'Twas the Night Before Christmas

A few things you might want to know about this Christmas Eve:

WAMU (88.5 FM), the National Public Radio affiliate based at American University, has a nice, old-fashioned lineup tonight for families who want to turn off the boob tube and do Christmas like it's pre-1950. Click here for their full schedule. From 7 p.m. to midnight, they're doing vintage broadcasts, "Christmas Eve Recollections" with Ed Walker. Don't miss Lionel Barrymore and Orson Welles reading "A Christmas Carol" from 11 p.m. to midnight.

Also keep in mind that the outdoor ice skating rink at the National Gallery's Sculpture Garden is open tonight until 11 p.m. Cost is $6 for kids and $7 for adults, plus skate rental.

Wanna track Santa on the official FAA NORAD site? Click here. He's already on his way around the world, heading straight for Washington, DC.
