Show #36: Holiday Special '05

Happy Holidays to one and all whether you celebrate the solstice, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or whatever it is that you may celebrate at the end of the year. For this week, I've concocted a show that's a mish-mash of stuff relating to the season and the holidays. Interspersed with the music are a few miscellaneous related bits - poems, Xmas greetings, etc.

I hope you enjoy!
