4. I would stop until the bear left.
If that is a grizzly, then it is assuming a position of threat.

8. Have the kid that will not sit down and shut up take all the lunches out to the
bear.

That's what I would do.

22. I had that happen last summer, except. . .
It was a black bear, not a griz

I wasn't in a school bus, it was my Avy

The bear was about half a mile down the road

He immediately effed off into the woods

There was no picture taken

Other than those, it was exactly the same situation. Man, was I scared!!!11!1!

23. Uh... go around it. Quickly.
Edited on Sun Jan-21-07 07:14 PM by ChoralScholar
He is rather big - probably 1,000 pounds or more. But I'm in a school bus. Not going to be much of a threat.

As for the kid hanging out the window... we have this thing called natural selection...

Children without heads will not procreate more generations of stupid-ass window hanging chidren.

26. This reminds me of when...
I walked 8 miles uphill (both ways) to get to school, and each day I killed a grizzly bear with my looseleaf notebook! :rofl:

Bill Cosby said something like that.
