Forget everything you think you know about torture. Waterboarding? Ha! Child's play. If you want to the world's most heinous terrorists to give it up, lock them in a building with Christmas music blaring all damn day. If we could figure out how to pipe Jose Feliciano singing Feliz Navidad into Bin Laden's cave, he would crawl on hands and kness to turn himself in. It has only been 1 day and I'm already on my last nerve. Since I like to spread the pain around, here is a dose of my least favorite Christmas atrocity. Things in this blog represented to be fact, may or may not actually be true. The writer is frequently wrong, sometimes just full of it, but always judgmental and cranky

They were playing Christmas music at my gym BEFORE Thanksgiving. Not a good sign I said to myself.

When I was growing up, my mother adored Christmas music. Waterboarding had nothin' on her.

Somehow I still like Johnny Mathis even though I heard his Christmas album 10x a day.

I love Xmas music, though one must be discriminating. No Jose Feliciano.

I am giggling uncontrollably. I agree with you 100% - and Little Drummer Boy is the WORST, absolutely the WORST.

You crack me up, Merle.

I haven't been indoors anywhere to hear any yet... but I hate that Giddy Up Giddy up, let's Go (kill ourselves) Xmas song... and the Little Drummer Boy ... and a few others. I'm putting off shopping until the last possible minute. My local food market seems to have The Beatles on an endless loop
so that's Okay.

If I were Jose Feliciano I would be incredibly depressed that my entire career had been overshadowed by a single, repetitious, mediocre holiday ditty.

Don't forget the ditty that turns my heart black in my chest, "Santa, Baby."

Although I'm with you on the rum pum pums all the way.

The entire world is divided into two camps - those who love Christmas music and those who hate it. Everyone has an opinion about this one. I love it....mostly.

As mentioned before, our company feeds music and they started 3 weeks ago ; (

Thanks goodness for the ipod and the sound of the Kirtas to keep it all out.

Hope all is well with you and yours!

Cheers!

At my house, we call "Santa, Baby" The Date Rape song.

The Little Drummer Boy has nothing on the Christmas shoes kid.
