On the run-up to Christmas...

...I'm thinking that 'The Little Drummer Boy' is an utterly stupid carol. Here's this poor young woman, barely more than a girl, who's exhausted after giving birth to the Messiah in a freakin' stable in an unfamiliar town. There are all these weird strangers hanging about the place - some of whom are glowing. She's just got the baby to sleep when this little squirt comes along and thinks "What this chick really needs right now is a drum solo..."

I read your post out to my wife … and it gave us both a chuckle!

You’re right; it’s an absurd concept for a Christmas carol!

All the best,

Bob
