Dear Vocalist Friends,

We're celebrating tonight! It's the official launch of:
The World Encyclopedia of Christmas
by my husband Gerry Bowler.

In it you'll learn such things as the odd versions of songs like 'White
Christmas' in its neo-puritanical form:
"I'm dreaming there'll be no Christmas...
Just like those Scottish days of yore"

or the real story behind the Newfoundland custom known as "Blowing the Pudding"
or what Freudians make of such related symbols as 'the chimney'
or why Christmas is special in the town of Oaxaca Mexico
which celebrates "The Night of the Radishes".
or the sequel to the Canadian song "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer"

Cheers! Karen
