Gods of Fury, Wandering, Poetry...

We're in Odin today, a smallish Illinois town who got their name from this guy:

Coincidentally, i recognize him as the guy who lives in the alleyway right behind my apartment! How cool is that? A letter is in order for Odin, Illinois, to notify the mayor that i've discovered the secret hiding place of this Norse death-monger.

Odin, in most circles, is a Norse equivalent to Zeus, with the exception that he doesn't fraternize with the lady-folk of the Norwegian lore, so much as wander, grow beards, and become furious/and or speak in verse. These are the types of traits i think i'd like to accrue by the time i'm old enough to grow a tremendous white beard, ponder over wild oxen, or lose an eye.

I once met a man who had a dog named Odin. I rather liked Odin.
