Maybe they'd have to hold each other when it rose, all organe and full and close. Maybe that's where our romantic notions about the moon first came from. Two people holding each other to keep their hearts from breaking, because everybody they knew was dying in the cold rocks and dust piles a quarter million miles away...

Today at lunch, my boss, who had just returned from a cruise to Northern Norway, was telling us about all the things they'd eaten (apparently that's all they did on this boat). He said that the last meal was reindeer stew, that was pretty tasty.
I was like, "Doesn't it seem sacrilegious to eat reindeer meat?"
My boss's boss replied, "Well, let's see. The Jewish won't eat pigs, the Hinidi won't eat cow, both for religious reasons..."
Then my other boss put in, "The American's won't eat reindeer, because Santa is as religious as they get."
I was absolutely dying at this...but it's a sad state of affairs, no?
