For me, today may as well be Christmas Day. My family has always celebrated on Christmas Eve, making it easy to see the in-laws on Christmas Day. It also makes for two solid days of Christmas, which is always nice.

As a kid though it kind of made Santa less plausible because the presents from Santa showed up during the day of 24th, not the night of the 24th as foretold in all the Christmas stories. The truth is there is a Santa though. Anyone inspired to give a gift out of compassion, love or friendship, expecting nothing in return, is Santa. May you have the joy of being Santa, and being visited by Santa this year!

This one always reminds me of "Johnny B Goode"… of course go figure that Chuck Berry would remind me of Chuck Berry.

Fear not. I'm not starting up any Christmas songs (yet), though I suppose this could be one. Why not?

Also known as "Jeremiah Was A Bullfrog", I keep humming this song to myself the past few weeks. It's just such a "happy happy, alright, yeah, everybody now!", kind of a song!

PS: Even though Three Dog Night gets most of the credit, it was written and released around the same time by Hoyt Axton. Poor Hoyt.
