It's just about time to pull out the winter holiday decorations & movies & stuff like that.

I have this weird habit of listening to John Lennon's music when I decorate the house for Xmas every year. Lennon was assassinated Dec. 8th, 1980, & I was a kid.

That year, that weekend happened to be the same weekend we picked our tree & decorated the house. Mom had the radio on to the local rock station while we decorated. It played Lennon's work for 24 hours.

So that's my Xmas music.

That, & stuff like "Fairy Tale of New York" & "White Wine in the Sun" & Spinal Tap's Xmas songs.

Also McCartney's "Pipes of Peace", & "Xmas in the Trenches" by John McCutcheon.

As for movies, my fave Xmas flick is "The Lion in Winter".

24 hours of raging dysfunction with the Plantagenet dynasty. Reminds me of my own family.
