Hi Spud, Yep, DOCL is being aired at 10:00 a.m. in L.A.

Let me know if you don't get any other volunteers and I'll post.

Not to worry, Spudnix.  Jack/Jenn/Abby and Jack reading Luke are
all on December 24th (Xmas Eve).  I don't think the Hortons are
even on Dec. 25.  It's all Carlips and Lumpy.  But I will be
happy to send you a tape.  Just let me know.

YES YES YES!  Those are some of my favorite episodes.  Matt, esp.
did a great job, showing Jack's fears and frustrations, but also
his great love for Jennifer.  HEAVY SIGH...  Wouldn't it be nice
if we got to see that kind of thing again?

>Finally, Christmas day, dressing as Santa and proposing....oh

YES!!!!!  (I shouldn't confess, but I even saw them tape that.
They did it in one take, with no rehearsal.  They scene got cut
short because Missy was laughing so hard at Matt.)

>great stuff. Even last year when he crashed through the window,
>destroying the Horton tree. Years past with Santa Steve.....

I know, it's scary that last Xmas is beginning to look good...

And Patchy Claus...  SOB... I miss Patchy Claus.  I think Jack or
Marcus should have been Patchy Claus this year in Steve's honor.

Yeah, fond memories, when Julie had at least the vestige of a
story.

Not necessary to grovel, but I'm not sure you'll want the
episode.  But I'll save it.  Let me know if you want it when you
find out what it really is.

>Well Happy Sol Invectus, December 25th... Heil Mithras...

OK, you pagan you, all hail to Mithras.  And I hope you celebrated
the Solstice in the appropriate manner!
