Slightly dark for the season, the video accurately depicts the sort of cloud from whence George is emerging—looking for love and attention during this vulnerable time of year. Unusually sporting facial hair, George dines with friends, projects film, drinks champagne and reflects upon Christmas cards, Blackie the cat, and a variety of distractions to avoid loneliness. George phones his mother, but the line is busy.

A voyage through a California Christmas that begins in the turd-smeared streets of San Francisco and ends in a botanical wonder of ethnic endurance and faith. A journey that incorporates pelicans, palaces, and platters of plenty. A season of joy bloated with the ephemeral gasses of religious fermentation and the iconography of a movie-land Madonna. – George Kuchar

This is a video that celebrates the New Year with a banging of plates and licking of bowls. The viewer gets to witness a house of canned celluloid and the watery vistas of a Bay Area burgh. There is much good cheer and some feline conflict interspersed with a menu of crunchy and mushy edibles for the souls of man and domestic animal. Sit back and digest this bonbon of fluff with a hairball or two. – GK

A holiday video of good cheer and feline ferocity, this annual tradition of videotaped festivities centers on the oriental and occidental tidbits that make the season worthy for bipeds on wheels as they pedal from one calorie laden event to another. Along the way we meet many champs and chumps as they chomp away at the remaining moments of 2003. Ahead lie the lumpy treats of a New Year in need of NutraSweet. – GK
