Christmastime Cheer Via Warm, Friendly Holiday Log Glow

Know the holiday log know God; no holiday log no God.
For all you Xmas celebrating consumerists out there - you know, those of you who participate in the evil practice of stocking stuffing and the early morning unwrapping of gifts - be sure to tune in to TV36 to catch the time-honored holiday log. It will burn from 9 a.m. to noon. What's more, a holiday score will be provided by the likes of Nat King Cole, child abuse practitioner Bing Crosby, smooth Johnny Mathis, and bat-ass crazy Mariah Carey.
And since not all of us have Citizen Kane-sized fireplaces - what, do you think you're Vanessa Getty or something? - this is the next best and the safest alternative. Oh, and it appears that it will run commercial-free, making it safe for all you socioeconomic crises-blithering, clearly altruistic anti-consumerists as well.


Nothing says 'Christmas' like Mariah's dolphin screech.
Leave us not forget that Johnny Mathis is a SF boy: he graduated from George Washington High in 1954.
He sang in all the school assemblies, sounding exactly like Nat King Cole. Now he sounds like Johnny Mathis. IMHO, that's too bad.
"all you socioeconomic crises-blithering, clearly altruistic anti-consumerists as well."
Oh my. Keeping track of Bay Area fringeism is headache-inducing. Can't we just call them SCBCAAC's for short?
I remember when the Yule Log would start on Christmas Eve and run all Christmas Day... Anyone else as fossilized as me? (and get the hell off my lawn!)
no, you get the hell off MY lawn! why, i too remember remember when it was on 24 hours a day. i think we even still had those hazardous oil-based (boiling-y?) bulbs on our xmas tree at the time.
