Still on the Quest

Well, last year I think Gaudete took the lead, but I am also very fond of both Culver's Christmas and the version of While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks by Night when sung to the tune of "On Ilkley Moor Bar T'at", both from this album. (Which I'm glad to see available as a download, as the CD is over thirty bucks used at Amazon... I love the entire album actually, including all the bits where Stuart is introducing things or telling stories.)

I also like I Believe in Father Christmas by Emerson Lake and Palmer, and there's a medly of European Christmas songs done by Julie Andrews I have on an obscure little CD that was done for Hallmark, I think. It includes Il Est Ne and Noel Nouvelet. And I have an other odd collection which has a song from Ireland called The Little Skillet Pot that's fun, although I've no idea what it has to do with Christmas!

[Error: unknown template qotd]No. Not ever. It's the wrong thing to do on so many levels it isn't even funny.

I work in a public library, and because of CIPA we have filters on the public computers. I've seen them block everything from fanfiction to Fox news. (Poor people aren't allowed to use the entire internet, you know.) This mechanism, if it is in place WILL be misused. It isn't a matter of if, it's a matter of when.

Call your politicians, tell them this is the wrong thing to do.
