The grizzly bear smoked a calabash pipe because

he was fond of fire and by smoking the pipe he could watch it burn. The arson squad had long suspected the grizzly bear was responsible for a series of forest fires around

Whose black fur coat was the envy of the ladies. Even five years later, this folding story is a great oportunity to remember December 2012 wasn't the end of the world as forecast!

The starting date of this story is self evident - text to right. Let's flesh out the fold a bit. The enviable black coat in question belonged to a gorilla, not a man in a suit.

It was a black morning coat, and when the gorilla wore it, he looked terribly stylish. People often mistook him for a British gorilla, especially when he affected an accent. But

, being Canadian, he was too polite to correct them. He would often sit at home, whipping up his favorite meal of maple syrup drizzled-bananas. His wife, an actual British gorilla,

preferred praline or marmalade over her bananas and once while on holiday in Kenya, she had treacle drizzled over her bananas. Her foregorillas, had been from Kenya. Except for her

hindgorillas she had no other gorillas & little conflict or confusion over whose bananas & what banana toppings, until the day He arrived with a can of non-dairy whipped topping.

She stared at his can and said, "Non-dairy? You've got to be kidding me!" She stepped back and slipped on a banana. They both pealed with laughter at the absurdity of it all.
