Dasher, Dancer, Prancer and NIXON?!?

Saturday's weather wasn't too pretty, so we went and spend some of it in St. Gallen shopping. Didn't get too much, but visited a lot of stores.

In the evening we went to Martina and Urs' concert. It's a four-person acapella group and their Xmas concert was a lot of fun (and one of the reasons we traveled so early). A mix of Blues, Jazz, Gospel, Pop and Rap (you think what white Americans rapping is funny, you should hear it with a Swiss accent). I think my favorite song was their rendition of "Byla Cesta Ušlapaná", a modern (I think) Czech carol.

One of their most successful songs was "Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer". We were a bit taken aback when they began it with "You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Nixon..." Later Urs explained (and I remembered) that "Vixen" is slang for "a man who pleasures himself" as my sister put it. I guess some things don't translate that well...
