If you are looking for a short Christmas movie, I recently watched Laurel & Hardy's 1929 film Big Business, which runs about 18 minutes. Laurel and Hardy play Christmas tree salesmen who get into a fight with a customer and end up destroying his house. It's funny!

Watched the 1969 Bond film "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" - the first without Sean Connery, with George Lazenby as 007, his sole screen appearance in the role. Anyway, this is a pretty good Bond film that distinguishes itself by ending on a tragic note. There are some great stunts in this one,

The death of Jimmy Cliff made me remember the time, I think in 1995, that I hiked New Hampshire's Mount Washington with some friends.
It was a rainy day, and when we got above treeline, we encountered dense fog that stayed with us until the summit. Visibility was very limited.
