Jeremy Bear Top Ten
Good ol’ Jeremy Bear - he hasn’t blogged in quite some time. Heck, even “Elizabeth” the stand-in over at jeremybear.com/blogger who makes me want to poke my eyes out with a dull pencil hasn’t written anything in quite a while. Yeah I know there was quite a hiatus here on Green Like… but I figured if I’m gonna get back into the swing of it maybe he can too.
Here is my list of things Jeremy might be doing instead of blogging
10. Keeping it ‘real’
9. Developing a non-nutritive, semi-permiable, non-osmotic cereal varnish and crunch enhancer
8. Wishing everybody would forget about that stupid children’s show so he could be #1 Jeremy Bear site on the Internet again. **Edit - since I first wrote this apparently, the site has grown in popularity with the Google - this is a good sign - strike while the iron is hot dude! **
7. Animating next year’s Christmas animation
6. Trying like heck to not be an Obamaniac
5. Keeping a lid on it (before somebody starts a fight)
4. Penning an autobiography entitled “Calvin: The Sketch that Made Me the Man I am Today”
3. Working on an educational comic book titled “Gilbert & Calliope address the myth of Global Warming” a comic fully sponsored by BP (Make life a little better).
2. Whittling toothpicks
1. Keeping us all waiting
I thought I’d send you to a few of my favorite Jeremy Bear posts - go on, clickety click.
Jeremy & Carey’s digital Christmas Greetings - 2003 is my favorite as it’s the most interactive.
Traffic Pwned! - Jeremy recounts the story of his day with ‘Uncle Aaron’ at a mandatory traffic school
Jeremy on the Late Show with Jay Leno - yes, on national television. This clip needs to be on YouTube.
The JeremyBear.com Mailbox - Illustrating the Internet’s addiction to all that is JeremyBear.com
Mt. Paran Christian School - the comic that introduced JeremyBear.com to legal action!
I’d link you to a few more but Jeremy has the worst archive system that blogger offers, making it absolutely painful to try and find things - all that said - check out the links. Hopefully Jeremy will send up a flare and let us who don’t see or hear from him regularly know that he is indeed still alive - and hopefully at some point, still blogging. The world’s got a fever, and the only prescription - is more Jeremy (or more cowbell).
Is there egg on my face or what for not noticing this blessed post until recently? Mea maxima culpa, homes, I’m surprised anyone remembers that ol’ blogga mine.
10. Hellz yizzeah, I’m keepin’ it real. I’m keepin’ it real all up in this… this, uh. You know, this piece.
9. My people are close to cracking it, and when they do, hoo boy. That’s my baby momma’s meal ticket right there.
8. Someday I will tell the story to the whole internets about how Jeremy the claymation Bear people attempted to buy my domain from me, but ended up sending me remastered DVDs of the complete series instead because they couldn’t accept that I wasn’t a slobbering fan of the show, it really just happens to be my name. Whoops, I guess that’s the whole story. There, internets.
7. You know, my wife keeps coming up with much funnier ideas and material for Christmas cards than I’m able to think of myself, but I’m too filled with spite and jealousy to execute them. She thinks she’s hot snot, but you know what? She’s so not.
6. Not voting for Obama in November if you happen to live in California is like boycotting KFC in Barberton.
5. What’s that you say? Oh man no way.
4. Sure, go ahead and laugh, but my comics make dreams come true. My magnum opus is nearly done: “Getting Paid to Eat Bread Pudding”
3. Calliope’s with Al, but Gilbert’s on the fence. I think it might be puzzled by the fact that, throughout the whole documentary, Gore never once gave any hard numbers about HOW MANY DEGREES THE ACTUAL TEMPERATURE HAS INCREASED ON AVERAGE OVER THE COURSE OF THE LAST 100 YEARS. AM I TALKING TO MYSELF OVER HERE???
2. Artistry demands time and attention.

Listen, thanks for the walk down memory lane with those links. One or two of them I’d nearly forgotten.
It’s funny, lately I’ve been getting the itch again, not that anyone’s interested any more. But thanks for the encouragement, buddy. I need to check in on you more often.
Wink!
