The Fourth Sunday Of Advent

Today is the fourth Sunday of Advent and it’s also Christmas Eve. It’s been a time of waiting for the Christ child to come. Christmas is almost here.

Happy Festivus, For The Rest Of Us

Today people all over have celebrated Festivus. It’s a secular holiday celebrated on December 23 as an alternative to the pressures and commercialism of the Christmas season. Mass awareness came from it being featured in the American situational comedy “Seinfeld”. The rules for celebrating are easy and practical. To all celebrating may you have a great time of community and care.

Guardians Of The Galaxy Holiday Special Is Indeed Special

This is the best holiday special to come out in years. At this point, I have seen it 15 times maybe. Guardians of The Galaxy never disappoints. This team has helped me through some things in a small measure over the years. I can watch this during the summer, fall, or spring. Drax and Mantis make this extra special. Also there’s Kevin Bacon and everything is better with Bacon.
