From the Nice Things Bureau:

1. The Penguins of Madagascar movie is worth your time. I still laugh at a lot of it, though I don't watch it every holiday season or anything.

2. If you need a penguins double feature, pair it with Surf's Up, another animated penguin feature!

3. I am listening to The Pan American Nutcracker Suite by Joe McCarthy's New York Afro Bop Alliance Big Band. Here's a link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AIsvZUGG84

Rather good!

I'm afraid I can't make it. I have an appointment with my pillow, and I'm sure I have to snuggle with my sweetie. You have a good time. A hot take might come in handy at that hour.

"It's seven o'clock, and time for the penguin on top of your television set to explode."

>BOOM<

"How did he know that?"

"It was an inspired guess. And now . . . "

Sorry. Seven o'clock is time to rock. There is nothing else valid at that time. Except perhaps getting a belly full of beer.
