It probably won't be finished until Christmas '08, but at least we'll have a new song.<BR/><BR/>BTW, has anyone heard "Christmas Shoes," the country song about a little boy who doesn't have enough money to buy a pair of fancy shoes for his mother, which he needs to do because she is at home DYING ON CHRISTMAS EVE and he wants her to "...look beautiful when she meets Jesus tonight."? I laughed, I cried. I wouldn't want to write a song like that, in case you're wondering.Larry Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13425250800667058263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6881724.post-60608208432607686962007-12-06T17:17:00.000-05:002007-12-06T17:17:00.000-05:00Larry: Glad you enjoy it as much as I do.

Seems like these days it's hard to do sincerity a la "Chestnuts roasting on an open fire" and "May your days be merry and bright." Which is, I think, a bit of a tragedy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6881724.post-74611738372361636592007-12-06T06:56:00.000-05:002007-12-06T06:56:00.000-05:00I don't have time to look at the video just now, b...I don't have time to look at the video just now, but I'm guessing this song would be the perfect accompaniment to the Cavalcade of Bad Nativities.

It's great to have these important compositions explicated for me like that. Who knew you needed sunglasses in heaven? Makes sense, though: proximity to the sun, presence of The Almighty, etc. I wonder if The Blessed Virgin listens to that station? If so, she knows now...Larry Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13425250800667058263noreply@blogger.com
