So Many Heroes Died on Christmas Day

The festive season is always a time to be jolly but not so much for some people. While we bring out the pot roast, call friends and family over, then share a movie and wine later on, there are celebrities who were fighting for their lives. Unfortunately, some did not make it through the festivities and it is even worse that they lost their lives on Christmas day. Please help us commemorate our celebrity heroes in this fine tribute courtesy of Steak and Eggs featuring Flashbrowns.

The Christmas holiday is a special time of year
We celebrate but also shed a tear
So many heroes died on Christmas day
A memorial song so their names don't fade away

Merry Ishmas - An Ish Records Music Sampler

In 2001, Ish Records set out to create a Christmas album for the world (about 10 people actually) to hear. In typical Ish form, only 1 Christmas song was actually recorded. The remaining 11 songs have nothing to do with Christmas but releasing an album with just 1 song would be silly, even for Ish's low standards. We invite you to sing along and create your own Christmas versions though, if that's your thing. Otherwise, deal with it.

BREAKING NEWS: PUFF DADDY'S JUSTIN'S EATERY CLOSING ITS DOORS, RUINS CHRISTMAS

The lights went out at Justin's, Sean Combs' popular celebrity restaurant in Atlanta. Known for attracting big-name celebrities, including Santa Claus, its closure has brought some unintended consequences including leaving a void for popular local parking lot shootings, but most importantly, Atlanta's best lasagna will need to be found elsewhere. Justin's lasagna was known to be a popular choice for Santa, who always made his annual pilgrimage to Justin's during every Christmas season, sometimes eating up to 12lbs of the Italian dish known locally as "Justin's Lasagna". With Santa's reliance on a ricotta and tomato sauce fueled Christmas all-nighter, he was forced to find a replacement for Justin's Lasagna.

Mrs. Claus, Santa's wife, tried reaching out to Mr. Combs to get his famous Lasagna recipe but he was busy crafting a new identity. With only baking skills and in a desperate rush, Mrs. Claus attempted to recreate the dish using ingredients she found around the Claus kitchen. The calorie heavy dish led to a sudden weight gain in Santa who has struggled with his weight since taking the job as Father Christmas.

The nearly 600lb Santa took to his sleigh with Rudolph, Santa's lead reindeer, at the helm to deliver gifts this Christmas day only to come crashing down over the city of Atlanta. The crash site was only miles from Justin's in what some are calling an act of revenge against Mr Combs' establishment but initial reports find Santa's weight gain to be the main cause of the Christmas disaster. A spokesman for Father Christmas issued the following statement, "Christmas has been indefinitely canceled for 2015 following Santa's massive weight gain. We will return in 2016."

Christmas comes but only once per year

As traditions go, it wouldn't be another Christmas without some Steak and Eggs. This year is no exception, as they bring you the story of a slam-dunking, hard-driving 6ft 6 Santa. It was only fitting for this basketball saga to be told in an epic 6 minute song filled with the usual brilliant narrative and consummate musicianship that only Steak and Eggs can bring. Merry Christmas.
