Hey Shamey!

I'm just drooling over all the learning I want to do. I'm seeing the Christmas Spectacular tomorrow!

Nice! I'm seeing the tour here, in a few weeks.

It's my first Christmas (Spectacular!!)

I've seen it twice in New York.

I'll be curious to hear how you like the end.

Did you guys ever hear the story of LS and "Ho Ho" at the Christmas Spectacular? It's rather amusing.

Evening Shamey, Mamie, Shira and Hep and any other lurkers.
Wish I could see the Christmas Spectacular..there's a radio station here in the area that is already playing all Christmas music 24-7...I'm not quite ready for that yet.

But are you ready for the "Ho Ho Story" from The Radio City Music Hall Xmas Show and Little Sir?

[shira467]

Posted: 11/7/07 at 10:18pm

Anything from Little Sir!

Gah. I have to figure out a class NOT to take. I hate passion for learning.

I haven't.

Okay Miss P are you going to tell us the story?

When LS was little, he thought that Santa Claus's name was "Ho Ho" because that's what he always heard whenever people pointed him out. It was so cute, we all started calling Santa "Ho Ho." (LS was too little to even SAY "Santa Claus.")

So when we took him to Radio City for the Xmas Show, he went berserk. Reindeer flying, toys coming to life, the Rockettes as Toy Soldiers, Ice Skaters, All the "fantasy" of Christmas.

Then Act II comes along and it's all somber and reserved. The passage from the bible is being recited and the holy family sits atop a little mountain bathed in starlight as men and animals come to praise the son of god.

LS turns to me and says, "I don't like this!"
Me: "Just wait! You're going to see a real, live donkey come out in a second."
LS: "I don't want to see that!"
Me: "You're even going to see the baby Jesus."

He then stands up and says (in his "outside voice"):

"I don't want to see the baby Jesus. I want to see HO HO!!! Where's HO HO???"

That is absolutely hysterical.

adorable!

i think Michael Cevaris is on L&O CI right now. Not being too familiar with him, I can't tell for sure.

I forgot one line. I was pointing to Mary and the baby and saying, "That's the baby Jesus right there."

And he replied, "I don't like the baby Jesus! I like HO HO!!!" (really loud too)

[shira467]

Posted: 11/7/07 at 10:37pm

He's SO cute....

[bwayaddict]

Posted: 11/7/07 at 10:38pm

Really cute Miss P! I won't relay that story to Big T however as it will just confirm his dismay at the state of Santa Claus versus Jesus. ha ha

Oh, Miss P.

Tink, did Michael bring his dog on television, too? He rarely goes anywhere whithout that dog.

[miss pennywise]

Well, I asked LS if he knew who Jesus was and he nodded and said, "Uh huh." So I asked, "Okay, who is Jesus?"

"He's a fairy who wears a white dress and no shoes."

That really does sum it up quite nicely.

[shameless]

The sad thing is that that's pretty much what I was thinking last December, Miss P.

Edit: The "Ho Ho" part, not the fairy part.

All right, Kids, time to walk some dogs. Good night!
