There’s the bunny, so Easter must be right around the corner, which in this case would be Walnut Street.
Figurines
Elvis once did something similar to a TV when Robert Goulet was on.
That story is HERE.
Springsteen alludes to it HERE (at 1:32).
A ton of tundras
Well, not really.
The average tundra swan weighs about 14 pounds, so it would it take about 143 to make a ton.

It’s OK if you like that one show on that one station.

They're back – the flies and the smell
A source has informed Columbia Spy that flies (and a pungent malodor) are already present around the piles of chicken manure recently dumped near the intersection of Twelfth and Franklin Streets at McGinness Field.
Two years ago, similar conditions at McGinness Field led to a massive fly infestation and a widespread foul odor.

Happy Leap Day!
According to Wikipedia:
“February 29, also known as leap day or leap year day in the Gregorian calendar, is a date that occurs in most years that are divisible by 4, such as 2008, 2012, 2016, 2020, and 2024. Years that are divisible by 100, but not by 400, do not contain a leap day. Thus, 1700, 1800, and 1900 did not contain a leap day, 2100, 2200, and 2300 will not contain a leap day, while 1600 and 2000 did, and 2400 will. Years containing a leap day are called leap years. February 29 is the 60th day of the Gregorian calendar in such a year, with 306 days remaining until the end of the year. In theChinese calendar, this day will only occur in years of the monkey, dragon, and rat.
A leap day is observed because a complete revolution around the Sun takes slightly longer than 365 days. It compensates for this lag, realigning the calendar with the Earth’s position in the Solar System; otherwise, seasons would occur in a different time than intended in the calendar year.”
