Sounds of the season

Yesterday, my mother and I were about to leave for my sister's to exchange and open gifts when she asked whether my sister would have appropriate holiday music.

Norman: I could take the Elvis CD.
She nodded curtly.
Norman: Also, I noticed earlier that their digital cable system has a couple of those channels featuring Sounds of the Season.
Mom (muttering, heading for the door): That's too pansy for me.

I snatched up the Elvis almost as quickly as she had passed severe -- and, in this case, unimpeachable -- judgment before scurrying after her.
