On Friday, I encountered the first- and, depending on my future
encounters, the best- instance of a surprise birthday party working.
Well done, Aaron, Megan, and Ashley, and the others who contributed to
the excellent execution of this event.

I’d tell you more, but he tells it so much better.  With pictures. 

Yeah, it’s about a month too late for this particular recommendation,
but “Barenaked for the Holidays”, by the Barenaked Ladies, is about as
good a holiday album as I’ve ever heard. A nice mix of Christmas
classics, some original tunes, and enough humor to remind you of who,
precisely, made this album. I really can’t say enough good about it.

Put it on next year’s list. Or, better yet, get it now, when it might be dirt cheap.
