Luuk is now bound for Jean in Alabama, having just had too much sex, alcohol, and cigarettes with Don.
Luuk has turned out to be one popular bear (and I wish I could have his frequent flier miles!) Some info: he is a bear I bought in Belgium and travelled around with. He is now making his way amongst the blog readers, who take pics of him and post them on their sites (or mine, if they do not blog). You can use the search tool to the right on my sidebar and check on what he looks like and where he's been. My goal is to link a seperate Luuk page to my site, but right now my current pc sucks a clown's ass, so that will have to wait.
Let's work it thus: I have a list here, and we will have this be the "shipping to" list. If the timing is bad or whatever, we can move names around. But otherwise, this is the order in which the little man sees the world. If he sees a town more than once, that's totally OK! It's about perspective-what is it that makes your town great for you?
That, and the bear is just so damn cute that of course people want to host him...
And I slept with him, so I can vouch for his coolness.
OK, so here's the list as I have it. And if you want to add your name, simply comment here and I will just tack you to the list.
Jean in Alabama
Simon (you should get him around New Year's-what a party!)
James
Joey

Carlene in New Orleans - he needs debauching. Definitely.
Guinness in Sacramento- I trust you, Guinness, to get my guy drunk.
Suz in Kansas City-maybe a Chiefs Game? You decide!
Melodrama in Calcutta-damn this bear gets to visit India and I don't!

Posted by Everydaystranger at December 11, 2003 08:00 AM | TrackBackI'm from KC too, but I'm going on a weekend road trip to go skiing in Colorado in February. I'd love to take Luuk along! I'm also going on another weekend trip to Las Vegas in March. :)
Posted by: Almost Lucid (Brad) at December 12, 2003 09:28 PMYou guys are all on the updated list now!
Simon, I want you to wow the hell out of that bear.
Posted by: Helen at December 12, 2003 09:20 AMI'm eager to get Luuk ASAP as I'm heading off for two weeks holidays starting next Friday. Otherwise he'll miss New Years in Hong Kong but he'll get one hell of a Chinese New Year.
Posted by: Simon at December 12, 2003 05:28 AMMaybe Lukk would like to visit Idaho some time this spring?
Posted by: Tami at December 12, 2003 03:12 AMwell, if he ever completes his rigourous touring schedule in the us and decides to see the world, he can stop over in sydney for a while with me.
Posted by: stu at December 11, 2003 10:24 PMWhooo hooooo! Luuk arrived today. He'd decided to travel by ground from Virginia to here in Alabama, so he's a bit travel weary. We're going to stay in tonight and veg out with a movie or two -- I'll let him snuggle with my kitty-cat, but ain't gonna be none of that butt buddy stuff what was going on at Don's, I'll tell you what!!!
I'm thinking Lukk would like to stay 'til Christmas, so he can spend it with my HUGE family; then I'll send him on his way the day after so he can get to Hong Kong for New Year's Eve!
Posted by: jean at December 11, 2003 09:52 PMI would love to take Luuk on a hike in Banner Elk, North Carolina.
Posted by: Marie at December 11, 2003 09:25 PMIf Luuk would like to visit London, I'd be happy to show him around.
Posted by: Gareth at December 11, 2003 04:36 PMOh yeah, that's Williamsburg, Virginia.
Posted by: J. Fielek at December 11, 2003 02:58 PMHey -- Send Luuk my way and I'll show him Wiliamsburg, Jamestown, and all the places where America really started.
Plus, he'll get to take a motorcycle ride.
