Merry Christmas, ATiM

This is Christmas!

So, Mark, does your family do what Elena Kagan does (or at least claimed she does in her confirmation hearings) and get Chinese food on Christmas day?  I think “Seinfeld” was where I heard that first.  And there’s always “A Christmas Story” and the introduction to Chinese turkey:

For some reason I can’t find either of these whole cartoons on youtube, but here’s the part that’s the core of the Charlie Brown special,

and here’s my very favorite song of the season

Don’t ask me why, but that song just struck me as wonderful when I was a little kid.  My parents tell me that I would get up and dance around to it every year when we watched the special on TV–maybe it’s that amazing bass voice.  But it’s also hard to top Nat King Cole:

At any rate, I hope that this holiday season has been a joyous, peaceful, and love-filled one for all of you.  And may 2013 be even better!
