Based on the front-page teaser . . .
. . . I thought I'd be reading a Daniel Pinkwater story.
A gift-delivering chicken would fit right into his cosmology.
I recently watched, on my new HDTV, "The Polar Express." Beyond the disturbing hi-res uncanny valley animation, there was something really creepy about the basic theme of the enterprise. A kid old enough to see with his own eyes that Santa, isn't, gets dragged to the top of the earth and smacked on the face with great wonders to restore his faith.
There needs to be a better exit strategy from childhood beliefs. One that will lead the kid to being a world healer.
Bok, Bok, Bok!
