And finally, not to be a Grinch but is this the definitive word from God on the decorating of trees for Xmas? (Jeremiah 10:1-5 from the New International Version of the Bible)
Happy holidays to everyone who's taken the time to read Different Kitchen this year and thanks to all my fellow bloggers and writers who I've cited, ripped off or otherwise been insipired or educated by. I look forward to continuing giving you best ish I can find or think up in music, news, pop culture, humor and whatever else grabs me in this blog as long as I have time to do it justice.
I always like getting feedback so drop a comment or email about items I've posted, what you think of music I'm raving about or whether you think my politics are wack or whatever.
Anyway, unless some really good stuff pops off and I have time to write about it, my plan is that the only other posts between now and the New Year will be my long-threatened Year-End lists. However, blogging is like taking heroin so the smart money is on expecting me to disregard that sentiment and post new stuff soon.
