Blitzen
“Chet?” Bernie said, as we climbed a rocky and snowy trail up a steep slope, “maybe let Blitzen lead the way? Just this once, since he seems to have some sort of destination in mind?”
Oh, Bernie! Wasn’t it clear that Blitzen’s mind was a complete blank? With Blitzen in the lead – yes, I’d let him lead from time to time, being a very good boy, but only because it was Bernie doing the asking – we’d been up and down, back and forth, even crossing our own path more than once. Crossing our own path! How shameful!
(Coming Oct. 17, preorders a fine idea!)

Well, if I owned a reindeer farm and I had reindeer the first 8 would be named for Clement Moore’s poetic herd, but no Donner. It’s Donder. Donder and Blitzen. Thunder and Lightening. Then I might name the 9th and 10th Thunder and Lightening.
But no Rudolph. Or even Rudolf.
