| the funny thing is, it all started with a comic in the first place. | |
 | |  |
|
 |
| | |
| picture it, 1983, mardi gras. we're on this long drive from boulder to new orleans, and to pass the time cindy made these doodles in her notebook, of a bear. | |
| | |
|
|
|
|
in those days, spam came in the mail. we used the bears name, gt bear, for the spam to keep it separate.
|

|
|
| | |
| a bear with a hammer actually. and the other character was stick-cindy | |
| | |
|
 |
| | |
| so later that year, when i found a teddy bear in the trash, it took on the personality of the cartoon bear, only more so. | |
| | |
|
|
|
|
so naturally when i got online in 1990, i used gtbear for my email and chat handle. the aardvark thing came later.
