Christmas on TV

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/12/06/AR2006120602196.html

An incredibly weak article, but hey, it's the Post, so what did you expect? What people need to know is that regardless of one's views of the holiday, (and let's face it, mine are pretty shaky), the Grinch is incredibly important. You've got the basic storyline and artwork by that genius, Dr. Seuss; animation by another genius, Chuck Jones; and narration by a fine actor and one of the greatest voices in the history of mankind, Boris Karloff; (and let's not forget the theme song sung by the unmistakable and immortal voice of Thurl Ravenscroft, AND June Foray as Cindy Lou Who). Why, we're talking something along the lines of THE Harmonic Convergence of Pop culture here! Who hasn't watched this at least half a dozen times? And does anyone NOT know the theme song? Why, only Gilligan's Island's theme is probably better known. As for myself, I am petitioning the Olympics Committee to recognize Zoo-Zither-Carzay in upcoming games. This is imporatant and Essential.
