Oh, last night I saw a hilarious Xmas special with Shrek. My husband and I were laughing our heads off! Looks like I have a new favorite now! My husband found one Saturday a Christmas special that ran all the old Christmas shows in years past. It was a wonderul trip down memory lane! Oh, how can I forget my favorite Hard Rock, Coco and Joe cartoon along with Suzy Snowflake cartoon. They are classics! <BR/><BR/>Michele L.Michele L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15827059770508809460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14185471.post-76052572521269205652007-11-29T21:55:00.000-06:002007-11-29T21:55:00.000-06:00Chevy Chase National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation....Chevy Chase National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.

Die Hard (the first one). I had no idea that I considered it a Christmas movie until I was half way through it the other night.<BR/><BR/>Acres of gorgeous man-flesh, abundant gratuitous explosions, snippets of smart-assery galore, all set to a back ground of Christmas decorations and a Christmas carol sound track.
