'The News from Lake Wobegon'

Everything's ready for cold weather but there's no snow. The new creche went into service at Our Lady. Sister Arvanne got help for the Christmas pageant. Kelly Krepsbach took over the kid's choir. David Jaeger was stage manager. David is in love with Kelly and he forgot the sheep. Ronny Herberger raises the sheep. Ronny expects YK2 to produce Armageddon. David decided to have Kelly's picture tattooed on his chest. He was driving to get the tattoo when he remembered the sheep. David called Ronny and agreed to look after the baby while Ronny took the sheep to Our Lady. David Jaeger agreed to deliver the baby to Randy in LW. Instead, David drove to Minneapolis and got the first part of the tattoo. Ronny delivered the four sheep to Our Lady. They give the sheep cocktails of peppermint schnapps and Simlac. Then Ronny noticed that David had not delivered the baby to Randy. He had a horrible premonition and he prayed. The pageant started . David Jaeger arrived at the church with the baby.
