Hi, evrybudy! This is old bear ritin 2 U agin and in the pitcher at the top I'm bein held by a nu frend named Miss Jeanne.

How I met Miss Jeanne wus cus I went on a mistry trip with my man and sum other peoples to Arlingtun in Texus. The Mystry thing we went to C wus in a reel nyce theater at the big university in Arlington and it wus Miss Jeanne Robinson and Mr. Carl Hurley who told funny stories and jokes 4 abowt 2 hours. Mr. Carl and Miss Jeanne are sumpn called humorists which is a fancy wurd for a joke teller.

They both told a lot of stories abowt things that reely culd happen to peoples. For sample Mr. Carl told about goin to buy a quart of ice cream and the store person sed " we don't sell it in quarts; we only have pints" sew Mr. Carl sed "okay, give me 2 pints of ice cream." Then the store person asked "du U want that in one container

Mr. Carl sed that he never had to luk very hard to find sumpn funny cus humor is most everywhere he goes.

My man sez that sure is rite cus he has had sum purty funny things happen to him, 2. One time, he sed, he went into a restaurant and wanted a corned beef sandwich but the waiter person said they didn't have jist corned beef sandwich, they only had Rubins that had corned beef and sowerkraut. My man sed can't U jist give me a Rubin without any sowerkraut.. They sed No cus a Rubin cums with sowerkraut. He finally sed ok bring me a Rubin and wen they did he scraped all the sowerkraut off of it.

Mr. Carl used to be a skool teecher for little childrun and then he wus a kollege teecher sew he knew lots of funny things about skool daze 2.

I'm goin on another trip in June but it wont be a mistry trip cus we know wear we are goin. The trip is being called A Day With Rose-Mary Rumbley cus she is goin to be our tour guide on this trip and will show us things and tell us stories abowt 3 little towns not very far from Dallas. Miss Rose-Mary is a reel gud guide person cus she has been most everywhere and knows a hole lot about a lot of things. She's been a skool teecher and has rit a hole bunch of books My man sez that Miss Rose-Mary is the best racoontoor he's ever heard. She kan tel reel gud stories, too.

In Septembur we R goin 2 go on another trip. This will be 2 Little Rock in Arkansas to see sum interestin things there like where Mr. President Clinton was born and his Presidential Library. I've been to Little Rock a hole lot of times cept it wus always at the airport when me and my man were flyin to visit my gramma in Ilinoyze. I never did get to C the town.

My man sez that if he can save up enuf money between now and Christmas tyme we will be goin to Nashville in Tennessee for sumpn called A Country Christmus He sez even if he duz save enuf money we might not go cus if there aren't enuf people who want to du the same thing then nobudy will get 2 go. I wish I had fingers sew I culd cross them for gud luck. I've never been to Nashville and it has been a long tyme since I've gone anywhere in airplayne.

But I guess I am a pretty lucky bear to be able to go even to Arlington in texus to see Miss Jeanne and Mr Carl. Oh, I forgot to tel u that wen Miss Jeanne wus holding me she saw all the pins on my vest and asked wat they were. Wen my man told her that they were frum things I had dun she sed, Oh, I wish I had a pin to give you. That sure wus nyce of her to say that.
