Attack of the Killer Sebelius

Sometimes music takes you away a few bars of Sebelius cuts through the clutter of school lunch preparation. and I'm in the fiords the soul home I've never seen. I know little of Finland and first met Matti at a meeting in Dallas where he a two day visitor argued with the cabby over the best way downtown. When we arrived, he gave an excellent tour of the corner where JFK ended. Later, another meeting. this time in Wisconsin as we shared our duty free. he spoke of his son's summer job folk dancing on a ferry crossing the Gulf of Bothnia. Running the next morning in the cold spring air I realized the big flat winged raptor high overhead was an eagle. Chatting with our four year-old he explains that although Godzilla is a boy's name she laid eggs one remains and do I know what attack means?
