Christmas Eve Odds and Sods

Earlier this month I started a new Sunday feature, Odds and Sods, where I take a trip around the blogosphere. I was busy the last two Sundays, and today being Christmas Eve, I thought it would be a good time for a journey.

Cao over at Cao's Blog has a YouTube video of President Ronald Reagan's 1981 Christmas message.

From there I found CatHouse Chat's Carnival of Christmas.

Christmas Eve is old news for John Ray of Australian Politics. It's already Christmas Day afternoon there. I wonder if he'll be watching a fireworks display like the Hoggett family enjoyed in the film Babe?

For people older than 45, the Apollo 8 mission, the first manned orbital mission to the Moon, is a favorite Christmas Eve memory. The commander of Apollo 8 was Gary, Indiana native Frank Borman. As a retirement hobby, he collects and flies World War II and Korean War era aircraft. That brought him to Hazen, North Dakota on this year's Christmas Eve, which Dakota Lifestyle: Beyond The Weather reports on.

If you are a parent, Sigmund, Carl, and Alfred, better known as "Siggy," has a meaningful Christmas post for you.

Christmas is also a time for friends, and Jonn at This ain't Hell, but you can see it from here talks about his blog pals, both old and new.
