The Lineup

Hey, everybody! It’s me again. You might be wondering what I’ve been up to and why it’s been so long since you’ve heard from me. If not, you should be wondering that! I’m the bestest of the rest. Oh, wait, I shouldn’t say that. But S’mores and I have done a pretty amazing and wonderful job on our latest heist. It’s not as easy as you might think to plan a very complex heist and steal things from a highly secure set of casinos in Las Vegas. They made it look easy on that movie. But, rest assured- we got the job done. More on that later…

For now, I’d like to share some gratitude for all the friends who made it possible.

S’mores may think he was the mastermind behind this plan, and I’m willing to pretend that’s true when I’m with him. He did have some pretty terrific ideas and I wouldn’t have anyone else as my #2.

A special “shout-out” to Brownie Bears Adventures, Inc. We appreciated their help in training us how to climb, rappel, navigate with night-vision goggles, and fly helicopters. We give their tour company 4.75 stars.

The Pig would have been a crucial part of this endeavor. She was supposed to be part of our getaway plan and pick us up in her rocket ship. Unfortunately, it was having some technical difficulties and she was getting it ready for a long-distance trip to somewhere far away in our solar system. She refused to speed up the repair process or reschedule her mission in order to pick us up in Nevada. Boo!

I wouldn’t have included her in this “thank you” section, except that she was very helpful in finding us a place to stash the goods. Where would we be without her engineering know-how? Well, we’d be carrying around a whole lot of…. you know what, never mind.

Froggy 2 is good to have around if you need to get out of somewhere fast. Let’s say, just for example, you’re at the bottom of a very tall elevator shaft outside a vault filled with money. And let’s say you’re a bear with strong legs that aren’t really built for climbing. Who do you call? A friend with a tremendous vertical leap. Froggy 2 to the rescue! Thanks, friend.

We’ll keep this one short & sweet- eagle eye in the sky. Too bad we don’t speak “bird”. Our warning system would have worked better if we’d known what you were saying.

Oh, Sneaks. You couldn’t be better at sneaking around and getting into places you shouldn’t. Terrific tips and ideas for us. Not much help during the actual heist, since you were too busy enjoying the local night life while hopped up on a coffee-shop’s worth of caffeine. Better luck next time!

We’ll just say this about Rocky. If you need a door kicked it, titanium or no, he’s your guy. He’s also pretty handy on the way out keeping the Stuffie nabsters (who want to capture us cute little innocent friends doing not much wrong) at bay. Couldn’t have gotten out the door without you.

Who wouldn’t stop and talk with this little cutie and give them a hug? Exactly- no one could ignore that cute face. Distraction and deception? Check.

And, last, but not least- our bodyguard. If you’re going to do a dangerous mission, it always helps to have a T-rex on your side. NO one will mess with you when they see those teeth.
