A not-so-old (to me, anyway) Christmas favorite

One day about eight years ago, when I was living in North Texas, I was listening to the radio early in the morning, 99.5 the Wolf out of Dallas, when I first heard the most outrageously funny "Christmas" song I'd ever heard in all my days on this earth. They called it "The Twelve Drinks of Christmas." Come to find out it was actually called "The Twelve Daze of Christmas," and it was done by jazz singer Fay McKay, who I just found out died earlier this year. And I just heard it again, this time here. Words can't do this one justice....if you haven't heard it, well, just listen...
