At some wifi pub on a dingy sidestreet of Valhalla the three shabby revenants in faded blue sitting in the corner booth pause over their whiskey as they overhear the Valkyries at the next table over - who have just opened their Æsirnet connection - swear and exclaim something about "...already working on becoming the most fucking corrupt presidential administration in American history".
Bill Sherman guffaws and slaps the dusty little man sitting beside him as Phil Sheridan raises his glass to his friend. Ulysses Grant simply takes a long pull on his stogie and slouches back with a sour little knowing smirk that says everything you need to know about his opinion of coming fate of the 45th President of the United States.

AEsirnet???
Hey! Just because they're Old Norse doesn't mean they're barbarians..!
Of course the one problem in Valhalla is that the only song played while waiting on the phone is 'Ride of the Valkyries' :)
I n my Valhalla it alternates with "The Immigrant Song"...
Thanks! I hadn't heard that in a looooooooooooooooooong time - long before either of us wore green.
I'll see your AEsirnet and raise to Valkyries on Rocking Horses and Slipper Slides

Barry: I heard that song both after I wore green and before I wore green again....
Summer, Winter, Spring ..... It sounds better that way.
