Chapter 269: Christmas Lists...
Along with my favorite holiday accoutrement (pictured above, MiniBing moves and sings three songs holiday tunes) I wanted to share some of my other favorite Christmas songs, movies, and videos so I thought I'd make a couple of lists I can continue to update as the season rolls along. I'm not sure why, but the Christmas spirit hit me early this year and hasn't let go. So here's a little something to share...
Top 10 Christmas Shows (television or movie)
10. A Christmas Story
9. A Muppet Family Christmas
8. Love Actually
7. Scrooged
6. National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
5. The Muppet Christmas Carol
4. A Charlie Brown Christmas

2. Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas
1. White Christmas
Honorable Mentions: All stop animation clay Christmas specials (including the California Raisins), Pee Wee's Christmas Special, The Polar Express (I loved the book, still do) and Home Alone.
Also, I'm putting together our 2007 Non-Denominational, Non-Holiday, Winter Album as a gift for the office. Everyone is contributing a track and then I'm rounding it out with favorites. I'll put a track listing up later on...
