Happy memories:
In 1969, the Frosty the Snowman holiday special debuted, and has since graced millions of television screens. The special can still be seen several times a year today.
Original release December 7, 1969
Inspiring!
There must have been some magic
In that yarmulke they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around.
Oh, Frosty the Golem
Was alive as he could be
And the children say he could laugh and play
Just the same as you and me
Talk about Parable Town:His successful pieces surrounding the holidays didn't stop at Frosty. Bass also produced the 1970 TV movie Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town...
It all starts with a bunch of questions "Why?":
Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town - The Full Movie
Worth it for even the first 8 min. From the letter:
He will be exceptional if only given the love he needs...
He came with an ID necklace that only said, "CLAUS". Claus [קלאוס] = 197.
"Well, that strange wind blew the little sleigh right up to the Mountain of the Whispering Winds.."
At the beginning, Fred Esther er A-stair the mailman said,
"So you want to know all about Santa, eh? The best place to start is at the very beginning..."
Makes sense. The account of the first day of Creation is Genesis 1:1-5, which is 197... letters.
You never will get where you're going
If you never get up on your feet
Come on, there's a good tail wind blowin'
A fast walking man is hard to beat.
Put One Foot in Front of the Other
Real time, since Christmas 1970:
Toys! Refrigerator magnets. Those letters just keep on coming. Don't miss the excellent permutation of "Claus":
Sol 101 [סול ק"א] 🌞
Let there be light.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Bass passed away Tuesday, Oct. 25, 2022 at the age of 87.
Did you know that the voice actors for the Snow Miser and Heat Miser were both Jewish?
Makes perfect sense. They calmed right down and spoke with one voice when saying, "Yes, Mother dear."
If I want to change the reflection
I see in the mirror each morn'
(Oh, you DO?)
You mean that it's just my election?
(Just that!)
To vote for a chance to be reborn?
Whoo hoo!
Put One Foot in Front of the Other - Santa Claus is Coming to Town
Timing. The Moon and the Sun will appear, disappear, and appear again (this really is the image on the page):
An Eclipse Never Comes Alone!

Usually, there are two eclipses in a row, but other times, there are three during the same eclipse season.
All eclipses 1900 - 2199
This is the second eclipse this season.

Meaning of the name Rebekah
BDB Theological Dictionary does not translate Rebekah. Both Jones' Dictionary of Old Testament Proper Names and the NOBSE Study Bible Name List render the name: A Rope With A Noose. Jones' Dictionary of Old Testament Proper Names quotes Gesenius who suggests that this name denotes a woman who ensnares a man with her beauty. But although the Biblical occurrence of this name has to do with much, not with the snaring of a man by beauty. The name denotes merely a tying up of cattle, both for their own protection, the establishment of their home and to keep them from wandering off. Within this name lies the notion that individuals are placed together by something higher or smarter than they.
The name Rebekah literally means Tied Up but more specific (and more friendly) is Secured.

Genesis 1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
Genesis 37
9. And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brothers, and said, Behold, I have again dreamed a dream; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me:
10. And he told it to his father, and to his brothers; and his father rebuked him, and said to him, What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall I and your mother and your brothers indeed come to bow down ourselves to you to the earth:
11. And his brothers envied him; but his father kept the matter in mind:
It was a question that had been in search of an answer. [3:39]
Joseph -- world famous for orchestrating a big family reunion after 22 years. Now if he could do the 'impossible' even without his Technicolor Dreamcoat...
..I'd place a big bet on his being able to join the heavens and the earth, even or especially in his sleep (eyes are the windows to the soul). What [מה] *is* on the horizon:
the heavens + the earth, joined together as one (ergo not a typo with the regular form of the letter mem):

Phinneous, you still hanging around, still with me? Great, because check out this deep dive:
I was merely looking for a clip of the Miser Brothers agreeing with their mother, when I happened upon this 7:35 min video montage of The miser brothers fighting.
Then at 4:14 it switched to a newer animation. Huh? The scene caught my eye because the characters' addresses where right on their doors. Snow Miser lived at 32, and Heat Miser at 101.
But of course, because when you add them together they come to 133 -- to Boston, home of the eponymous 2-stones-as-one Stone, embedded in the foundation as the head of the corner. Same place the upcoming Spirited Christmas movie was filmed last year.
At it turns out, that newer animation was from 2008. The plot involved a big family reunion and a scheme by their brother (the North Wind, no less) to keep them fighting and to put Santa out of commission. Fascinating.
... the one-hour special premiered on ABC Family on Saturday, December 13, 2008, during the network's annual The 25 Days of Christmas programming.
Not too deep of a dive because it only took a couple more minutes to track down the time. 8 p.m:

Which then led to the corresponding Chumash for the night of the 17th of Kislev, which is the month of dreams.
Yeah, there goes the God of Abraham again... always with a twinkle in His eye and a spring in His step. He always gets there first to put His sticky prints on everything, like a little kid.
Location: Shawmut, the place marking its little "neck" , the "Old Indian" word for checkmate, from Hodu to Cush as it were.
If people only knew what they were missing..
Just one more thing:
November 8th, 2022 is also the IDoR, marking 127 years since the discovery of x-rays.
Nobody gets out of Egypt without the bones of Joseph.
Home buyers are always told to look for properties with good bones, but what does that really mean? Real estate pros weigh in.1. A Solid Foundation...
