Merry Christmas, everybody! I had Christmas at home early this week because tomorrow we're heading off to the WILDS of OHIO for Christmas in Mom's Hometown.
THe best things I got for Christmas:
A SPINK! Framed and signed by the artist, just for me. :D
A new power cord for my laptop!!! That isn't made of electrical tape!!!!
A camping bed with built-in spreader bar! <-not exactly what in sounds like.
A bunch of new turtlenecks!
Socks!
Crayons!
A box of the original 64 Crayola crayons! Two boxes, actually, so when I use up one green-blue crayon I will have a replacement!
Books! (A Steve Canyon collection!!! Among others.)
...and an LP with "Snoopy vs. The Red Baron".
And on that note, it's time for the BIG FINAL BLOWOUT music post, because the Wilds of Ohio lacks easily accessible wireless internet; I'll be lucky if I get to see my Yuletide fic. And I missed the last two days, in getting ready for the trip and the presents.
Sunday was the Solstice, so have some Solstice carols:
Jethro Tull - Ring Out, Solstice Bells.mp3
The Dagon Tabernacle Choir - Carol Of The Old Ones.mp3
Leigh Ann Hussey - Wassail.mp3
Lee Welch - All Hayle To The Days.mp3
Monday was the 25 of Kislev, so, the only good Hannukah songs I have ever encountered:
Da Vinci's Notebooks - The Dreidel Song.mp3 - this is an A Capella cover. Even though it sounds like industrial metal.
Tom Lehrer - Hanukkah in Santa Monica.mp3 - Tom Lehrer again! Yay!
South Park - I'm A Jew - I despise South Park from a whole continuity of reasons, starting with the fact that I respect the cartooning art, and ending with the fact that I know actual small children, but I have to admit that a lot of their songs are good.
Jon Stewart & Stephen Colbert- Can I Interest You In Hanukkah.mp3 - this is the live version, which has audience reaction and some poorish sound quality - *but* it includes what happened when Jon and Stephen met under the mistletoe.
And finally, for today, a set of songs that I just couldn't leave you guys lacking in your lives.
Stan Freberg - Christmas Dragnet.mp3 - You will never think of scallions the same way again.
Mel Blanc - The Hat I Got For Christmas.mp3 - I am mildly ashamed of myself for liking this one, because the Mexican stereotype he uses is so terrible, but it would be funny even *without* that. And he got married to his brother!
Dr. Elmo - Uncle Johnny's Glass Eye.mp3 - The story of the most touching and beautiful Christmas miracle ever.
Stephen Colbert - Another Christmas Song.mp3 - yeah, this is maybe 1/5 of my collection of Christmas mp3s. But everybody needs another!
