Good afternoon everyone. Another week under my belt and as per the norm. I could not get to sleep on this my first day off. Oh well, I'm sure the Sandman will be visiting at some point today/tonight. Going to be in the mid forties today and the 50's for the next three. Looks like a good day to set more of the front yard.
For now, week #10 of the NFL has my attention with some very weird games thus far. But they all have more than a quarter to go, so we shall see. Not much else going on except to clean up my office/den a bit and then get ready for evening church service. Have a nice day all and...

It's merry insomnia - hit me hard this week. Getting all excited about plans and happy I have about half of my shopping done and at least 14 cards ready to go. Enjoy the rest of your time off.

To be honest, I don't listen to Christmas music on the radio anymore. Just too many commercial interruptions and too many modern rock-based songs.
I have my recorded collection of several hundred old-time Christmas music selections (think Bing Crosby, Perry Como, Percy Faith orchestra, Glen Miller band, Mormon Tabernacle Choir, etc.)
I play that on my computer at home and use an MP3 player in my car.

I’m with you to an extent. I listen to my playlists far more than the radio. For some reason, though, there’s just something exciting to me that first day the station flips!

I’ll have to check out Percy Faith Christmas! Thanks for the tip.

 

[Binger]

Incredible. How we do this. Year in.and out

Ours here flipped this week. One week later than normal.

Wow! That’s pretty early.

 

[Crown 84]

I don't know, Bing. But I'm glad we do!

 

[Binger]

The local station here is great. But it is getting a lot of push back. It prob will be later next year. It use to flip nov 1

I just don’t get why people get so worked up about “Early” Christmas. I’ve never understood but people draw hard lines about it.

 

[Binger]

I’ll need to try Glen, too.

What is everyone's favorite Christmas singer of all time?
Favorite orchestra or band?
For me: Bing Crosby (singer) and Percy Faith (orchestra.)

 

[Binger]

Agreed Ryan
