I haven't put up my Christmas tree yet, but I have lots of Peanuts ornaments. I always put a little Charlie Brown doll on the top.

you should hang the Charlie Brown one in a place where it catches a breeze, and near a football one. That way it can look like he's missing the kick over and over again.

I may not put up my tree at all this year. My mom is hosting Christmas dinner and I'm not expecting anyone to come over. It seems silly to put it up for just me. I guess I'm just not feeling it this year.

Feelings, nothing more than feelings Trying to forget my feelings of love Teardrops rolling down on my face Trying to forget my feelings of love
Feelings, for all my life I'll feel it I wish I've never met you, girl You'll never come again Feeling, woo-o-o feeling Woo-o-o, feel you again in my arms
Feelings, feelings like I've never lost you And feelings like I'll never have you again in my heart
Feelings, for all my life I'll feel it I wish I've never met you, girl; you'll never come again
Feelings, feelings like I've never lost you And feelings like I'll never have you again in my life
Feelings, woo-o-o feeling it, woo-o-o, feeling again in my arms Feelings

I really have no intense feelings about the "pure" pop versus the grunge/"alternative" rivalry that was such a big part of the local music scene in the 1990s. Most of my knowledge of the pop music from that time comes secondhand, and I'm usually guided towards what I find amusing/diverting by word of mouth rather than by anything "pro" critics have to say.
Right now, I'm blasting mr_cleome's copy of Urge Overkill's Saturation because I think it's a welcome blast of glitzy, dopey fun after a grueling day of work and a million jillion treacly-ass Xmas carols. The arguments in some quarters about whether the band was an actual pop band or more like a ham-fisted post-post-mod joke about pop bands doesn't mean diddly to me.

Frank Conniff played "TV's Frank", the assistant-slash-whipping boy to Trace Beaulieu's evil mad scientist "Dr. Forrester" on Mystery Science Theater 3000. One of the funniest bits was Dr. Forrester imprisoning Frank in a life-size Operation board game and torturing him.

I was never a devotee of MST3K, but those I did see were usually fun. They did trash a mae-for-PBS scifi flick I loved as a teen though, Overdrawn at the Memory Bank, probably the very first Raul Julia work I'd ever seen.

In the Addams Family movies, Uncle Fester was Gomez' brother. But in the TV series he was Morticia's uncle.

John Astin, TV's Gomez Addams, also filled in as the Riddler on the Batman TV series on one second season two-parter, filling in while execs were stuck in pay negotiations with regular Riddler Frank Gorshin.

Another episode of the Batman TV series which was originally supposed to feature the Riddler had to be re-written to feature the Superman villain The Puzzler, played by Maurice Evans, who is probably most famous for playing Dr. Zaius in Planet of the Apes.

I think Maurice Evans is just as, if not more well known for his role as Maurice, Samantha's father, on Bewitched.

Maurice LaMarche has been my favorite voice actor since his days on Pinky And The Brain. Back on the old alt.wb boards, he referred to the duo as something like "the large-headed megalomaniac and his loopy longtime companion." So he sort of outed his own fictional character, I guess.
