[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

The wildfire in Israel and its toll was very sad. I'm glad some rain has arrived.

Wait, I'm confused, I thought the movie "Holiday Inn" was the same movie as "White Christmas", it's just that the song is so popular that people got mixed up. Huh. Turns out, I was mixed up. Well, in that case, I'm glad to have been straightened out.

"Holiday Inn" came first (1942). "White Christmas" was introduced in that film, which starred Bing Crosby & Fred Astaire. A decade later they wanted to get them together again for a kind of a sequel. Astaire was initially in it but there were contract or scheduling issues so they signed Danny Kaye instead. "White Christmas" the film came out in 1954. While it has a different story and different characters than "Holiday Inn", it's a sort of sequel because it's still all Irving Berlin songs, including "White Christmas" and it meant to be a reunion of Crosby & Astaire.

Compassionately intolerant

White Christmas is my OTHM. I look forward to it with giddy anticipation.

“Not dead yet!”

So glad they got the fire in Israel under control but so saddened by all the losses.

Love Actually is my OTHM with When Harry Met Sally and Meet Me in St. Louis as my backups.

I may have slightly skewed holiday viewing tastes.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

The Shop Around The Corner is my holiday movie, with Meet Me in St. Louis a close second.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

Christmas in Connecticut, Holiday Inn, Desk Set, and, uh, Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol.

Also, for some reason, lots of ballet. Like, I get totally into the Battle of the Nutcrackers on Ovation TV.

Love Actually for me, too!

“Not dead yet!”

Speaking of movies, Nate saw his first Monty Python (Holy Grail) at a friend's house yesterday and thought it brilliant and hysterical. Came home full of accusatory glares that we hadn't enriched his life yet.

Then dissolved into giggles as we started quoting lines at him.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Love, Actually, Elf, and The Nightmare Before Christmas.
