Ok, I have a question for you guys:
How can anyone consider it "weird" to listen to Christmas albums that are actually, you know, about that Jesus person?
I was telling two of my friends, who are supposed to be Christians, about this new Christmas album I'm listening to, "Behold the Lamb of God", and how it might just be my favorite album this year. Just because it has a song that's the geneology of Jesus, and one about Passover, sort of, doesn't make it weird. Right?
Ach, influence, got to spell check. OB
Naval quotes eh? How 'bout "You may fire when ready Gridley"? OB
I took the jedis shopping this evening...just to pick out what they wanted to get Steve for Christmas. Joshua picked out a pushbroom and Matthew picked out an OSU tie. Hope Steve doesn't look in here, or else there goes the surprise! ;-)
I'm listening to An Irish Christmas as we type...lovely violin and whistle playing The First Noel.
Naval? I thought that was Bugs Bunny.
My favorite: Whoever said "Sighted sub, sank same". That's right up there with "Veni, vidi, vici" for short, sweet and to the point.
You're a looonie! ;~D
Just kidding.... of course it isn't!
Heh, I get tired of "Winter Wonderland" and even Mannheim Steamroller after a while. Singing something to remind me of the real reason for the whole shebang is nice.
Fire at targets of opportunity!
Good night All!
Sounds quite reasonable to me!
That's one thing I like about the station I tend to listen to on the way to work and back...they aren't at all shy about playing actual CHRISTmas songs. The other station I sometimes listen to doesn't play ANYTHING that hints at the real reason for the holiday...
Good job, Jedis! And 2J!
Good night, All.
Night Sam!
The mantle:
Whoa... nice!
I'm impressed!
What a beautiful place!
I haven't put up lights. Don't think I will manage it this year. Again.
*sigh*
I often wonder what my neighbors must think of me.
Oh it's GORGEOUS! It's just really pretty! And I've been there...so it's familiar!
So few of my neighbors have lights up. It's sad. Don't they feel Christmas-y?
It's different for people like you, who spend Christmas with the family. They'll have decked the halls, right?
My whole neighborhood has gone all out this year! Much moreso than in the past. A lot of run-down houses sold and people spiffed them up and now they're looking really nice. The neighborhood is really looking good!
