Feliz Navidad from the Iglesias family ...
One of my favorite holiday traditions has become looking out for my Julio Iglesias Christmas card. Every year I get one from Iglesias, now 65 if you're wondering, and his ridiculously gorgeous stable of children not named Enrique.
I explained the back-story in detail last year, but here's the boiled down version: I interviewed him once, ever since I've been on his Christmas card list.
Here's what the individual kids are looking like this year -- Miguel got a little more Jonas Brother and Rodrigo looks ready for a reality TV show any year now. And, oh, how Guillermo has grown. By comparison, look at the kids last year.
This year, the Iglesias clan gave us a nice new holiday treat -- a family version of "Little Drummer Boy" on CD. No, I haven't listened yet.
Is it wrong that I want Julio Iglesias to adopt me?

Ahhh... the Julio Iglesias Christmas card: my second favorite Mike Oz story.
I forgot what a joy the holidays are.

Dude, that is classy. Hook a brother up with an mp3 of that track, if you can.

...this is one of the coolest running 'backstories' that you do. Brings a smile everytime I think of it.
Feliz Navidad, Oz

That's cool... I would like to have a card I look forward to every year. I get the same group of cards from family... I swear they are all obsessed with glitter!

Bro, now imagine if every "celebrity" were a class act! I'm not saying that they need to be but this is a man who gets it...
Kudos to you man, you're dope... and those around you as well ....
Just remember if/when you leave this small market, I want to be on your text list (LOL)!

Man those kids are gorgeous.
Only you, Mike, would get a card from Mr."To all the girls I've loved before."
Fantastic.
