Christmas

There are only a few more weeks until Christmas, and that can only mean one thing. Okay, actually it means several things, but one of our favorites is the 'CMA Country Christmas' special. The third annual two-hour holiday and country music celebration will air on ABC on Dec. 20.

This holiday season parents everywhere will be looking for presents their kids will enjoy and hopefully they can tolerate. I played the first "Epic Mickey" with my daughter on the Wii and it was really fun and well done. I have no reason to think 2 will be any different.

Warning: If you watch Lady Antebellum's Christmasy new video, you're going to be in the holiday spirit before you even get a slice of Thanksgiving turkey. Filled with gifts, wreaths, and -- of course -- mistletoe, the band's 'Holly Jolly Christmas' video is perfect for holiday viewing.

If you are like me, you dread Christmas shopping. I always have a hard time with getting the perfect gift. Maybe I can help. I can't tell you what to get for that certain someone in your life this year, but I may be able to help you with what NOT to get.

We have a unique opportunity for you and your family to spend a night at the North Pole with Santa Claus and you never have to leave the Capital District.

I am what is called a "Casual Gamer". Which means I play video games a couple times a week. So I feel very qualified to tell you about the next big game, "Halo 4".

Are you one of those Country Music fans that looks forward to 'Country' Christmas music?

Every Tuesday night I host Country Line Dancing and fun at the Ballroom on Sunset Dr. in Latham.  This past Tuesday, Richie Phillips hit the floor.  However, he wasn't dancing, he was rhyming!

This Public Service Announcement from Finland is suppose to make us not drink near our kids but if I was a kid and saw this I would wet myself.

Truly and honestly my favorite gift this Christmas was having a little down time to spend at home and celebrate with those I love. I also got one of those kick butt three crock pot units that rocked! I love to cook and this gives me three ways to make it happen with one unit.

Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, and Seasons Greetings from our family to yours. We hope you have a very happy  holiday and we thank you for all of your support all year long. Don't forget to keep checking our website for all sorts of holiday related stories you can share with your family this weekend.

As I sum up my greatest holiday novelty songs segment, I wanted to end on a high note. A high note that you will be giggling to as well.  Here is not only a great song, but a great selection of hysterical holiday parodies, from the king of parody collectors-Dr. Demento:
