Bears, Bears, Bears

If anyone can make bears a trend in mainstream America, it'll be John Waters; according to Remy at our "A Dirty Shame" weblog, Waters started by explaining to his (presumably heterosexual and non-bear) agent what they're all about: "'He (the agent) said, "What is this bear thing? Is there such a thing?" I said, "You're right by your computer. Type in the word 'bear.'" I heard ckk-ckk-ckk, and then I heard him go, 'Oh my god.'" Or, as a bear might put it, Woof! (No, we don't understand why they bark either.)
