Okay, I am not doing this "logic puzzle" because my brain is fried from the stocking swap! But I do want you to know I have been talking about your beautiful peaches and pears you canned all week to my friends! You are wonder woman to me Amy!
Have a blessed day today! I know you will.

I am just another fried brain here. I will wait for your sisters comment to get the answer right. Fun sitting by you today. You always make me smile :)
Joe and Jasper are the bears. :)
After 30 min of Spurgeon debate. Jasper is a bear. PHew!!!!!!!!
I concur. Jasper is a bear. That one had me frustrated for a few minutes, but in the end I got it and I didn't even have to call you for hints!
Although really, we know that Jasper is a vampire who eats bears.
This made my brain tired just reading it. I guess I should be more willing to excercise my brain so I don't lose it but I usually just have too many other things on my mind to devote to these kinds of puzzles.
I'm glad to see I'm right again! I didn't check any comments till I figured it out. Yes, Jasper is a bear. But I loved Alicia's second answer!
Ok- I am so going to be brain dead by the time I am 40 - 18 more days.. Seriously- WHAT! I am so retarded at riddles & anything requiring me to think...
I agree with your sister - yeah that's it, she's right!
