If you find one of these in your bathroom this holiday season, you’ll know that Bunk paid y’all a visit.

Saturday Matinee – Reptilicus, Rob, Roches & James Gurley
The Day after Christmas. Quick! What’s the first word that comes to mind? “Reptilicus! An annihilating mastodon immune to all known weapons of warfare!”
Where’s Rob? Simple premise, funny result, and the ending makes it all worthwhile. [Found here.]
Cbullitt sent an email link to The Roches’ version of “The Hallelujah Chorus.” It reminded me of the first Roches’ song I ever heard, “Mr. Sellack.”
Here’s some serious retroness from 1967. From the Utoobage:
Janis Joplin with Big Brother & The Holding company perform live on San Francisco TV program called “POW” that had Rolfe Petersen as the host on KPIX.
Big Brother & The Holding Company’s guitarist James Gurley recently passed away at the age of 69.
PEACE ON EARTH

Merry Christmas, America. Hope you like crap.
Thanks. Thanks a lot, you gutless clueless corrupt morons.
From CNN at 11:40PM:
Washington (CNN) — Senate Democrats braved the aftermath of a blizzard Sunday to continue their push to pass a sweeping health care bill before Christmas.
Right. They were standing in the snow, shivering, while the Republicans kept the doors shut. Phew.

[Update 10:24PM: 60-40. Wimps. Thank you, too, Mr. Lieberman.]
The Three Wise Guys
Moe, Santa, Larry, Santa and Curly.
This is the greatest Christmas display we’ve seen in at least 12 months. Two Santas and the 3 Wise Guys, and they’re all life-size, too. Pure efficient genius. (I know where I’m gonna go busking.)
Curly, Larry and Moe.
Curly, Larry and Moe.
Curly, Moe and Larry. Some folks display the 3 Wiseguys year round, just like God intended.

Saturday Matinee – Simpsons in Estonia, How to Make Candy Canes, Sleigh Ride, Darlene Love with the E Street Band
Another Simpsons opening scene re-enactment, from ESTONIA!
[Found here.]
How candy canes are made. Very cool. [Found here].
Bunky just can’t get into the Christmas Spirit until he hears the Ronettes’ version of “Sleigh Ride.”
Unfortunately, the best vids of that song have been pulled, and we just can’t bring ourselves to post a video of a vinyl record spinning on a turntable, or worse, a picture of an album cover (losers). BUT, we’re certainly willing to post THIS version. Screw the copyright Scrooges.
So here’s a compromise, a Christmas song with Darlene Love, backed by the E-Street Band (with video splices from, um, “Home Alone“).
