| King Kong & The Abominable Snowman |
Wave your hands in the air, wave them like you just don't care! Because it's two days until Christmas!!!
That's correct Minions this is where it's at, two days away and weeeeee!!!
So let's join King Kong and the Abominable Snowman in a hair raising hand wave shall we? Of course we shall!
Oh what fun it is to wave in a one horse open sleigh, hey!
Now go jingle all the way and get ready for those visions of sugar plumbs...
Christmas on Wikipedia -
THIEF. WARRIOR. GLADIATOR. KING. Ripped from the pages of Robert E. Howard's beloved pulp stories, and brought to the screen by maverick director John Milius, Conan the Barbarian is one of the most beloved fantasy-action adventures in Hollywood history, which not only popularized a new subgenre - the sword-and-sorcery film - but also made a cinematic icon of its star, former bodybuilding sensation Arnold Schwarzenegger. In an ancient land, young Conan witnesses his family being slaughtered by an evil snake cult ransacking his village. Raised as a slave, the adult Conan (Schwarzenegger) rises up through the fighting pits, becoming an unparalleled and fearsome warrior. Unexpectedly freed, Conan and his companions - two fighters, Subotai (Gerry Lopez) and Valeria (Sandahl Bergman), as well as a Wizard (Mako) - are enlisted by King Osric (Max von Sydow) to free his daughter from the hypnotic clutches of the same cult that murdered Conan's family long ago, led by the shape-shifting sorcerer Thulsa Doom (James Earl Jones). Crom has commanded it: at long last, Milius' glorious ode to the days of high adventure (co-written by Oliver Stone) has been restored in glorious 4K with hours of bonus features and a heart-racing Atmos remix that immerses you in the action, accompanied throughout by an electrifying, career-best score by the late Basil Poledouris (RoboCop). If you do not listen... then to hell with you!

Shall we play reindeer games? We shall!!
Hope you are surviving the Holiday Season, mine has been hectic, thus the month of December has not had a full Michael's Musings column.
They will return full throttle post Christmas.
Cheers!
Me and the joy of the season here!
As judgement day draws near (only 6 more days!) the time has come to ponder the question "Have You Bee Naughty Or Nice?"
So why don't we collectively Hump Day & Chill to this quandary. Naughty and Nice are quite relative terms with no real clear definition. Thus I'm gonna give you mine and trust me, my definitions of them are a one size fits all proposition.
Let's start with the ever so popular Naughty. Everyone is obsessed with Naughty because it promises forbidden fruit. Actually it doesn't, personally Naughty to me is treating other people badly, not being considerate of those around you and general self centeredness when in a public or social situation. There is no excuse for this kind of behaving badly, unfortunately this type of behavior has risen in the past few years.
OK, Nice it's your turn. Do the opposite of the abovementioned Naughty - always live in kindness. It's the only way for the world to heal. I know there are exceptions to this rule (you know those unexpected douche nozzles that need to be schooled) but Nice is one of those things that when you give it, you receive it. Pay it forward Minions!
There you have it, now Hump Day & Chill to that!

| Grace Jones & Pee Wee Herman |
Christmas time is a time for memories, I had a recollection dance in my head as I woke this morning of Grace Jones singing The Little Drummer Boy on Pee Wee Herman's Christmas Special! Yay! It sure beats a vision of sugar plumbs, for real!!!
Pee Wee's Christmas Special has always been one of my favorite things since it aired December 21, 1988 for a myriad of reasons. But Grace Jones putting her unique spin on the Drummer Boy will forever stand out to me.
Thus there you have it one of my fondest Christmas Time memories Minions. I'm sure you have some too, tis the season enjoy!
Catch the video of Grace singing Drummer Boy to Pee Wee after the jump -
