I might not answer very personal things, but I’ll give you my shoe size. Or ask me things I don’t know about the universe, or ask me for an opinion. I need to answer 22 posts, or actually 21 now.

Hey you have 1980 total posts and that’s when I graduated High School! How Cosmic!  
So… where’s the name sunbear come from? I remember from your posts that you have kids, so I’m assuming that it isn’t the ‘bear’ that seems to be a euphemism for ‘gay’.

What is the nature of God, and why can’t all the people in Great Debates agree on it so we can move on to International Monetary Policy or Best Scotch or something like that?

Not 11 kids, shoe size.

Some coworkers/students went to a zoo in California in 1981 or so. They didn’t ask me to come along. I wore an odd size discarded black leather jacket in lab. When they came back they said I looked like the sunbear they had seen. I was sunbear for a year or two as a result. When I joined here, there were a lot of critters, so I took it again. Now it’s too late to change.

Belle or Arial were my choices… I didn’t mean for you to choose between those two. Heck in this thread, you get to ‘doink’ any cartoon character you want… that’s the kind of guy I am!
