Don't think that would go over big around here... this is grizzly bear / cougar country...
Brings to mind a graphic I saw on Pinterest... caption was... "IF you are going to be dumb... you better be able to run... FAST" Picture was a guy in a hoodie holding a Grizzly cub by the scruff of the neck... and Momma bear right behind him... and he was standing still... unaware.
Probably photo shopped though.

It looks like BACON! Who wouldn't want to be wrapped in bacon? I would wear it to every neighborhood party because someone always brings a bacon-wrapped something. Shrimp, water chestnuts, dates, pretzel rods, meatballs.... With my bacon disguise, I'd blend right in to the serving plate and could grab more than my share and no one would be the wiser.

So I just read Stan Lee died. :( I didn't really read the comics, but I collected the trading cards and watch the cartoons. I enjoyed trying to draw the characters on my cards.
I think we might need a Marvel Universe Tracker.
Any interest?

Perhaps both.

Remember when I got arrested?

Quite some years ago, at a Letterboxing event, I got arrested.
Yeah, it was April Fools... and the "arresting officer" was my son, who was in High School at the time.
This is the man he grew up to be (Detective John Berkeland):

He explained, "they told us not to smile, because it's a fire." I told him he reminds me of a toddler who is trying to scowl while someone is tickling him.

Don't feel like you can't join or won't win because you don't know about college football. This pool is so fun that I joined the March Madness this past spring. I know less than nothing about NCAA basketball and I still won a stamp. It's really a lot of fun.

OK, I listed an LTC tracker here: https://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.html?gTrackerId=10029
And a Traditional Tracker here: https://www.atlasquest.com/showinfo.html?gTrackerId=10030
Feel free to use the stamp from the LTC in the Traditional, just make sure to note that in your clue.
Thanks everyone.

For a second, I thought you were referring to Stan Lee's death. "Don't be sad his life is over--just be glad he died!"
And I thought, "Whaaaat?"
