American Gods (Or Why Neil Gaiman is Badass)

If modern America has gods, then our Zeus is Kermit the Frog.

This occurred to me as I watched the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade last week. Some Disney Channel pre-stripper was riding on a float and singing a duet with KtF, and the only thing I could think was, "I want to meet Kermit." In the big, grand scheme of things, I suppose there could be worse gods to have.
