"It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!". . . . Time for the 13th Annual "Hegel's Holiday Happenin'" (or, as some would say, "Hegel's Holiday Hell!" -- hohoho). Having posted these in groups "by year" for 7 years, I'm trying something different this time. The Archive has been reorganized by "day," e.g. Dec-21st, Dec-22nd, Dec-23rd and so forth and so on. I've chosen to use dates from December 16 through January 2 as well as to include a group of "extras, undated, etc." for those items that did not fit neatly into the previous categories. As usual, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all (or whatever holiday you celebrate)! I like Christmas -- not for any religious reason (dyed-in-the-wool atheist that I am), but simply because I grew up with Christmas. Trees, Charlie Brown, presents, snow (not these days) christmas songs, special treats, Miracle on 34th Street, It's A Wonderful Life, Meet Me in St. Louis, White Christmas, etc. -- all these form my cultural heritage. Had I grown up with Kwanzaa or Chanukkah, this archive would be much smaller (still can't find any Chanukkah programs - got to be some out there somewhere). Anyway, I digress. Y'all have a good one. Cheers! Hegel, Himself. . .Ñ Director of Library Services St. Trinian's School for Young Ladies This entire post is being downloaded from usenet. I have downloaded Hegel's Holiday posts for 4 years and incorporated them into my own list of Holiday OTR fare. This year I am giving credit where credit is due and making a separate post for what have procured from the best Holiday poster of all, Hegel Himself, so that those of you who do not frequent Usenet may enoy the best of the season. The posts appear on usenet daily and will be posted as I download them. Enjoy them! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Riklaa Dec-16th 1941-12-16 - Burns and Allen - Mailing a Christmas Package.mp3 1941-12-16 - Fibber McGee and Molly - Christmas Program with WW2 comments.mp3 1941-12-16 - Lum and Abner - Lum Forced To Marry Gussie.mp3 1941-12-16 - War Time Christmas - Christmas In Europe.mp3 1945-12-16 - The Great Gildersleeve - A Night at the Opera.mp3 1946-12-16 - Murder at Midnight - Murder Is a Lonely Business.mp3 1947-12-16 - Fibber McGee and Molly - Making a Fruit Cake.mp3 1947-12-16 - Lum and Abner - Building a Float for Christmas Parade.mp3 1948-12-16 - Kraft Music Hall - Dinah Shore.mp3 1948-12-16 - Sealtest Variety Theater - Fibber McGee And Molly.mp3 1949-12-16 - Aldrich Family - Homer's Party.mp3 1949-12-16 - Life of Riley - Riley The Fireman.mp3 1949-12-16 - My Favorite Husband - George's Christmas Presents.mp3 1952-12-16 - Fibber McGee and Molly - Exchanging Christmas Gifts.mp3 1953-12-16 - Fibber McGee and Molly - Christmas Shopping at Bon Ton.mp3 1953-12-16 - The Great Gildersleeve - Gildy and Hooker Renew Friendship.mp3 1975-12-16 - Jean Shepard - Boy Scout Santa Claus.mp3 1976-12-16 - Jean Sheperd - Chester The Hatchetman.Mp3
