A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Fun Fact - Poodles were originally cut that way so that their owners could benefit from the animal's body heat. Especially when the dog would curl up around the feet to keep warm themselves because all their hair had been cut off.

@Steveo: I wonder if it was that Erik Jacobson guy. He's a cellist who busks in stations throughout Brooklyn, and I've sometimes seen him in Manhattan. Really talented.
