TC,

How'd you manage to slip the odd-eyed NL Cy Young winner in amongst Bob's Big 14? Please bring Herr Herrick to this space as often as you please, cause well, he's the bees' knees.

Must swab the deck and wax the floor,
In hopes of Vikings fallen
And Lions roar.

Happy Tom Day,

k

Thank you Kent. Popular acclaim beats Tryptopan every time I always say. The remaining 1086 Robin Herrick immortal ditties shall be up here awaiting you bright and early on Bagel Friday.

Peeked at your Kitties being overrun by unkind viking horde as L Train Murray, who has never in his life bent over, stood tall and proud and vulnerable, running straight-up and stiff as a tin soldier in a purple suit right through them as though they had not had their morning bagel and dish of warm milk, ultimately sustaining a brutal and entirely uncalled-for goal line hit that will have made thousands of brain cells short out, suggesting the depths of unkindness to which Kitties will stoop may be literally fathomless.

Still did that hit derail (detain) the L-Train? No. Such a festive holiday if you are a viking horde.

Old Hrothgar meanwhile just belched on contentedly from over there in his corner, where his oar is kept. He keeps it by his side at all times in consideration of the possibility of a sneak attack against Nova Scotia, or whatever that place is, glimmering so tantalizingly, there through the glowing frozen fog. He has pretty bad manners and frankly is happy enough just sitting there drooling on his bib and thinking the dunce cap we make him wear at holidays is a party hat.

"I like the stuffing best," he sometimes seems to be saying. Other times we suspect our interpretations to be nothing more than desperate attempts to convince ourselves that it is, after all, the most intelligible ergo least objectionable of the holidays, if only because it still leaves the door open to the possibility that the planet will be destroyed in a massive nuclear exchange before Bagel Friday ever gets a chance to happen.

Oy such a year it has been. And which of us is still here to even say that much.

That which is you, and I
declare Bagel Fridays
beat nuke exchange every time
ergo every day Tom Day
evermore, evermore.
