on Prairie Home Companion tonight

"Deer will roost"? Wild turkeys, which you were talking about earlier
(in fairly horrific terms which surprised me) might but I don't think
deer do.

And...

"Lyme's disease"? Is that what they call it in Minnesota? Here in NY
we call it Lyme disease after Lyme and Old Lyme, CT where it got its
name.

Earlier he had a skit that decried the abuses of language. Ironic
that he did just that a little later on.

Best bit on today's show: The Spring Warning System. 'Had Spring been
arriving, you would have been told. It hasn't.'
