First comment! Woo hoo!

I'm gonna call you Uncle Joe Mistletoe from now on!

Tue. 12/23/08 7:21pm From: Joe

For just this show, that's okay, but don't spread it around!

Tue. 12/23/08 7:29pm From: Tulkinghorn

Uncle Mistletoe!

Sinister, or what?

Tue. 12/23/08 7:31pm From: Sean Daily

You know, I could say all kinds of crude things about Santa being stuck in Little Rita Faye's chimney. But I won't.

Tue. 12/23/08 7:32pm From: John

Is there a podcast of this show that I can download...great tunes man!

Tue. 12/23/08 7:33pm From: The Log Lady

Your restraint is admirable, Sean.

Tue. 12/23/08 7:35pm From: Tulkinghorn

I'm informed that Uncle Mistletoe was 'married' to an Aunt Holly.

Don't believe it, myself.

Tue. 12/23/08 7:39pm From: Joe

Podcast...someday!

Wed. 12/24/08 7:03pm From: Olga

Wow, I took "I fell out of a Christmas tree" a little too literally. As in she fell out of the tree and onto her head... which is why her daddy won't hit her. She's kinda special...
