NORWAY
The whole mountainside is carpeted in blueberries!
And juniper. Some say it's surely mushroom season.

The children wander off for a few minutes and taste the delicacies.


NOW. Magick children. 
They are the rulers of Álfheimr. 
They are elfin dams protecting Midgard from the torrents of nature.


They are fiercesome warriors, saving us all from Trollebotten fiends.  

They are Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley.


They are the 1960s. 
They are Alexander Tucker. 

They see wonderous sights. 
A bearded man in a fox stole and his twin float by.


A hooded beast with a magic wand comes to them in the night.


They see the future.




They laugh at their new found powers. They laugh some more. 

They forget why they are laughing.



KISS play on.

Like the Mississippi, which also traverses flat, low-lying country, the Ob flows in lazy bends and loops, and changes its course slightly when it floods.  In May 1979, swollen by melting snow, the Ob began eating away at its banks at a Siberian town called Kolpashevo. As the flood waters gnawed deeper into the base of the river bank, the earth and sand that crumbled into the water disclosed a mass of human skeletons. Beneath this strata of bones was another la...

Simeon is still there. The rock gets smaller every day, a change imperceptible to the eye, but he's still up there suspended by some unknown force.  He received a visitor the other day: a wild eyed boy with a poisoned leg, and the gait of a wading bird.  The boy spoke. It seemed to Simeon that he was speaking to somebody else but no one else was there. "They said that I look like an Old Believer. What's the use? I'm clean shaven!". Simeon found it very difficult to keep his eyes on the horizon.  (                                                                                          ) (                                           ...
