Firesign update: note from Phil Austin

Merry All to all and everyone.  This is just a self-serving note to notice that
there's a bunch of new stuff on my blog:

There's a new story: "We Three Kings of Tacoma Are" and below it, the previous
post called "Putting the X Back in Xmas" has a full complement of insane
Jesus/Santa carols if you click on the discussion link.

We're looking for more, so feel free to contribute.
