Jake strikes a pose - Christmas Interlude

Because I'm not able to do a proper post today, due to having to spend far too many hours in a car, I will leave you for the day with what is quite possibly my very favourite YouTube video of Jake Gyllenhaal. If you can beat it, I'd love to hear how.



I wish everyone everywhere a fabulous Christmas Eve and I hope you can all find time to fit Jake into your day and celebrations. All going well, there'll be a 'normal' post tomorrow. Should anyone fancy a chat, you can find me in the comments :D

Morning WDW and everyone!

I wish a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone.

I think I must have played that video at least 497590729 times. What a Christmas Eve treat. TY :)

Happy holidays, warm toddys and bunny slippers for all!

Last week, someone in choir chal-lenged me to write a Christmas carol. This is like challenging a shark to eat fish ;-) .

So far, I have the beginning and the middle, but I've been too lazy/distracted (mostly the former) to write the concluding verse. Here are the lyrics I have so far:

Once there were shepherds and a flock of woolly sheep.
The angels sang, "In a manger, fast asleep
In Bethelehem is Christ the King.
Oh, shepherds, come! His praises we will sing."

But the shepherds quaked with worry and alarm,
Saying "Too far!
Too young the lambs are,
And if we leave them, they will come to harm!"

I can't send the tune or written score in this post, ufortu-nately....

Pia, I'm listening to and watching the King's carol service right now :) Didn't know you saw it over there :) I always start my Christmas with it ** I liked your quote last night - Hamlet to Prufrock to Lou Reed :D

This vid though, bit of competition or what - a huge, huge, colossal favourite ... so beautiful *

WDW, hope you are safe at your destination, we're in with the neighbours in a while, but talk later!

Hiya WDW and all my fellow Gyllen-worshippers! I've been up to my neck in Christmas chaos for a few days and it's so frustrating that I can't hang around with you all now and wallow in the mega-posts that WDW has so brilliantly compiled ( a quick skim and a swoon at the photos for now,a proper in depth study when things calm down!)

Just HAD to drop in to the best Jake-blog in the world EVER,to say thanks WDW for keeping us so virtually close to Jake all year and to wish all of you a wonderful Christmas and a Healthy and Happy New Year! Lots of love and a big hug to all of you,Nadine xxx

twistedlogic said...

Off to play Santa now! Have a good day everyone xx

I don't think you could have picked a better thing to leave us with, Kate, than the vanity fair shoot. It must have been an honor for Jake to pose for Annie Liebowitz. She has photographed some of the BEST in the business and Jake is certainly in that league.

Thank you WDW for the Vanity Fair clip. Those images are giving me a warm and fuzzy (and a bit tingly) feeling that will last. :) I will have to come back on Wednesday for a thorough reading of all the posts and comments. Unless I can figure out how to clone myself. :D

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone! I will be raising a glass of Stella with good wishes for all of you.
