It's that lovely time of year, when the days of summer drift far away and the cold of winter rears its head. The sun sets earlier and the mountains turn a pearly white. Once more, fans in blue and gold clad descend on the treacherous grounds of silicon valley in search of a misplaced axe. Surely, some of these red toting being's may know where it has been incorrectly stored and wouldn't mind giving it back to the rightful owner. You see, a Bear and an axe date back before any axe ever met a tree. In fact, ancient history suggests that it was a grizzly bear who first fashioned an axe to remove a berry stuck in its paw. It is on this fact that we stake our claim, that the one and only axe was stolen from us and we have come for its rightful return. The Bears have been hibernating, waiting for their moment. Now that their moment is here, it will be surely ours to take.

Beat the tree's!
