Best man, I mean bear

Don’t try this at home, folks.

Naturist Casey Anderson has drawn some attention because of his best friend, an 800-pound grizzly bear named Brutus. Anderson raised Brutus from a cub after he was born at an overpopulated wildlife park.

Brutus even served as Anderson’s best man when he recently got married.

The pictures are undeniably amazing, and the story of this relationship is wonderful, but I can’t help but worry. Grizzlies may not be blood-thristy manhunters as they are often portrayed, but they are wild animals capable of turning on their keepers at any moment. Anderson is taking his life into his hands with this relationship. Maybe he sees his relationship with Brutus as worth the risk, but he needs to be especially careful about bringing Brutus near others.

As awful as it would be if Brutus turned on Anderson, he would probably never get over it if his best friend hurt or killed someone else.

For now, enjoy the photos.

My brother asked me to be his best man at his wedding, and I couldn’t turn him down. However, I am really worried about the best man speech. I hate public speaking, and I don’t know what to say. I don’t want to sound like an idiot, so I am hoping I can find some examples of good speeches online that I can base mine off of. I want to keep it very short though so I don’t have to talk long and have less of a chance of messing it up. I want my brother’s wedding to go well.

The perfect wedding speech will be remembered for years. But there is a lot of pressure to say the right things, whether you are the bride, the groom, the best man, or the maid of honor. You want to do your part to make the day as special as possible.

It is best to think about what you want to say or even rehearse. And if you are not sure, you can download great wedding speeches online to get ideas.
