We're on break for the rest of the month (July, 2022). In our absence we're bumping some old hits from the stacks like this gem from June, 2020. Let's see how well these old pants fit:
This week in Iceland, we meet a good boy who's afraid of nothing. He lives in his haunted house, simmering his mutton soup for ghosts. He makes the bed and does the chores, and never hesitates to fling himself into battle. He even walks, drunk, headlong into death, all for the love of his friends. But that's where things take a turn. Will his fearlessness prevail? Can we join this fraternity? Join us as we stare fear directly in the backwards face.
