Whilst shopping for videos at Suncoast last eve [got the animated Tolkien
I was missing, one Red Dwarf tape and DVD of "The Slipper and the Rose"],
I saw for sale a pleasant plastic Buddy Jesus from "Dogma".  Art is
becoming life here.

Another modern but charming story involving a holiday cake with trinkets
in it is in J.R.R. Tolkien's "Smith of Wooton Major."
