Sorry, this is regulated to the NYC metro area dopers.  
How many of you Holiday lovers remember the Yule Log shown on Channel 11 on Chrustmas Eve every year.  
I can’t be the only one who misses it. If we get enough responses, perhaps, PERHAPS, we can persuade the WB11 to consider putting it back in what’s probably the most emotion-filled hoiliday season in decades.

The Yule Log!!!

Ah, such fond holiday memories of the family gathered 'round the table, while that tacky 11-minute loop of fireplace magic played continuously.

Now that I have a real fireplace, I settle for a DuraFlame. 🙂

I usually just go outside and set the woods on fire. Gives us something to do.
