    Right. Donder and Blitzen is German for Thunder and Lightning. Donner and Blitzen is just dumb.

    I got so Blitzened at last year’s party that I let Prancer take me home.

    I think the larger question is why did no one LEAVE the Donner party?

    It is a common misspelling… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donder even points out both names can be used interchangeably, but the original is Donder (and Blixem is the other).It’s kind of like how when some school children are taught the song “La Bamba,” they are sometimes taught that it starts out “La la la la Bamba” when the actual words are “Para bailar La Bamba” (“to dance the Bamba”). It’s a common misinterpretation and easier to say/spell for those who don’t know Spanish. ;-)

    That’s his tail? I thought he was . . . and his head was facing . . . oh, never mind. This is so embarassing!

    This gag was done almost two decades in “A Pinky & the Brain Christmas.”
