Cool! ;)

Right, this is easy, but I can't think too much at the moment (scorching in this un-air-con-equipped office!)

A man is sitting in a room that has an all-southern view. A bear walks past the window, what colour is it, and why?

i'd guess that the room is at the north pole so the bear must be polar and therefore white.

Anything to do with licking the backs of stamps?

no and no. his job did not require him to drink (or eat poison), he just kinda went off the rails.

no. but it would have been a good clue if it was intentional and you had been right.

not a postman either but he was a public servant of some sort. (if you want an abstruse clue you are looking at one.)

Was he a politician?

not a politician either (i just found that i did ask this Q before in a very old phœnix). giving any other clues would not be politically correct.
