@Shteyngart We went when we were in Reykjavik! Crazy and quite popular. We didn't have too much time so we had to, um, cut it a bit short.

@BenVolin Notice that Brady has several times pointed at Mahommes' footwork. "He doesn't look comfortable out there."

@WriterRalph17 I have aspirations…someday when I have more spare time. 🙂 I was a voracious reader as a kid and the peanut butter story stuck with me all these years. Back to the search! Thanks for answering.

@WriterRalph17 A shot in the dark - I have been trying for decades to confirm if you wrote a short story in the 1990s called "The Eye" about a boy demonstrating how to make a peanut butter sandwich who takes a bite and is unable to swallow it. I can't find it anywhere!
