If The Archies Christmas Album is in the station, that would be appreciated sometime in the next 6 hours. If not, that's OK too. I've never heard it but I'm sure Jughead is laying down a steady beat throughout. | |

Last night we watched Chaplin's "The Great Dictator" for a strange holiday custom. I'd seen it long ago and had not recalled the riveting speech CC gives to end the film.

WFMU has been what is the word?... Intrepid! with their Christmas theme over the past week! I am about ready to complain to the Station Manager. (or is the station manger Santa Clause?????????) | |

@Joe WFMU is simply being WFMU, that's why I love it and I am sure most of the people listening would agree. | |

Great mega-show Joe, Christmas Greetings to everyone! It's been a great one for me so far - I spotted a Mexican tortilleria around the corner from Katie's mom's house in Bradenton FL open today, Christmas Day - a Christmas miracle! Fresh home-made Christmas tacos... Enough to make a secular Jew like me wonder if there really is a Santa after all... | |
