It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas....

[cyrano]

Yes, it's true. The weather's starting to actually get a little cold in the mornings, and I'm trying to pretend that I don't mind that I can't afford to buy people presents. It must be getting close to Yuletide.
In honor of which, I have released this year's Christmas CD. It's basically last year's model with a couple of new tracks added.
