SMOKEY BEAR TO REINCARNATE AS FEMALE POLAR BEAR?

PHOENIX (Wireless Flash) -- Next Tuesday (May 9) marks the 50th anniversary of the day the real Smokey Bear was found. On May 9, 1950, a little male bear cub survived a forest fire in the Capitan Mountains of New Mexico and was nursed back to health. The game warden who found the cub named it after the fictional Smokey Bear. The bear spent 26 years at the National Zoo as an official symbol of forest fire prevention before his death in 1976. But get a load of this: these days, Smokey is getting ready to reincarnate as a female polar bear. That's according to Phoenix psychic Chereise Pike, who claims she contacted the bear from beyond the grave and Smokey told her he plans to reincarnate as a female polar bear. She claims Smokey says he wants to be a woman in his next life because he regrets not settling down and having a family.
