What song gives you the most holiday cheer?

Hooray for Hannukah!
Who's the hardest person to shop for on your holiday list?
My father, no doubt. We've had this conversation innumerable times over the past 35 years:
"Dad, what do you want for Christmas/your birthday?"
"I don't need anything."
"There's a difference between need and want...."
Though for some reason, he actually gave us something to work from this year.

Submitted by chris.
Unexpected side effects indicated.
Have you ever Googled your own name? How did you feel about the results?
Submitted by elen.
I do it all the time. And I'm the #1 result for my name, as well as most many of the 1.38 million other results.
I used to also be on the front page of Google for searches for both my first and last name individually, though that's sadly no longer the case.
What is your stupid human trick?
Submitted by Scarlett.
I have many, but perhaps my most popular is answering Jeopardy! questions before Trebek finishes reading them.
When do you start your holiday shopping?
Submitted by Murphy.
That depends. Often it's pretty late, as in Xmas Eve.
What are you thankful for?
The fact that I still have a full head of hair (compared to Eliot Spitzer, at least).
What were you afraid of as a child that seems silly to you now?
Submitted by navelgazer.
Too many to list, including the flashing beacon on top of the Prudential Center (long story, don't ask).
