Check out the nativity pics again – somebody showed up from Tokyo tonight. Somebody big, green, and radioactive…

Now that i have Moose and Squirrel, I’m hoping to find Peabody & Sherman.

Yep. The Messiah is an English Oratorio. Who knew? I always reckoned it would be in Latin, myself. Never paid much attention to the words, which are often hard to make out anyway. What else would a Kraut write, I suppose? especially one trying to suck up to the thoroughly German King George II of England? Interesting example of cross-language masking there, Sara. Though mightn't it be more appropriate had it said, “Megadeath sing like dogs”? (Cheap shot at Dave Mustaine, ladies and gentlemen!)

Good point! Also roasted.

Still I was talking about liking sheep more than just “liking” them.

Thanks for the links to your Nativity pics! Of course it's not Christmas without The Guardians. Or The Tick. Or, of course, Triceratops... I wonder if there are Venture Bros. action figures yet? Brock Samson would be a fitting addition. As of course would Doc, Hank, and Dean Venture.

So this is in English? Why did I think the MESSIAH was in Latin or something else?

A friend and I who sang a lot of chorus together back in the day used to find “English words” in the Latin, German, etc. My favorite- and I can’t remember the song now, but it was in Latin- was “Dogs sing like Megadeath.”

Q: “Is there a non-creepy way to like sheep?”
A: Medium-rare.

… consider all the time Shari Lewis spent with her hand up Lamb Chop’s ass, and the goofy grin always on the face of the latter…

And those Muppet shorts – were they boxers or briefs? Maybe some of each. (Does Kermit wear tighty-greenies?)

Billy & the boys have shown up at our Nativity scene again this year (Tom Rogers was very pleased to see Anastasia) – as well as the Predator, calling a temporary truce with a xenomorph. The moose is there again, and this time he’s accompanied by a squirrel.

Pictures at Facebook – I’ll see if I can upload the new ones to Flickr as well.
