Christmas Lights

 

1. That is beyond amazing… Those Trans-Siberians really know how to rock

   Sounds good, especially when using a Kloss Model 88 radio as my computer speakers…

2. The TSO definitely gives ”Mannheim Steamroller” a run for their money…

   Speaking of which, a little trivia:  By what other name was “Mannhein Steamroller”
   known   Hint, 1970s and they had a definite C&W flavor.

   Give up?

   C.W. McCall, (in)famous for ”Convoy”, which helped make CB radio and its lingo a fad in the mid-70s and was later made into a movie. Rubber Duck and all…

3. A long, long time ago, my parents sent me to Miami over Christmas, to visit my Aunt.  We drove thru a neighborhood in which two Jewish neighbors had a contest each year over who could have the most elaborate lights. I believe the lights were visible from Mars. The other neighbors hated the crowds driving thru.
