It's So Hanna-Barberaesque

Two divable girlfriends-- Sheena the Lioness and Raquel Wrench-- who could never resist the sensation of a diving experience so offered.

Only this time, they're pulling off an underwater swim "just to limber up ahead of the next dive" more than anything.

The practice isn't that uncommon with our feline diver gals, doubtless rather close in friendship all because of a chance meeting on set.

And when you're in the shallows with them by sheer serendipitous chance-- what more could make a difference, even an offer of diving lessons?

So July 4th was busy in the Dells, inevitably ... and between the sunrise and the pyrotechnica, you probably had to wonder if President Trump's insanity and derangements may be driving the Nation all the deeper into our betrayal. Or is it? Or could it be possible that President Trump will likely be yielding up the ghost before too long anyway?

But just give me some grilled Johnsonville Dr Pepper Infused Smoked Sausages, a few worthwhile friends, some sun tea sangria, and a sort of mugginess in the air, and you'd probably have the ideal sort of July 4th afternoon in the Wisconsin stylee.

Speaking of those Dr Pepper smoked sausages, isn't it amusing to find a Texas-based soft drink being inspiration for Wisconsin smoked sausage? Next thing you know, imagine Moxie-inspired smoked sausage, with that God-awful taste of Fletcher's Castoria and all that.

For some reason, I had to slake my thirst on two(!!) bottles of New Glarus Brewing's cult brew, Spotted Cow, when I had some beer fries topped with chili and cheese at Monk's Bar downtown. What could be more irresistible motivation for a legendary bar's fare?

I'd rather prefer a one-litre bottle of lime seltzer water than a can of White Claw, never mind the T-shirt meme "There's No Laws When You're Drinking Claws."

Mise en scene: The shallows of some lake in northern Minnesota by which the madcap ursine trio known as the Hair Bear Bunch have set up the latest iteration of Camp Volkswagen during their ursine mating season road trip, their annual exercise in madcap mating adventures such as help them feel relaxed.

Our attention this time is on Hair Bear and the juvenile ursine bundle of energy known as Bubi Bear ... who. going back to the Wonderland Zoo days of the trio, were quite the pair of teacher and pupil impromptu in many a misadventure of escaping from their zoo confines under the noses of Zookeepers Lionel Botch and Eustis Peevly, continuing onward after the zoo's shock closing and their finding comfort and freedom at their Secret Surf and Dive Spot bivouac outside Malibu, with the annual road trip during the ursine mating season adding some variety to their escapades.

Now to our scene: In their ursine nakedness most unashamed, teacher and pupil waded in the lake's shallows on a hazy and muggy summer's day such as was bound to find some incentive to go diving in the lake, a rather clear and crystalline such promising to have its share of clean coolness no bear could resist.

"You know, Bubi," Hair Bear remarked in waters roughly chest high to an average bear, "you can never become too bored when you're diving underwater." Prompting Bubi to remark "Oh, what could actually be so excitably exciting, just me in my own nakedness swimming around and feeling so fine all along!"

"Good explanation there, Bubi," remarked Hair Bear, patting Bubi on the head. "Now let's get into diving mode!", followed by some deep breathing to maintain their descent ... and then, the descent into said lake, which, all in all, was about 30 feet deep maximum. Such bulk of the ursine sort assured Hair and Bubi of an easy descent, and with no need for masks thanks to bears having an uncanny ability to see underwater with their own eyes only, the view underwater couldn't help but be even more fascinating than they ever expected.

Schools of game fish galore like walleye. bass and muskies were quick to make their presence known to our ursine class of a kind, swimming along the lake bottom and sensing the sway of lake grasses with the flow of water from underground springs, grasses proving attractive to Hair and Bubi for a few moments' underwater enchantment made especially evident by just laying back in such underwater lushness and wonder of lake grasses otherwise uncompromised by the likes of curly leaf pondweed and duckweed. O, to be a bear underwater fully naked and at once underwater and fascinated by the feeling!

At any rate, teacher and pupil had to return to the surface to catch their breath and get things prepared, among other things, for the evening's orgy exercise; a smooth and steady ascent was more or less the rule, the sunlight dappling its way through the lake's waters and adding its own sort of magic to the proceedings. Once back on the surface--

"Bubi--?"

"That's the clyde you're asking about, Hair?"

"Did you notice something a little delightful between your legs when we were underwater in the patch of aquatic grass?"

"And didn't you also experience much the same thing--as in some underwater wood?"

"Rather surprising we noticed as much, Bubi," Hair Bear confidently remarked; "it seems we can't help but become so aroused and at once fasconated underwater!"

Bubi: "And what a release into the lake we must've had, what a show most wonderfully fascinating!"

"Bubi, teacher as I am to you all this time, it will fascinate you to know that we had serious erections of our penises underwater ... and doesn't it feel fascinating to feel good with the world when you're underwater like we can get to be at times?"

"I never knew the clyde diving could do such a thing!"

"For some reason," Hair Bear remarked, "it happens to the best fo us ... and what could be a more delightful way of showing that all's feeling as good as it can get ... nothing could get better than this, I say!"

The two had a warm and wholehearted bear hug about it mixed with chuckling and laughs as teacher and student prepated for another such dive.
