A Solid Gold Christmas to you and yours

By Kathy Bushouse December 24, 2008 08:05 AM

I logged onto Facebook the other day and saw that my friend and colleague Scott Travis referenced this gem in one of his status updates.

I immediately requested the link to Solid Gold Christmas, which it turns out is an 11-part (!!!) collection on a YouTube channel called FuzzyMemoriesTV.

I will spare you all 11 parts, but will bring you clip No. 2, because of the witty banter and Marie Osmond. And the Solid Gold Dancers doing an interpretive dance to Frank Sinatra singing "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing!"

If you fast-forward to the 6-minute mark, you'll see an appearance by Madame. And at the very end, there's a plug for Pepsi Free. Totally 80s.

For those of you bored enough today to watch all 11 parts, click here and search for Solid Gold Christmas.

About the author

The Internet: It's like your parents. It cares for you, feeds you, lets you sleep in its bed when you're awake at night... it's always there. Our solemn mission at "Thank you, Internet" is to give it a phone call once in a while, compliment it on its watercolor drawings and buy it birthday cards - metaphorically speaking, of course. Your job is to sit back and enjoy our frenzied attempts to celebrate said Internet, in all it's weirdness, utility and blatant stupidity. By the end of your visit, you too will be saying, "Thank you, Internet."

For him, it's a crossroads where college humor and the most valuable scholarly information can be found and, in some cases, even melded.
