  1. Thanks, Brian, and the same to you. Some of the definite highlights of the old year 2013: every time you posted a new article. So thanks for that too!

  2. You can't go wrong with a Santa Claus movie with Martians and starring Pia Zadora! (It really is a stinker, though.) Happy holidays to you and your family!

    1. Hi Rick! Yeah, Santa Claus Conquers is pretty weak, even for Saturday kiddie matinee stuff. I had forgotten (or never knew in the first place) that Pia Zadora was in this. Believe it or not, Pia and I are neighbors (kind of). She's been in the papers recently (unfortunately not in a good way), and the general vicinity of her neighborhood is close to where I live.

      Have a great New Year's!
