It’s finally here. All the xmas parties have passed. All of the shopping has been done. Santa has come and gone. You can now enjoy the company of loved ones - hopefully, without too much distraction from the orgy of greed taking place in your living room floor.

Now that we finally got Santa Claus out of here, let’s get back to some holiday weirdness. Of course I’ll throw in a hefty dose of xmas cheer, as well. We’re now about a week away from xmas day. Here to remind us that “Christmas Time’s A Coming” is your favorite Hew Haw host (sorry, [...]
