Which Way to the Jersey Turnpike?

















It's funny how a dominating Giants' performance can add to the Christmas merriment for me. And against the Redskins no less. Still somewhat of stretch for the playoffs, but all I ask for (after suffering through the lost decade of the 70s and many other frustrating losses) is to play Meaningful Football in December. It all just makes for a happier holiday season.

Which leads me to the next selection on my list of great Christmas songs. While I think Otis Redding's version is probably definitive, I prefer the Springsteen version, if only because of this video that reeks with seasonal giddiness and features the obligatory Santa appearance at the end.

This is a song and video that gives me almost as much happiness as last night's game.
