My favorite Xmas song is "Granny Got Run Over by a Reindeer." Enoch Powell's favorite was "I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas", for reasons which I trust the pious will not guess.
They still make those things????? I remember when we were force fed those things to benefit Children's Hospital! I think the reasoning was to get us sick enough to be admitted there!
Yep, I was under the impression that they were made up from the conversation that you and Alexandr were having, but it turns out they exist in the South.
Why is My Favorite Things a "Christmas Song?" I've never seen The Sound of Music.
Maybe because it was on the Barbara Streisand Christmas Album?
How does ASimpleSinner know this? His mother has the classic all-Jewish Christmas album collection with Barry Manilow, Neil Diamond and Bab's Christmas offerings. These records - first as LPs then as CDs now as MP3s - are played annually in the homestead during the decorating day. 'Atsa my childhood!
The irony of it is not lost on me. Most especially when hearing Neil's O Holy Night or Stresisand's Ave Maria.
I always thought it to be a mythical fruit that was loved about as much as the infamous fruitcake. So Farkleberries are real?
