Meanwhile, in case you missed it, here's how the last seven days looked at SteynOnline...
~ Mark's take on a Christmas classic that's surprisingly versatile was our Sunday Song of the Week.
~ In Monday's column, Mark reacted to the terrorist attack targeting Jews on Bondi Beach in Australia. It was our most read article of the week.
~ On Tuesday, Mark observed there's a lot of "randomness" about from Bondi to Brown and points in between.
~ Mark was back behind the Clubland Q&A microphone on Wednesday fielding questions from Mark Steyn Club members live around the planet on the potential war with Venezuela, the bungled investigation at Brown University, and Mark's predictions for the future.
Plus, Mark talked about what he'd like for Christmas and gave a bit of a preview of our annual Christmas Eve Lessons and Carols here at SteynOnline. In case you missed it, here's the action replay.
~ In this week's edition of Laura's Links, Laura wished a Happy Chanukah to all our Jewish readers throughout the world and shared her excellent round-up of links.
~ On Friday Mark examined the road from Rhode Island to Massachusetts that terminated in New Hampshire.
~ This week's edition of Mark Steyn on the Town is our Christmas show - an extended seasonal visit to our Café Continental featuring Yuletide classics from the steppes of Russia to the streets of Paris - and with some old friends dropping in along the way.
~ Later Rick McGinnis reviewed Ginger Rogers in "I'll Be Seeing You" (1944).
A new week begins later today with Steyn's Song of the Week at Serenade Radio at 5:30pm GMT/ 12:30pm ET.
