If Twisted Sister and a Katharine Harris lookalike doing "O Come All Ye Faithful" isn’t enough for you, how about Darth Vader’s younger brother Chad lounging in his smoking jacket and "Christmas pants" and singing "Santa Baby"?
How about a borderline death metal song called "Christmas Is Awesome"? You haven’t lived ’till you’ve seen death metal performed in festive Christmas tree sweaters.
Or a David Hasselhoff Christmas medley?
The inimitable Grace Jones singing "Little Drummer Boy" on Pee-Wee’s Playhouse? Or the Bing Crosby and David Bowie version ("Sir Percival lets me use his piano when he’s not around"), for that matter?
But for the piece de resistance, I’m not sure anything can top RuPaul singing "Santa Baby" while being heckled by his/her own evil twin ("A ring, honey, and I don’t mean around the collar!")…
Go forth and spread these around, and I guarantee that in no time at all, the hobnailed boot of Christmas will be nothing more than a warm, fuzzy, distant memory.

Mele Kalikimaka, Eli!
Zed?
Um, yeah. What CTut said.
Oops, just missed the zed on a drive-by.
Merry Christmas all. Food coma settling in.
*waving white flag* eli, that video beats everything I have in my stash.
Just be thankful that the Klingon version of A Christmas Carol didn’t make the cut.
Hey, Eli, there’s nothing wrong with Bing’s and David’s duet… ;-)
We’re OK with Der Bingle too. ;0)
No, no, of course not. And that banter isn’t awkward and stilted at all.
I didn’t infer that… *g*
As for us… well… were having a white Christmas tonight. It’s starting to snow.
I didn’t watch a video of Cartman singing “O Holy Night” this year. damn. Love that. But that war on Christmas, man. Now I’m hearing that was going on when I was a kid. Jeez, I never knew. sa war and I didn’t know. I mean when people said “happy Holidays” back then, I thought it meant…um … happy holidays, like Xmas, New Year’s Eve, New Year’s Day, like, the whole Holiday, yes, Xmas, season. Glad I learned the truth and so glad the good guys won.
My food coma is setting in too. My back is killing me from sitting on the floor and wrapping presents for hours until almost 2 am. But the food was great.
hope everyone’s Xmas was good.
I gotta go to work tomorrow, damnit.
I’ll give ya, stilted… ;-)
…tiger on the loose from the SF Zoo, watch yer back, he already bit someone
Santa don’t like bad boys
Oh, and Suzanne, I need to apologize for my outburst last night. very un-Christmasy of me. But I stand by what i said-just without the f-word.
“Oh, I think it’s marrrvelous. Some of it is really *fine*…”
The clouds haven’t split enough for me to take a snapshot of Mauna Kea’s white shroud… ;-)
lahoma and I are watching “The Bishop’s Wife” for the umpteenth time tonight. I believe it was RevDeb who brought this flick up from down below. Lord, we love this movie.
We just watched “All Mine To Give”, which my stepmom insists is The Saddest Movie Of All Time.
All is good bfl :)
Heh, the Paramedics had finally realized their loss…
This should be it.

eCahn whadya think about this:

I probably should have included that…

Oh com’on. Not tonight. Email it to me or bring it to the next meetup.
No I ain’t gonna work on Maggie’s Farm no more. I told my wife that. she said I can go somewhere else for Xmas. This could be a problem.
Show of hands. Who gotta work tomorrow?
(raising hand)
I can hardly watch that movie. I don’t like to cry, especially in front of my lady. We love that film.
That is certainly an excellent representation of the dire straits we’re in… 8-(
OK
g’nite all
I used to HATE this time right now when I was a kid. It was really sinking in… deep….. Christmas is over.
Thursday. But I had to burn a vacation day.
Joyeux Noel a toutes et a tous!
I still may call out yet. I shouldn’t. But i might.
Did I tell yuz about the bilingual midnight mass at my church? I wasn’t happy. But I’ll leave that for another day.
G’night SanderO.
Heh, Nice, OKK, nowadays, the cruise set is greeted by, ahem, an elder crew of Ambassadors of Aloha… *g*
Retired, with emphasis on the last 2 syllables tonight.
ditto
So what did you do before you retired? Professional diver, or amateur enthusiast?
Jealous with an empahsis on…. um. No, that doesn’t… Never mind.
I decided to go in. I got a Starbucks gift card and I’m gonna put it to use. If I can get through the first few hours, I’ll be alright.
Just wanna say, kudos to Mrs.Beerfart Liberal for a great job cooking and baking. I’m stuffed.
I worked the streets… but in a joe friday kinda way.
B*tch with a Badge! By the way, if ya’ll can swivel your hips there’s a job dockside… *g*
Cop? If so, check it out with bluejeansntshirt some night.
I wish I wudda thought of doing this back in the day … on second thought, I never did well standing in front of the chief’s desk explaining
Durned crickets… 8-(
May the Holy Mother watch out for each and everyone of you in this coming year. Goodnight.
So I’m guessing one was French. What was the other?
Um, well, there’s always the postpartum fantasy world.
Suz, that’s a retiree doing volunteer work, he rocks…!
Suzanne
What geography? May I assume LaCA from the Joe Friday ref?
i had a really good christmas. don’t war on it NOW!
hiya y’all!!!!!
(laughing) I usually just refer those who ask to this but, being a holiday and all, San Francisco Bay Area, on the east side of the bay.
i am baby-sitting for 2 hours. does that count?
Mele Kalikimaka, Missie, was Santa bountiful…? ;-)
yep!
at your house too?
Not bad, yet, had a little more excitement than anticipated…
Evening everyone! Great links Eli, especially the RuPaul. It’s barely 9 at my house and everyone else has been zonked out for almost an hour. I’ve almost cleared a path through the extra stuff.
hi madmommy!
were the mad kiddies cute in their christmas jammies? did they like their presents?
Thanks, mm. It’s pretty much the same here. Everyone but my youngest sister and the dog is completely zonked out.
Click on my “f” to see the Christmas jammies. Yes, those are crawfish and christmas lights printed on them. The big kid did not fully appreciate the significance of the Wii he got until all his adult relatives tried to con it away from him. Then we set it up and he played with it. It is teh kewl.
That is teh Kewl, MM! Merry Christmas!
they are super cute!
Hey Eli and folks, Merry Christmas. For Christmas last year Disney/ABC radio gave me a cease and desist notice because I told the the Advertisers what they were paying for on KSFO radio. A lot has happened since that.
For those who helped me I’m insanely grateful. The Fire Pups, along with the Atriots, Kos folks and all the 5th tier bloggers out there who helped cost hate radio 28 advertiers and 1/2 million in revenue won’t forget when they mess with a lefty blogger you mess with all of us.
LLAP,
Spocko
How’s your son feeling?
It’s really interesting that the other 3 tigers never left the cage. Well, in the end, that makes them the smart ones, in a way. They’re still alive.
Heh, righteous indignation works… *g*
The shadowy and mysterious Codename V. reports that the Wii is the most awesome thing since the invention of awesome.
My wife says he’s resting and might be released tonite… 8-)
Don’t know what that was all about, but it sounds like our system worked, for which I say hoorah.
Merry C****mas, spocko! Those were some fun times. They made complete high-profile asses of themselves, and it didn’t buy them squat.
happy you got a great result spocko ;o)- now may we all have success in the coming new year!
For someone who remembers getting an Atari and thinking it was the bee’s knee’s, I can confidently say the Wii is a step up. Actually tried to explain “Pong” and what it looked like to the kid, he looked at me the way he does when he’s sure I am BSing him.
CT-glad to hear it, it’s no fun to spend Christmas in the hospital.
You could show him this.
Mahalo, MM, I’m pissed at myself for allowing myself to be duped into halting 1800 mg’s of anti-seizure meds to be suddenly halted…
It might work. It’s just so bizarre to realize he has no concept of life before CDs, PCs, teensy cell phones and super realistic video games.
They’re so spoiled in this day and age, where’s the imaginative side…? I wonder…?
Wow-I know zilch about that sort of medication, but it would seem to be a better idea to taper off then go cold turkey. The poor kid! His doc said to do that?
A stick was a mighty effective weapon…
I like the super-realistic graphics, but I would be much happier if most video games required, say, two buttons. Four, tops.
I kinda suck at them, needless to say.
You probably wouldn’t wonder if you could see the post-apocalyptic robots he builds out of legos and the mosaic picture he made out of pieces of Christmas wrapping paper and Elmer’s glue. This particular kid’s imagination is working in overdrive.
In my day, we didn’t have water. We had to smash together our own hydrogen and oxygen atoms.
One word: Legos.
My very same thoughts… I blame myself as much… 8-(
lmao!!!
Legos and k’nex are fun. We still have some :)
Mmm… Legos…
Does anyone remember Capsela?
in my youth we were lucky if we got an orange for xmas….kids today – rotten including mine and their kids…:o(
Lordy those are funny! It was years before we figured out my dad’s tale of woe from childhood was bogus. Walking uphill to school, in the snow, barefoot, both ways, isn’t likely to happen in Gulfport Mississippi.
That’s on The Kid’s list for next year already. And he hasn’t even see Star Wars yet.
One hint for any Lego parents, grandparents, favorite aunts/uncles, etc.: get a big flat sheet, spread it out on the floor, and THEN dump out the box. It makes cleaning up sooooo much easier, and you never again have to dump out the contents of a vacuum cleaner bag looking for that one, special, missing Lego.
The big kid asked for that! I told him no. I had no idea there were so many pieces!
War on Christmas or no war on Christmas.
THIS
Can Not Be Stopped
Hell, that’s on *my* list for next year. Or the Death Star.
Uh-oh, Like Father like Son, my wife just gave me an update, he’s blaming himself for a ruined Xmas… Dang, a chip of the old block… *g*
That works great unless there is a younger sibling who chooses to drive his giant new dump truck right through the pile of legos. Personally, I rarely vacuum them up, I prefer finding them with my bare feet in the dark. It works every time.
707!
And if you step firmly enough, you can pick them up without even bending over.
True, it works… Gosh darn it…

Nice eCAHN! I remember a few away from my family… *g*
At least, Liheap has been enacted for the least…

Guess I gave a donation. Guess it was worth it. Merry Chirstmas to all.
Please, whatever isn’t nailed down… Hey, the copper wire is worth a pretty penny, too…
iz everybody sleeping?
that video’s making me cry….
It was interesting last night, my son was utilizing Jane’s Norad sighting to track Santa, needless to say, Santa had to wake mighty early this morn… *g*
All Greenwalds rock.
i am wide awake and ready for late night!
no. hi suzanne. what were you and kirk murphy referring to last night about good news coming from italy? by the time i read the thread, i couldn’t find references anywhere.
has santa been good to all the pups? :o) cuz as you all know – we have been very good puppies this year….oh yeahhhhhh

the bride to be got me a new weather station, and this one measures rainfall for me. woohoo! baby girl’s package has not arrived here yet (which is ok since mine to her has not arrived there yet)
Better late than never? *g*
Dang, there’s that half-full cup scenario, again… ;-)
Pitiful…can’t even stay awake till Late Night. Good night all!

g’nite madmommy
Mele Kalikimaka, MM!
nite mm
I just get here, and the herd is thinning…
Too.Much.Turkey.
How was everyone’s holiday?
night madmommy.
hi newtonuser!
Could be better, Newton, and I only served ham… *g*
Wait, wait,
I’m here finally! Great Christmas in lovely Chadds Ford, PA.
Chris
Driveby ‘Merry Christmas’ and other appropriate greetings. Thanks for letting this ex-lurker find a comfortable place to come to just about every day. Happy New Year, too, let us hope.
hey newton
i had lamb and ham so no tryptophan overdose here
Evenin’ all — hope everyone’s holiday was great :-)
Newt, I know what you mean. I’m calling it “food coma” over here.
Cassie! That’s one funny gato on your Christmas post!
waving to chris e, btfall and LL
hi christine and behindthefall! merry merry christmas night!
thanks :)
I get the feeling I need to read some earlier posts. Sorry your day wasn’t prim, dude. Hope it gets better.
i had turkey and yet i’m wide-awake and kitchen waiting to be cleaned….sighhhhh where’s the maid i so desperately need?oh yeah – i wished for impeachment instead of a maid – d’ohhhh
I haven’t had a stash in so long, I don’t even remember what it was like.
for the holidays, i’ve opened up my stash to all who wish to take a look
Hiya All,
We had family, friends and famous people from New York join us. My sister-in-law is a great photographer, and has all these wonderful contacts in big cities. Ham and turkey, all all the fixings. AND I will say, my English fruitcake that I’ve bathed in whiskey since early November that was fab.
Oh no CT, I hope your son will be ok…and that 911 was able to help you all.
thanks for the link suzanne. yes, that is good news.
their side don’t seem to be playing by the same rules.
awhile back when i was very active in the sierra club there was some combined things we were doing with the hunters for preservation of public lands. i loved it – environmentalists with guns – just the ticket.
Whoa, impressive stash there Suz!
what’s that old saying about cops always having the good stuff?
OH, CT!
All the best from this house to yours.
CT I hope your son gets better tonight.
True! ;-)
I’ll be right over.
Mahalo, Newt and all! I truly appreciate the Lake… It is a unique and exceptional source… *g*
are we gonna have a late night today?
There are a lot of awesome Dylan vids on youtube from some concert in 1976, where he and all his bandmates are wearing headscarves. Any idea what that was?
Ticket is to link with the others where it is possible. Even though one of my residences is in NYC, I don’t care about safety. I am, being a white, middle aged (actually older) woman, not in danger. So I chat up hunters at my country place. Conversion seems to work.
CT, that happened to me as a young adult.
Needless to say, I’ve never let another doc get away with suggesting an abrupt halt to that kind of meds.
yeap, holiday schedule today
Thank you, Margot! This is not gonna be forgotten…
I have been wishing/working for peace since 1968…whilst behind the scenes my government has been raising hell all over the world and in space above. As you may imagine I am pretty pissed off.
Peace now not celebrating anything until this occupation is over. Next Christmas will be the same. I can’t get all warm about things when murder and mayhem is commited by my governmentr on my behalf.
A friend is selling her house to travel in the USA it isn’t as safe for Americans to travel abroad as it once was anf it is twicw the price.
I really can’t apologise as I do not feel warm and fuzzy. And I am not interested in spending eternity in a choir.
I have a special forces friend (nam)who told me we need regular wars to have seasoned troops. Eternal War.
((( CT, CT’s son and family )))
Hiya Cassie,
Glad to hear Christmas was good. Thinking of you and Ms. Tex.
Chrisine
((((peace for bigbrother))))
His worry was about a rash he had developed, an odd side effect of Trileptal is a lethal virus, hence, my subsequent agreement, yet, I expressed my concern for the adverse impact from an abrupt halt…
(((Thanks and peace to all whatever they believe)))
Amen!
I’m sitting here, wearing my new plaid jammies (with pockets), nibbling on my christmas ham (courtesy of my brother) and truffles from the chocolate hippies, listening to KPIG playing all kinda wacky Christmas tunes commercial free, and listening to Token snore after he had his share of ham and lamb tonight.
The feeling I am enjoying most tonight is the feeling of progress having been made this past year. We’ve done lots of good this year pups, and I’m dayam proud of you.
As a peace officer, when you saw the rampant looting of Iraq after the invasion. could you justify that. This was planned mayhem. I cannot find any justification for our military presence in Iraq. We removed Hussein because among other things he was an evil dictator that tortured people in his dungeaons to maintain his dictatorship. He was a mass murdrer, which Bush says justifies our mass murder of the Iraqi population. This is Christian love Texas style. Yahoo. Of course all this justifies our secrert torture sites world wide and use of techniques that violates the geneva convention and puts any of our troops that are captured at risk of the same and worse. This is a path down which no nation should go.
w i d e w i d e grinnnnnnnnnnn
just shows how hypocritical those “compassionate cons” are…
must clean kitchen nowwwww…no one has come forth sob sob
Christmas greetings, everyone…Margot, CT, eCAHN, suzanne, newton, Cassie, LL, greenwarrior, bigbrother, Christine…it’s snowing in Nebraska, where this SoCal girl is visiting. Beautiful flakes, big and wet and sticky, looking forward to sledding tomorrow with my sprout.
Is it video time yet?? Hoping the waiting will be over in 2008.
Peace to you all.
For “Come all ye faithful”, it must be Deanna Durbin.
