The great Get Rich Slowly blog posted an article on their holiday tradition of listening to the Cinnamon Bear.  This is a radio show from 1937 that follows the search of 2 children for a missing silver star that usually goes on top of their Christmas tree.  It’s designed to be listened once a day from November 29.  You can read more about it, and find links to each episode, here.

I am definitely one that loves to look at Christmas lights.  I’ve never had a great display at my house – not sure why.  You’d figure that with my love of messing around with technical things I’d have my own lighting controller by now.  Oh well.  Guess I just have to enjoy the work of others.

Here is one of the great ones – especially if you like guitar hero.  Check it out!

I read this great Op Ed piece in the Wall Street Journal at Christmas time.  Thought you might enjoy it.  Certainly puts our problems in perspective.
