(I think I just had my first honest to goodness conniption fit... Danny Kaye in Holiday Inn???? Ugh, just ugh.... Poor poor Fred Astaire!)

Well, now, there, just hold on for a minute, young fella, as Bing Crosby was reported to have said to David Bowie as he was trying to unzip the older entertainers trousers, following their duet on
Little Drummer Boy, during which Bowie misinterpreted Crosbys professional eye-twinkling for the cameras as a sexual come-on, I wasnt dissing Fred Astaire in any way, so that anyone needed to say, Sheesh, or get his/her knickers all in a knot (or as you put it, have your first honest to goodness conniption fit), acting like a couple of Dizzy Dixie Drama Queens, about to pass out from the vapours!
I love Fred Astaire (in a purely Platonic, non-necrophiliac way, of course)! But tonight is the first night of Chanukah, and Ive been listening all day to Danny Kaye records (some 78s, believe it or not) and got that most Jewish of all heart-warming Christmas films,
White Christmas, also known as
Irving Berlin's White Christmas, confused with
Holiday Inn, of which it was in part
a remake.

So, in the words of the Rugrats heavy metal song:
Chanukah, Chanukah, Light the Menorah
Lets all eat Latkes, and dance the Hora!
Now, lets preview this to see where we currently are with the game...
Ah, yes, scab remover (as if!)
Hmm.. rotten holiday attitude changer... Got it!
