Well, the 12 Days of Christmas got sidetracked by some great company, the plague they brought with them, and a busy, busy, busy week at work. No big deal, the rest can wait for next Christmas :)

You just gotta love a Christmas carol sung by a hockey player. It's a wonder Gretzky never released an album! "The Sweater" is so famous here, we have a verse of it on our five dollar bill. And every sentence this time of year should end with "A beer, in a tree"!!

I actually like the Pogues, and like that song, but "Christmas-y", it's not. As for the John Denver song, I've got nothing. (and as an aside, does Shane MacGowan win the prize for worst. teeth. ever?)
