I find myself with a conundrum this holiday season. It happens every year, but this year it's a little different and truly perplexes me. Let me explain. My daughter loves to draw. Loves it. The girl would go through a ream of paper every two weeks if I let her. She has a double-sided easel that we got her two years ago. One side has a blackboard, and the other a clip for attaching a huge pad of paper. See more below.

Nature – "Shark Mountain." What if I told you that there were a bunch of sharks in the waters near Cocos Island which formed kind of a mountain. I'm not saying that's what happened, I'm not saying that at all. The description I have certainly does that as much (honestly, it doesn't). I'm just asking a hypothetical question based on the little bits of information I do have.
9:00 – 11:00PM
Peter and Paul and the Christian Revolution - “The Rock and the River” and "The Empire and the Kingdom." Based on Paul's works and those of other old-school writers along with various scholars, what we have here is a two part documentary which shows how the Christian faith came about. Now, don't get angry with me if you don't like what this has to say, I'm just the messenger.

Antiques Roadshow - “Roadshow Remembers.” Originally airing back in 2006, this retrospective looks back on 10 years of antiques. It's described here as a "trip down memory lane," which I find kind of amusing, because the whole show is sort of a trip down memory lane, not just the retrospective.
9:00 – 10:00PM
Anatomy of a Pandemic. Senior correspondent for PBS Newshour, Ray Suarez, "will report from the front lines of the effort to combat the 2009 H1N1 influenza outbreak." That's right people, the front lines of the war on the flu. While I hope that means that he's going to miniaturize himself and do it Isaac Asimov-style, I'm thinking that it's more history, and interview, and bigger picture-based. Maybe next time.
