My apologies for the long delay since the last podcast. The time between our Thanksgiving holiday at the end of November, and the Christmas holiday in December is always very busy. Choosing presents for the grandchildren, preparing for winter, and lots more. But I’m back! When we left off, Goldilocks had settled into the baby bear’s bed and was fast asleep. Let’s continue our story:

Goldilocks was dreaming, but at the local police station two bear policemen were arguing.
“I’m not going!” insisted Officer Mo. “The last time we went to that house, it was full of snakes and spiders!”
“We have to go,” replied Officer Curly. “It’s our job to respond when there’s an alarm.”
“It takes half an hour to bicycle there,” said Officer Mo. “By the time we arrive, whoever set off the alarm will be long gone.”
“Mo, are you hungry?” asked Officer Curly.
“What? What does hungry have to do with an alarm?”
“Well,” said Officer Curly, “we could stop at that new steakhouse on our way to the house of the three bears and grab some dinner. It’s always better to investigate a crime scene after a good meal.”
"Dinner?" said Office Mo. "Curly, it's only 9 in the morning."
Office Curly slapped his forehead. "I'm all messed up," he said. "I didn't eat dinner last night and I've been thinking about it all morning."
"No problem," said Officer Mo. “We can peddle our bikes to  Betty Bears Breakfast Bonanza, enjoy one of her famous five-course breakfasts, and by the time we arrive at the house, the three bears will have solved the crime all by themselves.”   
“Exactly,” said Officer Curly. “We’ll congratulate them, tell them how smart they are, and come back to the station and spend the rest of the day loafing and playing cards.”
“You’re a genius!” said Officer Mo.
“I know,” replied Officer Curly. “Now let’s get going—I’m hungry!”
