FYI: "White Christmas" is an Irving Berlin song reminiscing about an old-fashioned Christmas setting. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the version sung by Bing Crosby is the best-selling single of all time, with estimated sales in excess of 50 million copies Regards, Ted
Have a Merry, Merry Christmas, Ted. In a way, you are a MFO Santa bringing us a bag of gifts to sort through and play with every day. Thanks for a year full of goodies.
... the "story is about erasing divisions and distinctions and borders and walls. A Jewish baby is born in Palestine in abject poverty and hailed as a king. An unwed teenager becomes the ideal mother, and her baffled boyfriend the model of manhood. Angels from heaven choose for their audience a scraggly band of sheepherders with dirty hands and the stink of work upon them. And relentless foreigners, lacking proper papers, pursue a beacon of liberty, traveling through the night with a light from above.
You may recognize those last words as a snippet from Irving Berlin, the Russian boy who wrote “God Bless America,” the Jewish songwriter who dreamed a “White Christmas.”
Cheers to one and all. You're among my most active blessings! Cheers, too, to Charles who spent Christmas morning tweaking MFO Premium (I get notices); he must mightily perplex Santa.
Wishing you peace and joy, now and in the seasons to come.

Nothing beats the classics. White Christmas must be Bing. Christmas Song must be Nat. etc.
Hope you are well old friend and continue that way.
