" Meat on the Green "

"Born with the moon in Cancer .. Choose her a name she will answer to ... Call her green, And the winters cannot fade her .. Call her green, For the children who've made her .. Little green, be a GYPSY DANCER ..." Little-known fact from the depths of cyberspace: "According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, while both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year (the only members of the deer family, Cervidae, to have females do so), male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid December. Female reindeer retain their antlers till after they give birth in the spring. Therefore, according to every historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, every single one of them, from Rudolf to Blitzen ... had to be FEMALE. We should've known this when they were able to find their way." ; - ) July 25, 2012
