Merry Christmas

Happy Hanukkah

Nice Nearly Kwanzaa

Festive Weekend



In honor of the holidays, here's a favorite illustration from back in the days when Malcolm McDowell wore a bottle cap on his head, and secretly pulled Santa's strings, thanks to Santa's coke addiction (Santa got hooked back when Coca Cola used to contain real cocaine).

Anyway, I just wanted to wish everyone much happiness today.  I think you're all pretty swell, and I hope that Santa (or Nyarlathotep, or whoever) brought you some great loot.  Feel free to tell us about your favorite gifts (or worst gifts), or to share with us some joyful moments, or to begin the traditional Airing of Grievances.

Oh, and remember that voting is still open in the Ann v. Dennis v. Rush v. Peggy v. Michelle contest. 

P.S.  I was just watching the MST "Santa Claus" ep -- Santa's spying operation ("This is Santa’s magic Observatory. What wonderful instruments! The Ear-scope! The TeleTalker, that knows everything! The Cosmic Telescope! The Master Eye! Nothing that happens on Earth is unknown to Santa Claus!"), especially his giant ear-fan in space which can hear you even if you're in a cave or behind a million mountains, certainly seemly timely these days.  

Apparently you can buy a copy of the un-MSTed version from Westlake Entertainment for only $9.98.  I suspect that the copy on the box ("Pitch is on the loose.  Can Christmas be saved?") was the inspiration for Bill O'Reilly's War on Christmas campaign.
