Lil Bad Wolf | See also Walt

Monday, July 30th, 2007

Li’l Bad Wolf (or just Li’l Wolf as referred to by his friends) is a fictional character created for The Walt Disney Company. He appeared quite frequently in Walt Disney’s Comics and Stories. In spite of his name, Li’l Bad Wolf is a good little wolf whose father is Zeke Wolf, Disney’s version of the Big Bad Wolf from The Three Little Pigs and Little Red Riding Hood. The Big Bad Wolf wants his son to be just as bad as he is but he cannot seem to do it. Worse for him, Lil Bad Wolf’s best friends are the Three Little Pigs themselves, and he constantly saves them from his father’s appetite. Lil Bad Wolf has appeared in more issues of Walt Disney’s Comics and Stories than any other character except for Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck.

Li’l Bad Wolf’s first animated appearance was in the Raw Toonage short “The Porker’s Court”. However, he later appeared, in a more traditional role, in a self-titled short on House of Mouse. The voice for the animated Li’l Bad Wolf in House of Mouse was provided by Andrew Lawrence. Li’l Wolf is not to be confused with the Three Little Wolves, Big Bad Wolf’s three malicious sons who appeared in the cartoon shorts Three Little Wolves and The Practical Pig.

Lil Bad Wolf has appeared in different Disney anthology comic books as well as Walt Disney’s Comics and Stories.

Another Rock N’ Roll Christmas | Christmas

Monday, July 30th, 2007

“Another Rock N’ Roll Christmas” is a popular 1984 Christmas song by Gary Glitter.

The song is about the fun of Christmas and refers to Rock and Roll music throughout, examples being the lyrics “You’ll be rocking in your stocking” and “Come on, Rock and Roll for old St. Nick“. The song sold very well, hitting the Top 10 in the UK Singles Chart, becoming Glitter’s most successful song since 1975. Though he was still touring regularly when the song came out, Glitter has often credited “Another Rock N’ Roll Christmas” as a song that gave him a huge resurgence in popularity.

The song was included on the album Boys Will Be Boys, issued in 1985 and was reissued many times, both as a single (including a collectors picture disc) and on other albums.

The track was one of the most played Christmas songs in the UK for many years and is still played today, though not as heavily, following Glitter’s conviction for possessing child pornography.

Spritzgebäck | Christmas themed Wishes

Friday, July 27th, 2007

A spritzgebäck is a type of German Christmas cookie. They are relatively easy to make and require only common ingredients, including eggs, butter, sugar, and flour. When made correctly, they are crisp, fragile, somewhat dry, and buttery.

Spritzgebäck is a common pastry in Germany and served often during Christmas time. During this time, it is not unusual for mothers to spend the afternoons baking with their children for one or two weeks. Traditionally, mothers bake Spritzgebäck after their own special recipes, which they pass down to their children.
