For many of us, the ultimate Christmas movie is Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life from 1946. Its affirmation of the triumph of good over evil must have been a tonic in those uncertain days after the war which had shaken the West to its foundations. The uplifting final scene with the soundtrack of Hark! The Herald Angels Sing is a guaranteed tearjerker.
Merry Christmas 3
I love Christmas time – for the music, the story, the food, family and friends.
Ave Maria is one of Schubert’s most popular works. Beyond the song as originally composed by Schubert, it is often performed and recorded by many singers under the title “Ave Maria” (the Latin name of the prayer Hail Mary, and also the opening words and refrain of Ellen’s song, a song which is itself a prayer to the Virgin Mary), in musically simplified arrangements and with various lyrics that commonly differ from the original context of the poem. It was arranged in three versions for piano by Franz Liszt.[1]
Enjoy this.

Canadians are in a tizzy.
(Bee) Trump Announces Plan To Annex Canada And Rename It ‘Gay North Dakota’

Though the monumental change took Canadians by surprise, experts predicted they would be far too polite to raise any opposition to the idea…sorry! “They’ll go along with it,” said one Trump transition team insider. “We’re offering them the opportunity to finally become Americans, which is what they have always wanted. They’ll be nice about it, because they’re Canadians. Sorry, I mean Gay North Dakotans.”
Sorry!
At publishing time, rumors persisted that Trump would also name Justin Trudeau the first female governor of Gay North Dakota.
Yesss.
Says who? Canada’s NDP! From their manifesto.
The struggle to build a democratic socialist Canada must proceed at all levels of Canadian society. The New Democratic Party is the organization suited to bringing these activities into a common focus. The New Democratic Party has grown out of a movement for democratic socialism that has deep roots in Canadian history and the USSR, China and other failed Communist states. It is the core around which should be mobilized the social and political movement necessary for building an independent socialist Canada. The New Democratic Party must rise to that challenge or become irrelevant. Victory lies in joining the struggle.
But only for thee and not for me. So says the leader of Canada’s Socialist Party (NDP). Because I’m not like everybody else.
I couldn’t agree more. So says the deputy leader of Canada’s NDP:

Cause I’m not like everybody else.
For decades Canada’s NDP have tried to distance themselves from the Waffle Manifesto, The Regina Manifesto, and of course Tommy Douglas’s thesis, The Problems of the Subnormal Family. But it appears they have been reborn in the Trudeau government.
NDP and Liberals: Stay out of my life!
Only in Canada can you be penalized for working hard, being frugal and saving your money. Canadian collectivism where everyone is miserable. Remember if everyone is miserable then no one is miserable. That is the NDP’s stated goal: for everyone to be miserable.
The latest from our Prime Minister Justin “Bended Knee” Trudough (sic).
Pathetic!
The left’s progressive world and we have to pay for it.

One of the Kink’s better songs.
