From the Boston Globe (names & faces section), Thursday Nov. 7th.

    Garrison Keillor, humorist and creator of public radio's "A Prairie
    Home Companion," said in St. Paul he will marry a Danish woman he met
    25 years ago when she was an exchange student at his Minnesota high
    school.  Keillor, author of the best-selling "Lake Wobegon Days," said
    he and Ulla Skaerved will wed on Dec. 29 in a Lutheran church in
    Copenhagen.  It will be the second marriage for both.  As befits the 
    chronicler of smalltown life in mythical Lake Wobegon, Keillor, 43, was
    reunited with Skaerved in August at his 25-year high school reunion in
    Anoka, near Minneapolis.  They had not been in touch since 1964, he said.

        The Hydrogen Dog and the Cobalt Cat,
        side by side in the armory sat.
        Nobody thought of fusion or fission,
        everyone spoke of their peacetime mission.
        Till somebody came and opened the door
        and they they were in in a neutron fog;
        the Codrogen Cat and the Hybalt Dog.
        They mushroomed up with a terrible roar,
        and nobody, never, was there no more.

    Probable-Possible, my black hen,
    She lays eggs in the Relative When.
    She doesn't lay eggs in the Positive Now
    Because she's unable to Postulate How.

Interesting side note: a reporter for our college paper (the Daily),
writing an article about the Seattle appearances of APHC, noted that in
an installment of the News from Lake Wobegon sometime this summer,
Mr. Keillor told of his 25-year *Lake Wobegon* High School Reunion, where
he danced with the exchange student from Denmark...
