First Impressions: 3.08 A Very Supernatural Christmas

These are just my first impressions of this episode. My full-length review with caps will be posted later. This just gives me a chance to express my initial thoughts about the episode and touch on a few highlights.

With each of these First Impressions posts I'll include 2 cropped caps from the episode. One of Dean and one of Sam. I decided to do something different and make them b&w.

Consider these fanart. If you take either of them, please give credit. :)





I'm not too sure about the fanart this time...doing it on the Mac and all. The caps I made are not the greatest, but they do look rather nice in b & w. :)

Multi-Birthday picspam II

Just a quick note here before we get to the pretty caps.

I enjoy doing these picspams for people's birthdays, but with all the birthdays bunching up in December, I've gotta double up with some of you. Hope you don't mind. Christmas is fast approaching and I've got way too much stuff to do.

This birthday picspam is for the following people:

furrysoap whose birthday was on Dec. 13th.

lovetheguys whose birthday was on Dec. 14th.

Sorry I missed your special days. Hope they were good ones.

darkelfgrl who celebrates her birthday on Dec. 20th.

& abydosww who celebrates her birthday on Dec. 23rd.

Best Birthday Wishes to you all!!!

I did something different this time and selected various caps from just one episode, in this case, IMTOD. There's a little bit of everything here, including a cap of Bobby and a few of John. Everyone, as always is welcome to enjoy. :D

( 29 full sized caps -- somewhat dial up friendly )

Songs of the Season: The Holiday Edition - Day 13

I'm going to try to post one or two seasonal/holiday songs a day. These will come from either my own CD collection or my online findings. I'll try my best to make a post each day and we'll see how many I can get done by Christmas day. These songs will run the gamut: from traditional to modern takes on old classics. There will be country, pop, jazz, oldies, big band, new age, comedy....anything and everything. And don't think that if you don't celebrate Christmas that there won't be anything for you. Not all of the offerings will be specific to Christmas. Some will be just about winter. They will all be favorites of mine and I'll give you some info. and why it's my fave with each song. Happy Listening!

Note: I'm using SendSpace for all of these downloads. Since I'm on dialup, it was just a logical choice to choose one host. If you have any trouble getting a song and would like me to use MegaUpload instead, just let me know and I'll try to get it up for you there.

I will also have each of these posts available to all for one week and then will Friends lock them.

Day 13 --

I've got a great lineup today, if I do say so myself. All are winners! :D

Christmas Can't Be Far Away -- By Eddy Arnold from "Christmas With Eddy Arnold".

This is a big favorite of mine. The whole album is great, especially if you're an Eddy Arnold fan like me. I was lucky enough to find this rare CD on my trip to Nashville many years ago. This is a great song highlighting all the signs that Christmas is on its way.

Jingle Bells -- By Frank Sinatra from "A Jolly Christmas from Frank Sinatra".

This is another of my top favorite songs. This version of Jingle Bells is just so hip, it had to be by Sinatra. I first heard this version in a local grocery store several years ago. There was a Starbucks inside the store and you could smell the coffee. Btw, I love the smell of coffee, just don't care for the taste of it. That combined with their warm, cozy lighting just made an impression on me for some reason and that song became a favorite from that moment on.

The Christmas Song -- By Nat King Cole from "The Best Of Christmas, Volume 2".

It just isn't Christmas without hearing this perennial favorite. Many have recorded this classic, but nobody did it quite like Nat King Cole. Mellow and nostalgic, its tones envelope you like a warm blanket.

Frosty The Snowman -- By Jimmy Durante from "Rudolph, Frosty and Friends' Favorite Christmas Songs".

Gotta have a little fun thrown in here. Along with the Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer TV special, this one is my second favorite.


*** I'd love a comment if you're downloading any of the songs, thanks! ***
