I was trying to find out if there was a single word to mean the bumper at the end of a parking spot. [Sunny Brook Pressed Concrete] Parking bumper is a little unwieldy, and wheel chock seems to be more about airplanes or trailers than general parking spaces.
Teddy bears are, of course, named after US President Theodore Teddy Roosevelt. The name came about after a 1902 hunting expedition. The hunt had found no game, so at the end of the day someone brought out a baby bear and suggested that Roosevelt might like to shoot it instead.
Its just short for Theodore (Ted, Teddy). it came from when he was out hunting and he saw a bear with its baby cub and he refused to shoot the bear because of its cub, whichâ¦ is where teddy came from and the reason why toy bears are called teddy bears. because of Theodore's act of not killing the mother bear.
