    The anecdote started out drifting so badly I considered giving   
   up on it and summarizing it as ``something about a guy with a bear   
   costume''; I'm glad it came to a neat point, but it did need a better   
   narrative flow.

    For what it's worth, I used to have a pair of bear-foot   
   slippers and they were very nice for sleeping in. It may have been   
   related to being in upstate New York where the temperature drops   
   below freezing in mid-October and never gets back above.

    You may be right. It was certainly one of them.
