Well, this isn't nearly as successful as I had hoped.  A friend
 of mine emailed me a letter with three parts -- The words "Bear
 Hug!" then Susie Oviatt's (wonderful picture she did, btw), then
 my Big Hug from Pyro.  I thought the idea was cute, so I attempted
 to combine an edit of my big hug with Ms. Oviatt's Teddy Bear.
 I am not sure how good the result is -- maybe you all could be
 the judge  :)   (oh and if anyone who cares likes it please post
 it to alt.cuddle for those friggin sweet cuddlers.  [I love em
 to death, but I gotta be honest -- they scare me]).  :)

   I like the concept, but you need to differenciate between the bear and 
the letters.  So, with that in mind here a 5 minute attempt.  I imagine 
somebody else could do it better with a few more minutes work.
