You shouldn’t reach for your gun as soon as you wake up! Wait until you have some golden syrup in you!

Nah, you don’t want to be jumpy on the trigger. You want to feel mellow.

But then I’ll fall back asleep, miss work and civilization as we know it will end.
All because of syrup.
My goodness, you’re a real Syrup Pusher, aren’t you? I’m surprised Syrup Bear hasn’t taken you out….

No need to push syrup, it sells itself! Syrup Bear is so mellow he lets you rub his belly.

Yeah, not what I’m looking for. I do not want the world at large to make a connection between the name Bookstooge and the words belly rub…

You haven’t lived until you’ve had a good abdominal ultrasound. I always ask for extra jelly.

Ultrasounds aren’t just for pregnant people! Sometime you need your kidneys and stuff looked at. It will happen to you! And when it does just ask for extra jelly.

Yeah, they’re very nice. I have a lot of Chinese ones and the paper-cut ones are quite delicate. I’d never use them, but nice to look at!

I have a display case for most of them. I’ve framed a couple of bookmarks, but they were handmade by a friend.

While Syrup Bear is definitely smarter than the average bear, he doesn’t read much. He only has paws.
