an east coast christmas is just so much more…snowy.
p.s. bill is a c-r-e-e-p.
What a delightful reminder of the beauty of NYC during the holidays! My favorite part was the model train layout — amazing! Happy Holy Days to the crew at Rocketboom!
Merry Christmas!!! Great close for a casual Friday. Now it is off the the Tiki Bar!!!
Such a nice little movie. Merry Christmas/Hanukah/Kwanzaa 2 everyone & peace to y’all!
Very nice Friday/Christmas vlog…warm, fuzzy and fine. Rocketboom has been my daily pleasure and inspiration for the last few months…please continue through 2006! Thanks to you both! And, Happy Holiday’s too. Darryl and Aizhan
so here’s the thing. constantinople was never really the legitimate home of the roman soul. i mean, really - who ever heard of a real roman kicking the dust off his freshly-lacquered sandals in a place called Byzantium? wasn’t that for those pagans from the near east anyway? and what’s up with a 7 year old son-of-a-spaniard thinking he could rule a overdressed city like constantinople in the first place??? geesch, you’d think this board would be populated with brigh…
oh, sorry. i thot i was in the “ICLAUDISBOOMIUS” vlog.
amanda - VERY nice montage of a lost little girl wacking out in the middle of the constantinople of the new world in the eve of our crassest religious-cum-commerce celebration…
Another troubling instance of the unbridled left-wing bias in which this appalling vlog glories.
But wasn’t it pretty?
Wheels Amanda, and a very Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Jesus is the reason for the season. I like the music.Nice miniture village. I thought that was real at first glance. Amanda does like to have fun. Looking forward to RB in 2006. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Dear Amanda and Drew,
Thanks for all you do, and Merry, Merry Christmas.
Love Marius
ps
Love the ‘Manda-cam. :-)
Frohe Weihnachten
Woody Allen probably woulda skipped the FAO/Big/Piano sequence, but otherwise it could have been his two weeks into a new valium prescription. Enjoyable romp. Go Blue!
All the best in 2006!
Amanda and Drew,
Wow! This makes Christmas in Atlanta look like crap. Great, great show today. Makes me want to travel up to NYC for the holidays. And firing at me all the different holidays scared me at the end… please don’t do any of that again.
Merry _________!
David Allen
I like that post best! Thanks and have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Happy Chrismahanakwanzakah!
Yo, Mr. Jesus Lives:
Jesus is not the reason for the season.
The tilt of the earth in its orbit around the sun is the reason for the season.
Yours in science,

Beautiful, beautiful,beautiful.
God I love Casual Friday

Happy merryhallohanakwanzistmas Year!
For some reason I missed a lot of the christmas feeling this year due to too much stress with my clients.
Seeing this and the christmas fair here in Aachen tonight with all the lights makes it a little more christmas again! :-)
Merry Christmas or whatever you celebrate :-)
PS: Great music selection!
Another great vlog…perfect for the Holidays. Thanks for your originality and fun!
Just Wonderful!!!

Dear Amanda & Drew,
Wow - that brought back nice memories of my visit to NYC earlier this year. Thanks for sharing the NYC Christmas feeling with us! From Amsterdam, best wishes to you all!
I know this is published to everyone in the world. But MERRY CHRISTMAS! Because the USA is based on Christianity. So There, MERRRRY CHRISTMAS…HO-HOOOO—Hooo-Ho.
2nd post…
I’m sort of sad that I don’t live in new york. So much to do there, you can just walk around and have fun. Stupid Oregon doesn’t have anything like that… :( Nothing interesting, nothing tech, nothing fun.
Drew and Amanda,
Thanks for the cheerful video. I love my t-shirt! Have a nice holiday break.
Very cool vlog, sure beats the crap out of Fresno, except for that Pay Phone on the outskirts of town, “Classic Fresno”.
Loved the train layout, never would have seen it if it were’nt for you guys. Don’t you ever leave Amanda, because you are the Boom in ROCKETBOOM.
Have an awesome 2006!!
And Merry Christmas to all of you who entertain us daily.

Happy Holidays Amanda and Rocketboom crew! Thanks for another fascinating, intelligent, entertaining year. You guys rock!
This makes me miss New York, even when it’s 78 degrees and sunny here in L.A.!

I’ve just known about this blog. It’s so nice! Merry Christmas from Spain.
¡Feliz Navidad!
Merry Christmas Rocketboom!!!

Hey…to whom it may concern…today is December 24th…no VLOG today, what the fizzuck? Just kiddin! In all seriousness…Amanda do you ever read email that is sent to ya? I went to your site and emailed ya and well, I do know it is like Christmas and like everyone’s busy but did ya ever check your email and if ya did what is your email address? And another complaint…I love the site, except your comments section…callme simple but I hate the fact that I have to check out coinciding days for the coinciding comments…just an idea, a comment page that is continual? Or am I just being an arseholey?
Meanwhile on the other side of the world…I had to tell ya something…recently while at The Rockefeller Center rink, My woman & I had a blast! So romantic, meanwhile as our time was up…I was saying, “Hey one more go (a)round!” So I was trying to show off and go fast…right in that little rink with like a thousand people in that tiny place with around what 5 thousand people in that little space…where was I know, yeah so halfway round my last, my skate hit a crack in the ice and up then inevitably down I went! Moral of the story: Let me know when ya figure it out!
Amanda and Rocketboom, I recently became addicted, and I miss ya today!
Best Regards,
“You eat it!”

I enjoyed your Christmas train so much I decided to share our Hanukkah train with you.
http://stonefacevloggers.blogspot.com/2005/12/hanukkah-train.html
I ran into your site when I was doing research for an essay. Now I can’t say I never learned anything cool in college. You’ve got a sweet show.
merry merry christmas,thanks*you
Maybe everyone missed this but: the tenor of the Christmas piece seemed clouded by the recent Transit Strike. The empy sidewalks,normally crowded with people, the stream of just taxis whizzing by in the background, the empty store plazas, the lonely plazas, displays-emptiness and the amazing choice of a transcribed Tchaikovsky piece with that minor key muted trombone that truly captured this feeling. There was not sadness in the beginning of this, but disappointment that New York couldn’t be New York at Christmas even though there was Christmas being offered everywhere for anyone who could get there to see it. I. Now go back and watch it again from that perspective and you will see what I mean. t was a beauful piece all the way through that told a great story. Masterful work.
That was simply lovely…Christmas in NYC! I’ve been in bed with the dreaded cold and have been “quarantined” since Friday, so it is kind of a quiet Christmas for me. Thank you–this really cheered me up! 8-)
Holly jolly merry berry ho ho ho!
Have a great holiday, Drew and Amanda!
Cheers,
Connie Crosby
As a Guy from a small town on the Canadian Prairies New York is usually thought of as a gritty, gang filled, CSI episode. You portrayed it as a much nicer, more pleasant place. Looks like I need to add it to my list of places to visit.
