Well, the best I've gotten with it so far is:
To make a long story short, crazy aunt's between Gary's home and the underworld.
Which is maybe better, but not there yet.

edda is a norse mythology (saga), chr for chronicles (common abbrev. used for the book of the bible).
santana, santa + an ('santa ana' the more common rendering)

Ah, thanks. Had been trying to fit "IH" into santa (for one, and hot)unsuccessfully there. Did not know the edda thing, though had considered cheddar as a possible answer.
I do like this thread, and I'm glad it's back.

Yes! OTT in cages. I hate when you stare at these for ages and can't get them, then someone else does and it's really really obvious.
― ailsa, Tuesday, 21 October 2008 13:30 (fifteen years ago) link
I thought about cottages yesterday, but I could see how it worked. I still didn't understand the OTT until you just capitalized it.
