Share your favorite holiday song.
Please enjoy this heartfelt rendition of O Holy Night, (performed by a dude named Steve M., a faithful church dweller and lover of all things Christ-y,) which I first discovered on The Sneeze. There is a bit of mystery behind the origins of this song, which make it even more fascinating...it was widely believed to have been performed by Fred McKinnon, but then on his personal blog, Fred himself denied ever singing the song. In fact, he places the credit on some Steve M., who does not reveal his last name out of fear of being mobbed by groupies and fans alike...the next Britney!
In fact, there is a rumor that there is ANOTHER clip by this Steve M...one that is said to be even more shocking than O Holy Night. I MUST HAVE IT. The first person to find it is crowned Internet Cyber Stalker of the Universe. There will be a ceremony and EVERYTHING.
The only thing that would make this more suspenseful is if he was a crazy dude living in a cabin in the backwoods of Montana, holed up with an arsenal of weaponry and waiting for the mutated vampire zombies to attack...and by the way, this would make a GREAT Law and Order episode...Dick Wolf, are you listening?!
A warning: Listening to this song all the way through is truly one of the most painful experience I have ever lived through. But don't wuss out and quit before the end...the payoff is HUGE. You will never be able to listen to another holiday song again without thinking first of fabulous Steve and his soulful rendition. He means it, y'all.
I actually got picked apart by a couple of people who were so offended by the song they actually berated me for exposing them to it. FOOLS.
What these scrooges need to understand is that Steve honestly put all of his heart and soul into performing this song. It wasn't meant to be funny, but has become the cause of many a ruptured spleen because of how insanely great it is.
I love you, Steve M. Don't ever change!

Q: Show us a holiday craft.
A: My awesome 5th Grade class made these relief print holiday cards. Super-hubby Andy taught them how on the day of our field trip to the Asian Art Museum. We used styrofoam meat trays donated by the local Safeway, and the kids used dulled pencils to make their designs. I am tempted to sell them and make a fortune, they're so incredibly cool. Alex made my favorite, I think. Andy calls it, "Sneaky Santa."
Show us what you hope Santa brings you.
