"So I bought a generator, lit up the area and put on songs of (Serbian 'turbo-folk' star) Ceca."

The bear stayed away for a few weeks, but came back when the generator ran out of power and the music fell silent, Mr Kiseloski said, adding, "it attacked the beehives again."

A court in the city of Bitola found the bear guilty, and since it had no owner and belonged to a protected species, ordered the state to pay the 140,000 denars ($3,550) damage it caused to the hives.

There was no information on the whereabouts of the bear.

Stealing? Stealing Honey? Pooh bear meets Yogi.

Also. Turbo Folk music: what is it? Discuss please~ =(

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Shouldn't have used a generator made in that Yugo factory.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

That's what you get when you let bears cross the border and steal honey that could have gone to legal citizens. He just stole the honey and ran, and the state is paying the price. I say we build an anti-bear fence along the Mexican border before this happens to the US in complete disregard that there are probably more bears near the Canadian border!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I went to a turbo-folk gig once. It's essentially folk music played on electric guitars and shit, very odd indeed.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
