Twisted Sister: “I’ll be Home for Christmas”
I’m not a heavy metal fan, but I thought the readers just might be due for a break from the ordinary seasonal fare. I mean, how many times can you hear Karen Carpenter or Perry Como … over and over … Continue reading
Regarding Christmas
I’m so-o-o-o confused! I mean, on the one hand, I’m getting emails warning against merchants who insist on saying “winter holiday” rather than “Christmas.” And then there are the educators who want the kids to celebrate the winter solstice rather … Continue reading
