If you listen to the second demo version, that word isn’t there. A few lines of lyrics are different, in fact. Also, Cait O’Riordian is the duet singer instead of Kristy MacColl on this version. It obviously isn’t a finished product, but I think it has it’s charms, and it’s an interesting look into the process of…

I’m just gonna put away all sharp objects, and leave this here.

Netflix knows when you are sleeping, it knows when you’re awake. It knows if the movies you watch are bad or good, for goodness sake......Netflix IS Santa Clause

If they want to practice their swing and sledge technique, I have lots of firewood that needs split. Sledge and wedge 4-ever!

Oh, I first read that as “Satellite repair techs are the real heroes”. As a satellite installer and repair tech, I was surprised and happy to see our trade get recognized, then I noticed my mistake.

The eeriest, most awesome recording of “The Little Drummer Bay” is by Marlene Dietrich, sung in German. It’s on YouTube.

Trying to pick a Zappa album to introduce his music to somebody is sort of like trying to pick a Marx Bros movie to introduce their comedy to somebody. There are fantastic Marx Bros routines.

This could get interesting. The above post was made with my AVC legacy linked account, and this one is being made with my discus linked account, yet it’s both me. You can’t be sure who you are replying to, or whether I’ll remember to check both accounts to see all replies. Hijinks may now ensue!

CGI Santa is cheaper anyway.
