The question is, did Goldilocks stab the Mama bear, the Papa bear, or the Baby bear?

Apparently her knife was just right.

well not a pocket knife but you know how KaBar knives were named.

"Our name dates back to the early 1900's from a fur trapper testimonial. He wrote that while trapping, his gun jammed leaving him with only his knife to kill a wounded bear that was attacking him. He thanked us for making the quality knife that helped him to kill a bear, but all that was legible was "K a bar". Honored by the testimonial, the company adopted the phrase KA-BAR as their trademark."

Chances are bear-spray would have worked just as well or better.

We don't need no bear bells, pepper spray or bahdges, we gots Amy.

And for my choice of knife, a folding bayonet at the end of a 12 gauge with the optional grenade launcher/flame thrower combo. I don't even like snakes.


Are they raising men or mice in the America's these days? She sounds like the sort of woman that any self respecting Man should go Wiving for.
