Why do some singers/choirs make Christmas carols sound like dirges? I am just listening to Oh Come All Ye Faithful on the radio and it sounds more appropriate for a funeral than for the joyful season Christmas is supposed to be. Carols are supposed to be happy and sung in praise of the birth of Jesus. You can save the dirges til Easter.Today beer can be sold in grocery stores. The law prohibiting it has been in force since 1927. At the moment it is not in every store nor is it all makes of beer available but presumably this will change as time goes by. It was also made mandatory that some of the sales will be of craft beers which is a good thing locally as there is a craft brewery in the town. Not being a beer drinker, it doesn't make much difference to me, but Matt drinks a beer now and then although as he generally buys what he wants when he is in the liquor store, I guess it won't make much difference to him either. Maybe once they sell wine in the grocery store, that will make a difference too us. I also heard something about selling medical marijuana in the liquor store. How ridiculous. That should be in the drug store if anywhere. They were talking about it on TV and saying it would help to get rid of the "gangs". I don't think so, the big money is in hard drugs. That too won't make any difference to us.
'Tis the season - I love Brie anyway. I especially like it with fruit or fruit flavours. Also, this seems pretty easy.
