Christmas is less than two weeks away. Thirteen days in fact. On a lark, one Saturday night last December as Margaret, Joe, and I ate dinner, I started singing a silly, made it up on the fly Christmas song. Well, my topical take on a Christmas classic. My father-in-law, who in his late eighties still possesses the vestiges of the classic Italian tenor voice that was his calling card sixty years ago, laughed appropriately at the lyrics and did not recoil in horror at my inability to carry a tune.
It struck the three of us as being funny enough to preserve for posterity. We did. The other afternoon, towards the end of what had been a particularly long day at work, I remembered that I had the video Margaret made (on the second take if memory serves) on my phone. I found it and sent it to her. We both still got a great kick out of it.
Here is to hoping you do as well.

Brilliant beyond words!
