The Norse goddess from whom we get the day of the week Friday, I think. But I don't get TEd's pun.

I guess I reached a bit far with that one. Sorry!
Frigga In Norse mythology, queen of the gods; wife of Odin. Her sons were Balder, the beloved god; Bragi, god of poetry and wisdom; and Thor, god of thunder. She was one of the Aesir, the principal warrior gods who lived in Asgard. Friday was named after her.
Although initially separate deities, Frigga was assimilated in mythology with Freya, a Vanir (fertility goddess), who arrived in Asgard after a war between the gods.

FWIW, I got it. I just resisted the impulse to respond with a reference to how that pun made me Thor. But now, see, you've gone and made me do it anyway. Don't get all Bragi about it; this will just get Balder and Balder.

You trying to follow my Leda? Or do you just want to Pan my pun? As Jackie would say, "Chimaera. I've got something for you."
Juno?

Wull, I thought TEd's original Freya/Frigga pun was OK, but ledasdottir's swan song was the onliest one made me LLOL.

it has been said that pigeons lay two eggs, one comes out female - the other male one day apart - but needless to say there is research which says is isn't so. Old wives didn't do research did they?
