Not something on audio or video, but two of my great grandsons got together and made a birthday cake--for Jesus. We sang Happy Birthday, and the little kids got to blow out the candles, (one for every 253 years...)

I don't think I will ever look at "Happy Birthday" the same again.
How God must weep at humans' folly! Stand fast! God knows what he is doing!
Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I really enjoyed this. Although I enjoy the traditional, quiet versions of carols...I sometimes tend to get a little...boisterous. :laugh:
