Despite having moved across town (and been married) within the past week, I’ve still had time to listen to my favorite holiday music. Ponzi’s ready to burn all my Christmas CDs – including the Jingle Cats album, which apparently drives Wicket nuts. I can’t help it – I always love this time of year. Mind you, I haven’t had much time to go shopping for gifts lately (and nobody’s really given me their wish list). Instead of going out and buying gift certificates you’ll never use, I figured I’d just give the gift of song. No refunds, no returns, no exchanges.

If you wanna play along at home, you can – as there’s nine of us singing (as of today). Just tag your Revver video “jinglevlogs” and we’ll be good to go. Go ahead, I dare you to play all of these at the same time. It’ll put you and your entire home / office into the holiday spirit:

Since purchasing the Acura RL, I’ve become an XM subscriber. Having satellite radio at my mobile fingertips has proven to be a wonderful luxury! For the most part, I remain tuned into the comedy channels (namely, XM Channel 150). The holidays are coming, and XM has responded with a set of Holiday music channels:

  • Holly (XM 103) has “Contemporary holiday hits are sprinkled in with more traditional favorites.” I’ll probably stick with this one, by and large.
  • Holiday Traditions (XM 104) has “Traditional recordings from the ’40s through the ’60s will keep you swinging through the holidays.” Here’s my second choice for XM radio holiday music.
  • Music City Holiday (XM 105) has “Country’s biggest superstars sing contemporary and traditional holiday hits.” I’m never touching this channel. Ever.
  • Classical Christmas (XM 106) has “Traditional carols sung by the greatest classical musicians of all-time.” Yeah, maybe if I get bored.
  • Special X-mas (XM 107) claims that “This is the soundtrack to your dysfunctional family holiday.” Humor? Sign me up.

If I had to choose between the two satellite radio networks, I’d go with XM – hands down. Ponzi’s got Sirius in the car, and it just doesn’t have the “stuff” I care about most.
