Merry Christmas!

For tonight’s entertainment

Muppet Christmas Carol. Because the best Scrooge is Michael Caine. Period.

I’m dreaming…

Started to snow as I was coming in to work; I’m thinking I may go home through town instead of on the interstate. On the plus side, working on Christmas Eve means that I don’t have to pay pickup pinball on the road since everyone else seems to be staying home…

More Christmas Cleanup

A Transformers gingerbread house?

Sure, why not?

Cleaning up my inbox from all the Christmas stuff

Here’s a good one, from my brother:

I am willing to be you couldn’t do that as fast as that dog can–even if you were wearing Santa pants!

The Christmas Tree

Appears to be very surprised that it is nearly time for it to be taken down already.

Merry Christmas!

And as promised, here is another song from David Crowder Band:

I bet you weren’t expecting a cover of that version of the song, were you? That’s one more reason I love those guys, they can go from a bluegrass version of “Angels We Have Heard on High” straight into an excellent TSO cover. What other Christian Worship band does that?

Anyways, have a very merry Christmas, safe travels if you are going over the river and through the woods, and we’ll check back in tomorrow!

John 1:1-5
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. All things were created through Him, and apart from Him not one thing was created that has been created. Life was in Him, and that life was the light of men. That light shines in the darkness, yet the darkness did not overcome it.

Bravery

My mother and brother just bundled up and went out into the cold for some last minute grocery shopping. They tried to go out yesterday, but the parking lots of both nearby stores were completely filled up, and so they were foiled. Hopefully at 7:30 in the morning things will be a touch more sedate. Cross your fingers, anyway.

Oh Come, Oh Come Emmanuel

A song for Christmas Eve.

Courtesy of David Crowder Band. A good rendition of it, one of my favorites. Expect another DCB song tomorrow.

Hope you have a good day, leading up to another!

Cool!

I just found that Pandora Radio has a “Electronic Christmas” station! 

Because I get sick of hearing the same version of “Jingle Bells” over and over, so throwing in some loops and drums can freshen it up a bit.  Maybe I’ll make it to Christmas day without going insane, after all!

A Yello Christmas

Yello is awesome, even if this is actually a kinda crappy quality video.

Scary!

Dear Santa,
Ok, this is how it’s gonna go down. You know where I live, and you know what I want, so unless I get it on Christmas morning, Blitzen’s going next. I’ll work my way down one sleigh-puller at a time. I got eight more bullets.
Make it happen fat man.
Make it happen.

(From an email I got)

A continuation of last night

Sometimes it is good to put away your cynicism, sit down with your family, and watch a Christmas movie. It may be harder at some times than others, but it may just do a body good.

Oh, and great minds think alike?

And even more serendipity with today’s music?

Muppet Christmas Carol

A real true family tradition. Hard to beat Michael Cane as Scrooge, and Gonzo as Charles Dickens.
