Shout Cast l Launch Music l Live-Radio Net l Christmas By Song O Come All Ye Faithful (Adeste Fideles) This section takes an individual Christmas song and then provides you with as many different artists performing it for you to enjoy. We will not be playing all the artists and versions that we have. We don't have the space, but we feel you'll get enough variations to enjoy yourself. Background Information: The Englishman, John Francis Wade, wrote both the words and the music, Adeste Fideles. The Musical score was first published in 1782 in Samuel Webbe's An Essay on the Church Plain Chant in 1782. John Francis Wade first included it in his own 1751 publication of Cantus Diversi. The lyrics were first published in 1760.
If you hear someone using tissues, it's MoJo. This song has watery effects. To our British and Aussie allies, MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Shout Cast l Launch Music l Live-Radio Net l Christmas By Song Joy To The World
Background Info: Joy to the World
The words and lyrics of the old Christmas carol 'Joy to the World' were written in 1719 by Isaac Watts (1674-1748). The father of John Watts was a Non-conformist and so extreme were his views that he was imprisoned twice. His father's influence over Isaac was demonstrated when he choose to attend Nonconformist Academy at Stoke Newington in preference to a University. Watts was ordained as a Pastor of an Independent congregation. He wrote many hymns and Carols and was awarded a Doctor of Divinity degree by the the University of Edinburgh in 1728. The music to the carol is by George Frederick Handel (1685-1759). MoJo Thought:
Have you ever noticed while reading articles that when referring to GOD that many folks decide to write it *G-D*? What is that? Is it supposed to mean that it is less potent and offensive by keeping the *o* from appearing? My suggestion to these folks isn't to use God at all. If you can't add the *o*, don't write it. This is true for those of you that believe or don't.

Just as we left the house in a rush to get to the trees, there were a few winter birds feeding on the bread crumbs that Ms.B left for them this morning that we startled into flight. The snow muffled our footsteps so just as we reached the first grove of trees, you saw, out of the corner of your eye, the brush of a fox, as he scurried to get hidden before we could spy him. There were bird prints on the snow....and even prints from a raccoon who was looking for something to eat but not finding anything in the deep snow. The silence of the woods is overwhelming...we can almost hear the snow as it hits the ground. And so cold...so cold.....

> Too many Americans see rugby as a violent sport.
I once read a definition in the Devil's Dictionary that went something like this: "Soccer is a Gentleman's game played by Ruffians; Rugby is a Ruffian's game played by Gentlemen."
It is God's Literal Truth! You will get more violence in your average game of baseball than you will in your average Rugby match. Sure, you may get hurt playing Rugby, but it won't be because of cheating or dirty play.
> I'm saddened to see them leave and play for the All Blacks.
Don't be! They are laughing all the way to the bank! They have the best of both worlds, you see:
Auckland is the largest Polynesian city in the world, and it tends to attract people from all over the South Pacific. Many of them (Samoans, Tongans) come here to work, make a good living, send money home, and eventually retire back to their own wee islands, rich as kings.
There's not alot wrong with that strategy: put away some money, work hard for a few years, then retire to a South Pacific tropical paradise like Samoa or Tonga or Nieue...
...hell, I'd do it in a minute if I could!

I LOVE this story!
I'll add to it:
Just then, Ms.B puts a finger to her lips to tell the girls to be quiet..
then points towards an open field..
There in his magnifcence, is a white tail buck...
Breath coming form his nostrils in white plumes..
He catches their scent..
and bounds away....
Ms.B
