Favorite new holiday finds thanks to the internets!

A lot of beautiful and wonderful things happen on the internet. So, when the magic of the holidays can be accentuated by the sorcery of the world wide web, we can truly begin to experience the reason for the season. What? I have no idea. Anyway. Here are my favorite festive clips experienced thus far this year, ranging from the ridiculous to the sublime.

Calvin, Hobbs, Frosty and the Cocteau Twins.


Improv Everywhere helps out a Salvation Army bellringer.


The cast of Dr. Who sing zanily, look adorable and generally spread christmas cheer.


The Opera Company of Philadelphia performs Handel's Messiah in a Random Act of Culture.


Extreme Late Night Caroling.


The great (and very probably toasted) Martha Stewart concocting her terrifying eggnog with Jimmy Fallon. Wait til she starts throwing ornaments on the ground and then chastises the Roots for not playing a festive-enough tune during Xmas tree star placement. That woman. I wish I could install her in my home during the holidays.


And finally, Uncle Jeff Bridges and Cookie Monster sing a favorite christmas song. (Adorable.)


Those are all my special treats for you so far. Please enjoy and please throw around a lot of love and kindness in this wonderful time of the year.
