December 21, 2012 Leading up to Christmas, I will share a video each day featuring some of my favorite Christmas songs. I'll start with my favorite Christmas song of all.
Last year the 56,000 light Christmas display which adorned Jan Stewart's Fountain Valley, California home went viral, with a YouTube video of the lights in action garnering close to 500,000 views.
Sorry kids. It appears as if your presents are on back order this year because Santa Claus isn't coming to town in 2012. He's too busy prepping for the upcoming (and supposed) apocalypse, according to last night's episode of 'Conan.'
Christmas is almost upon us, but that doesn’t mean you still can’t have some fun with your holiday decorations. Maybe you’re the kind of person who waits until the last minute to set up your tree, or perhaps you’ve noticed some bare spots on the limbs just crying out for a few more ornaments. Or maybe you need a last minute activity to keep the kids busy while they wait for the impending arrival of Santa Claus. Nothing is more maddening for a child than the last few days leading up to Christmas, before all of their holiday loot arrives.
December 21, 2012 I know I may get a little bit of flack, but I'm just being honest. I thought the opening of the CMA Country Christmas last night was a little weird. A very pregnant Jennifer Nettles opened the show with "Naughty Would Be Nice For Christmas."
December 21, 2012 A lot of you will be attending your company's Christmas party this year. This can be a great time to socialize with your co-workers outside of the office and spread some holiday cheer. It can also be a time to totally screw up your job and what people think of you. Here's a quick one sheet that will help you get through the gathering without making a fool of yourself.
Aww man! We've been sucked in again. It's another edition of animals in costumes, but we swear it's way worth your time. Why? Well, because there are few things more adorable than dressing up our dogs and cats in holiday garb and showing them off on the Web. We're positive they love it! (Maybe.)
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas for Lee Brice. The 'Hard to Love' hitmaker reveals that he wants to record a Christmas album, but with a twist -- instead of yet another in the endless parade of half-baked 'White Christmas' renditions already out there, the singer-songwriter would like to make a holiday album that includes a lot of new material.
December 19, 2012 The big day is approaching, but Santa and Rudolph are going to take a little time out for FUN! It might be the last time you get to tell Santa what you want him to bring you for Christmas!
December 19, 2012 A Tom and Jerry is a traditional Christmastime cocktail that a British journalist came up with in the 1820s. It is most commonly seen in Wisconsin and Minnesota and uses eggnog with brandy and rum added, it can be served hot (my choice), or cold.
This past Saturday, SantaCon took over New York City. For all of you unfamiliar with this classic American holiday, it's an entire day dedicated to dressing up like Santa Claus and getting a little crazy frolicking around with fellow Saint Nick look-a-likes. It's sort of like a massive Christmas flash mob that makes you feel like you're in a strange alternate universe, but it's actually totally awesome.
December 18, 2012 Christmas has been the background for many great films. My personal favorite: National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. Other great ones are Elf, Miracle on 34th Street, a Christmas Story, A Christmas Carol (many versions), Home Alone, and more. For this poll, we'll stick to live action Christmas movies. Take the poll and vote for your favorite!
