   Thanks Uncle Jay, waited all year for the singing recap and wasn’t disappointed.
   That’s more than I can say for anything on TV.

   Merry Christmas and whatever else you want to celebrate!

   An excellent wrap-up for an “amazing” year.

   Happy Holidays to you, and may the Supreme Being of Your Choice [if any] bring felicitations and other good stuff to you [but only if that's your desire.]

    Happy HanaKwanzimas to you too, Uncle Jay! I love your year in review! So informative too.

    For instance, I didn’t know I could trade in my Dharma van for a car from Japan!

    Great job, as always, Jay. You always brighten our week, but this time you’ve outdone yourself. If there was any justice in the world, you’d drown out O’Reilly and Olberman and all their fellow gasbags.

    Uncle Jay -> u forgot to include the lobbyists. u know the ones that own our elected Senators & Reps, lock, stock and barrel. And that $600k lobbyist pal, Joe Lieberman. Way to go Joe, you sold your soul and constituents out to Health Insurance Mega corporations.
