
we will be moving into a 3-bedroom flat with two bathrooms, a kitchen/diner, living room, two large landing areas, and another room where we can have our studio/study.
it has beautiful views towards the moors and the hills, down the back of our building is a cobbled path towards a stream full of ducks, which I know Candy will love to feed and take photos of and she will get some great pictures drawn.
but apart from that, we will be above an Indian restraunt/take-away. my gawd it's gonna be amazing and Candy is so happy about it, she deserves to be happy after everything she has been through the last several years and I hope as her husband I will be able to make her happy every day.
