Warning label prize?

I laughed, then I cried, reading this newsweek.com article about prizes for wacky warning labels

There should be a warning label on my office door: sweater and scarf required for entry!

Frosty the Snowman

As we carpooled to work this morning, [livejournal.com profile] blueeowyn asked why some winter non-Christmas songs stopped getting air-play after Christmas. She gave some examples, like Frosty the Snowman. But I said, of course Frosty's a Christmas song! The cartoon (Rankin and Bass, 1969) has a Santa ex machina ending! Well, my beloved doesn't remember much of the animated version, but she was correct. The actual song doesn't mention anything resembling Christmas.

So why do so many wintry songs get airplay only for Christmas, when winter goes on for another ten weeks?

And now, despite being about a cold topic, some jokes to warm you up!
