Hahaha… I just had to laugh at this picture. I’m sure you got all sorts of well wishes, “Merry Christmas’s” and “Happy New Years”. Hope you don’t feel like this funny character. . . 
To all my friends who sent me best wishes for 2007, it did NOTHING AT all. For 2008, could you please send either money, or gas vouchers?
It’s the holiday season - time to go sing Handel’s “Messiah” at a church near you. Make sure you bring:
I attended my first Messiah sing-along tonight. Graciously, we skipped all the solos and merely sang the chorus parts, so it was a bearable sub 2-hour performance (sub-standard that is). But you’re not there to ace the performance, right… you’re there to enjoy the music, to experience a community, and to honor one of the great choral works — by completely slaughtering the singing!?!?
After a few of the more difficult passages where you alternate being lost, with only thinking you know where you are… laughter breaks out. “Hey! I hit that last note! Right on.. next!”
But the BEST PART is the HALLELUJAH CHORUS! Oh joy… something almost everyone knows reasonably well. And it sounds good, Hallelujah! (finally hits me why they called it that)
All in all… a great experience. But some of those harder sections… oh man. I’ve GOT to bring a recording device next time. That’d be comedy gold! One more reason to do it all over again next year.
