all I want for Christmas...

[topaz]

While driving in to work yesterday, I heard on the radio (on one of our new all-Christmas-all-the-time radio stations) "I Want a Hippopotamus For Christmas." Mad props to muckefuck for finding a link to the song.

I cannot understand how I have gone 35 years of my life without ever hearing this song before.  A childhood that included annual renditions of "All I Want for Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth" and Eartha Kitt singing "Santa Baby" should surely have brought this into my life too, but apparently not.

So the Mr. Turkey song wasn't good enough for you after all, huh?

Ms. Cookies! For shame! Nothing will ever quite be like the Mr. Turkey song.

Phew! You had me worried.
