Carl - Too black? Oh heavens no, I was working for a university at the time, certainly nothing could be too multicultural or ethnic for them. No, they just didn't feel it was holiday-party enough. Mind you, I didn't mind the result - it got me taken off responsibility for keeping the CDs rotating. Bob – actually, no.

It's a tiny fraction the cost of cable tv and improves your life and soul exponentially. Oh how I pity the fools without satellite radio.

They're normally "soft rock." I’m stunned I’m the first to bring this up — WASH does this every Christmas, and it does pretty well for them.

How can someone object to that? It's a great song, has no racially or sexually degrading language, doesn't talk about drinking 40's or smoking... Was it too Black for your workplace?

Let's get a little creative with the Christmas music if we are going to have it around. Enough with the old stuff. We need to hear more stuff like "Christmas in Hollis" and less of "Rudolph" or anything sung by Burl Ives. Tom, you bring up a good point.
