Sorry to be a little late tonight; I had a party to attend! Tonight we conclude Barbara Robinson’s classic, The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. 
I think this was a play poster.
One Christmas song that always has me tearing up a little is “Away in a Manger” as sung by the cherub choir. Joan Baez does a good job too.
For those who’d like something a bit different, I’m including a Zip file of the story from December 4, 2007: Deputy Sid’s Gift by Tim Gautreaux, a fine contemporary Southern writer. I always enjoy reading stories in a dialect not my own. My general plan of attack is merely to suggest the accent, rather than trying to mimic it perfectly (which I can’t do in any case). If you’re from Louisiana, let me know how well I did on this one. I’m only including the Zip file because the story was 4.06 MB too long to fit the file-hoster’s protocol.

I'll have to come back in a day or so when its the end of a long day that follows a long weekend. But I'd like to listen...
