[slight hijack] **tigergirl** just in case you havn’t seen my G’dope post - Pleasepleaseplease can I tag along with ted when he visit’s you? He can travel with me in the safety of my Commodore ::pause for a moments silence whilst I marvel at the glory that is the Holden Commodore:: it will be fun - and I can find out what a Poppet head is. Last time I heard it used was in Buffy when spike made some comment along the lines of “don’t worry poppet” to Dawn. Although why Michelle Trachtenberg’s (sp?) head is in Bendigo I dunno.

So **kuroashi** , are you in or not? Please say yes. Say Yes. Say Yes. (I’ll send a bottle of something to anyone who can recognise the song and band which I was referring to). ---

If he’s going to Oxford, UK, then he has to come to Cambridge! I’m sure I could show Mr Bear the sights of Cambridge, and all the pretty colleges 🙂 ---

I’m thinking he will enjoy being frisked at customs! Thanks Jodi! ---

For **Cecil the Bear** ’s stop in Washington, DC, I have planned the following stops: White House America’s Largest Erection (Washington Monument, duh!) Library of Congress Dupont Circle (dunno where specifically, but Dupont Circle) Watergate Hotel Is there anywhere else in the general DC area folks would like to see our beloved bear? ---

Since no doper has any intention of coming to Istanbul anytime soon, I guess I will volunteer to host CtB here. If you can fit Istanbul to the European tour schedule, I would really show CtB some unforgettable sights, and send him away to his next stop with some great memories!! ---

After Oxford and Cambridge I would be happy to take Cecil around London. ---

Since my OB wants to induce me, if no one minds if I shortstop Cecil, he can come to the hospital with us and have his picture taken with Baby Doors… Robin ---

Well, if I can remember to write the frimpin’ e-mail, **CtB** is more than welcome here in… uh… city-like… uh… Sacramento. That is, of course, if folks remember who I am. You wouldn’t forget me, would you? Hello? [sub]mommy?[/sub] ---

OK, where is **Cecil** now? On Friday the 24th of May, I heard that **Canadian Sue** had just mailed him to me so that he could be here for **Porkapalooza** on June 1. He didn’t arrive. I was supposed to mail him on to the **Mountaindope** folks for their get-together today. I haven’t sent him on because he still hasn’t arrived. Did he smart off at a customs officer and consequently is sitting cooling his paws in a dank cell somewhere? Did he get shipped somewhere else by accident? Did his shipping box meet with a tragic accident? I’m really starting to worry about the little guy. ---

I can’t believe I missed this the first time around! **Cecil the Bear** is _lost_??? Nah, he’s just uh, uh, unavoidably detained. Yeah, that’s it. We can’t have any rumors starting now, could we? [sub]Psssst. Call out the National Guard![/sub] **Jodi** , when Cece surfaces, I’ll be happy to host him in Northern Indiana. There ain’t much in the way of sightseeing opportunities but I’m sure we can show him a v-e-r-y good time! E-mail is on the way. ---

I don’t know where the little guy is. I’m following up with SUE – hope he hasn’t gone astray. ☹ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/host-the-cecil-the-bear-world-tour/107165.md?page=4)
