Bear (Oh, Not Again!) "It's not pining, it's passed on! This bear is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! This is a late bear! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed it to the perch, it would be pushing up the daisies! It's rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is an ex-bear!"
