    The only two we have received this year so far have been from Jewish friends. Not holiday cards, Christmas cards. I found this funny.

    That's because Christians are too cheap to spring for Christmas cards.

    That's a good list. Nice twist with Deano in White Christmas.

    Check out Last Christmas by The Cocktail Slippers on youtube. They rock it (I hate the Wham version).

    Ooh, that is good. It'll be on next year's CD. I also will have Armstrong's "Zat You, Santa Claus?" on next year's. I would've included it this year, but it was on the Christmas 2008 disc and I'd already had enough repeats on this year's edition.

    Not bad, but you have to find a spot for Elvis and "Blue Christmas" somewhere.
