Don't forget - Naked spin-the-dreidel games.

Hang in there - It's the Sixth Day of Hanukkah, there are just a few more days to go

At this point you may want to skip the unnecessary calories and just drink the oil - but not too much. Mussolini used to use this as a torture for his political enemies.



Another reason Hanukkah feels better than Christmas - Christmas isn’t the only holiday who has ugly sweaters! Hanukkah has some pretty tacky sweaters to compete with

Remember, so far there has been no barking dog version of I had a Little Dreidel. You might begin thinking about where you are going to store your Hanukkah decorations? (I don't mean to insinuate that you aren't normally observant. Perhaps you proudly display your heirloom menorah in your living room. I can't be everywhere.)


Our second holiday theme today - sometimes TV is your only friend, so why not have a marathon of Christmas themed episodes.

Mister Magoo’s Christmas Carol –



There is a popular rumor that the song People was written for — and rejected by — this project. It’s not true. The composer Jule Styne and lyricist Bob Merrill were working on the song for the Broadway musical Funny Girl at the same time that they were writing this score. The producers of this project heard them playing it, and were thrilled, until they learned that it wasn’t for them. Obviously, it went on to become a hit for the star of Funny Girl, Barbra Streisand.


Christmas and the Hard Luck Kid II  Mary Tyler Moore -



James Brooks, who wrote this episode, also wrote Christmas and the Hard Luck Kid, an episode of That Girl. There is no apparent connection between the two, other than Brooks.
