Thanks, Paul. Actually, like you, Brickhouse resonates more for me than Harry Carey. By the bear do you mean the one at Lincoln Park Zoo? My parents used to take us down to the zoo for photos with the stuffed bear every summer. I still have 1 or 2 of those photos. Or perhaps you mean the Hamms bear. That's what you must mean, being a southsider and all :-). Cheers, Christine
