There's snow on the ground in Lubbock. With a little luck someone will pop a little Christmas dinner in the oven to cook. You may find an odd present or two under your tree. Yes, Christmas is here and if you're looking for a real 'old fashion Xmas' with Irish drinking songs and tattooed women in Santa Suits, then you've come to the right place. More after the jump.

It's Not To Late To Get Your Humbug On [VIDEO]

Wes — Tue, 25 Dec 2012 11:00:28 +0000

Yes, let’s call this the latest salvo in the “War On Christmas”. It’s every “humbug” from 32 versions of “A Christmas Carol”. It even includes versions from the Flintstones and the Muppets. It’s the ultimate in Humbuggery and it’s next. Yeah, some folks tried to make “The War On Xmas” a thing, but it never [...]

A Krampus Carol [VIDEO]

Wes — Mon, 24 Dec 2012 13:23:30 +0000

I’ve brought up “Krampus” before. In some cultures “Krampus” is, or was, the ‘anti-Claus’. Krampus whips the bad kids and puts them in a bag (presumably to take them to hell). Now, for some reason celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain brings you “A Krampus Carl” after the jump. CAUTION, THIS IS DARK AND TWISTED. It’s intended [...]

A Christmas Tradition I Can Get Behind

Wes — Mon, 24 Dec 2012 11:00:51 +0000

Have you ever heard the expression “yule log”? Do you know what a “yule log” is? It’s a log. Thank you for asking. No, seriously, I have some pre-Christmas history for you after the jump. The yule log originally didn’t have anything to do with Christmas. In fact it was around centuries before the times [...]

AC/DC-Mistress For Christmas [VIDEO]

Wes — Mon, 24 Dec 2012 11:00:29 +0000

Christmas music is a funny thing, especially for a rock station. First and foremost, practically no new bands have put out anything good for the holidays. We've had an odd or an end here, but nothing to really write home about or sing along with. For that reason I'm dipping back into the archives just a little bit to bring you some classic AC/DC with just a little bit of sleazy holiday spirit included. More after the jump.

Happy Festivus Everybody

So have you begun ‘the airing of the grievances” yet? When you think of it the holiday of ‘Festivus’ makes about as much sense as any other [...]

16 Second Stare Delivers A New Grinch For A New Era

Wes — Mon, 26 Nov 2012 11:00:50 +0000

How did they even do this? The Grinch song had one of the most identifiable riffs of any song ever. It's barely in this tune, but it still rocks like a super son of a gun. This is like taking the batman cartoons and making it into the Batman movies we know today. This is the Grinch all grown up and ready to kill! Get Grinchy with 16 Second Stare next.

Here's To Holly Jolly Humbug!

Wes — Tue, 09 Oct 2012 10:00:13 +0000

Christmas stuff has been out in stores, some of it before Halloween. I hate Christmas. I at least hate what Christmas has become to most people. To me Christmas is about 90% people trading pieces of plastic crap. A kid gets a toy, a mom gets a foot massager and dad gets a travel mug or something. More after the jump.

"A Christmas Story 2″ Is Here-Spoon Out Your Eyeballs Now!

Wes — Sat, 08 Sep 2012 21:00:51 +0000

Can we put this down as one of those things that should have never have happened? This is a travesty and it should be put down like a three-legged horse. Why? Why? Why? More after the jump. Of course most of the stars of the original “A Christmas Story” are dead. I understand that new [...]

Wes — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 17:06:38 +0000

With it’s quick stops and starts and robotic nature, dub step is a natural for a Christmas light display. Click through for some Skrillex meets Kris Kringle.

Soldiers Silent Night [VIDEO]

Wes — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 19:08:17 +0000

I'm warning you right now, this video will touch your heart. Some of you will cry. I didn't cry, I just got something in both eyes. I recommend you watch this and make everyone you know watch it. It honors and makes you proud of our soldiers (I know you already are, but this takes it to another level). More after the jump.

Candlelight At The Ranch 2011

Dead Body Found Under Christmas Tree [AUDIO]

Wes — Fri, 09 Dec 2011 16:54:39 +0000

Here’s a Christmas wish nobody wanted: a dead body. Just imagine running downstairs in your feetie pajamas, tearing through the presidents and finding a corpse. The only thing that kept that from happening is that the body was found now instead of later. I would think if you were trying to hide a dead body [...]

More F'd Up Facts About Santa [AUDIO]

Earlier we told you about how Santa brought the dead back to life, but there’s a down side to Santa as well. Check out this follow up. Santa is a Saint. I know that’s a little obvious, but people kind of forget that fact. They also forget that you have to do certain things, and [...]
