Oh, never doubted Arlo did that for real. The retellings get better and better.

Saw him perform this a few years back. He gave us a bit of back story and also some more modern stories about some in that cast of characters.

It looks like you couldn't drop in today so we went ahead and ate. We are about to act out that song while we put away the leftovers.

Lead us not into Penn Station

unfortunately ^ known a bit too well. Which is why

the cost of the airport club is totally worth every penny. ^ Chicago O'Hare, where on the timeline that brings me here now, I'm known on sight. And it's this Admiral's Club I am most grateful for, the value of the sanity factor is incalculable.

My "trick" to be left alone on a flight is a thick book too obscure for any to dare conversation. Which worked great until the day I am seated next to an Icelander as I read a book about Icelandic runes. "Oh, they're all over the place, why would you want to know about them?" she asks.

Rabbits hold a huge fascination for Odin, too. He's not a deer chaser, happily.

For a breed that's supposed to enjoy water, Odin appears to be the exception that proves the rule. I've watched him detour around water, even balancing on a railroad tie to avoid getting wet. So, a great deal like me. <shrug>

Lead us not into Penn Station

And deliver us from weevils.

I hope that he never kills a rabbit. A dying rabbit has a haunting cry.

And deliver us from weevils.

...for thine is the abyss, the helplessness and the obscurity forever and ever...

Not on my watch, he won't. We play ball, and he has his chewies and squeaky toys. Today was his fun day with his squeaky alligator that rattles when shaken.

Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?

Of course it is! It's at least as believable as a 300-lb fat man with a bottomless bag full of merchandise being carried aloft by a bunch of semi-tame game animals!
