I’ve always hated the term “Christmas in July.” I don’t know why, I just do.

Maybe it’s because I don’t want to think about Christmas while we are in July.

I don’t want to remember the snow that usually comes that time of year, which in turn makes me think of my astronomical heating bill.

I don’t want to think about the Christmas music local radio stations will probably begin playing in August this year

And so on.

Another thing I don’t like is the comic strip “Peanuts,” for reasons I explain here.

But here I am with this bitchin’ Video of the Week that marries Christmas (in July) and Charlie Brown and his pals. It’s seamless and I offer it to you as an early Christmas gift.

Ho. Ho. Ho.
