Christmas Island

Post by MargaritaMatt »

I busted it out for the first time this Holiday season, what a killer album for Christmas music. It puts me in the best mood. I just want to sit by the xmas tree and drink rum.

Had in in the car last weekend, never played it. :(

Too warm here in Michigan, doesn't feel like the season yet. But that's all changing by tomorrow afternoon...

I wish I could keep it north of Traverse City, but that's not gonna happen.

I haven't been in a Christmas mood at all. But I broke out Christmas Island yesterday and I'm much better today. 8)
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"

If we really HAVE to deal with the crap of the Christmas season, that is one fantastic album to listen to, and, in fact, it gets played year 'round on my C.D. player.

I remember Jimmy playing that one on Letterman when the cd first came out. Good Christmas song.

I wish I could keep it north of Traverse City, but that's not gonna happen.

Reminds of a Trivial Pursuit question: If you fly directly south from Detroit City Airport, what's the first foreign country you'll fly over? Canada.

... and just to stay on topic, hearing Jimmy say "C'mon dude share the wave" still cracks me up :lol:
and another useless piece of geography trivia, what major US city is Tampa due south of?
