Kelly: You asked where the phrase "crossing the Rainbow Bridge" came from. It is from Scandinavian mythology - the bridge that linked Midgard (the land of humans) to Asgard (land of the gods) was built of fire, air and water, and took the form of a rainbow (note: it was known as Bifrost/Asa-Bridge/Asabru). Speaking of all this literary stuff, does anyone else have ferret who like books? I have 3 large bookcases, and my two fuzzies have taken to shoving out selected books from the bottom shelves. Their favorites are "Abnormal Psycology" and "Cultural Anthropology" and "The Complete Guide to Sewing." Hmmmm. I could almost excuse the first two as an attempt by the ferrets to learn more about us humans (after all, I have several books about ferrets).... but sewing? Who would have guessed! And Kelleen - your Ode To Racy was beautiful! Chris and Vanessa and the two bookworms, Mina and Josette [Posted in FML issue 1374]
