the other Valhalla Java

[John Rose]

If you enjoy sagas of Volsungs, dragons, and other "northern-ness", you
probably already know that the Death Wish Coffee Company has a product
called Valhalla Java.  Or maybe you've just seen the nifty black and gold
sticker on my laptop.  In any case, my California winters just got warmer:

You may enjoy this also.  If not, I apologize for the bit of spam.

(Yeah, California.  Eternal battle with frost giants can be enjoyed here
from a safe distance.  Could be I don't know what what I'm Nisse-ing.)

Happy new year!  This is going to be a good one for *our* Valhalla Java.

P.S. Here's another bit I enjoy from that esthetic:
Tolkien, The Legend of Sigurd and Gudrún, 2009
