I figured we should have a Christmas Holiday okay, Winter Party. Various related stories, links to videos, or songs related to the holiday I figured could go here. Guilty pleasure Christmas songs are okay too, but since this is a skeptical forum, are not required. We'll see how many posts I get for this topic.
And remember, if you spike the eggnog, make sure you have a bowl of non-alcoholic eggnog, and make sure everyone knows which is which.

Don't want to forget the forgettable O, Holy Night, the horrible version.

"We are all connected; to each other biologically, to the earth chemically, to the rest of the universe atomically."
"So you're made of detritus [from exploded stars]. Get over it. Or better yet, celebrate it. After all, what nobler thought can one cherish than that the universe lives within us all?"
