X-Mass
December 16, 2007 | Filed Under Main |
Nine days before Christmas. Last night I played with the controller on my set of outdoor lights. I had our house looking like a give-away sale at a used car lot! So cool that they make these things for children of all ages…
Today I’m cleaning and re-arranging furniture in preparation for the tree. Serenading me during this arduous task are some of my friend Tom’s annual Christmas CDs. These are true classics – not only of engineering, but of creative selection and juxtaposition. Tom is a student of the Christmas album. Nay – not a student. A full-fledged PHD in the field! Nowhere else can you hear Charlie Musselwhite’s “Silent Night”, Spinal Tap’s “We Three Kings” and the Monkees singing “Riu Chiu” (latin?).
Next to this level of depth and psychosis, I am merely a grasshopper…
