I'm also reuniting my old Gospel group from back in Georgia called The Macon Believers. Nobody ever really took us seriously, for some reason, but we'll give it the old Holiday Try when Tattie is through......

Overseeing Tattie's classical ensemble would be Bogle minding, I imagine......

Severn has just asked the birthday revelers in the private banquet room for pictures and autographs. The Birthday Boy turns to his Mother, and Mary nods and says, "Let it be!", so with an official OK, Severn sets to work. He snaps the whole table, but it's hard to get everybody in. He singles out two particular heroes, Joseph (whom Severn has always thought of as his unofficial Patron Saint ever since back when he became a stepfather)and Captain Noonan, both who have stood by while others got the glory. Severn wishes he had a better camera that could adjust to the extra light generated from those glowing yellow circles around Joseph, Mary and Jesus' heads. Severn asks Joseph if there was any way to dim the halo down and Joseph shakes his head no.

"Just curious about the halo, Joseph." says Severn. "Is it safe to touch it?"
Mary stands up, shakes her head no and warns, "LET IT BE!"
Severn backs off......

Meanwhile the squidlets, as originally feared before most people got too drunk to care, have been pilfering small items and decoration the tree with them. Hats (including that of the cop), watches, purses, camera bags etc. now adorn the tree, and they'd started their decorating from the top down......

Severn asks Elvis where Buddy Holly was, and Elvis tells him that he indeed lives, but he's still on life support.
"The Holly and the IV, eh?"
"You got it." nods Elvis.

Severn asks Jesus if since he was back, was he bringing Armageddon.
"I never really left", replies Jesus. We were all in God's equivalent of a Witness Protection Program, and we came out for a private party."

"I'm in the Jehovah's Witness Protection Program", says Severn. Those Mormons and such can't find me.".......
