Panazz also played a few Christmas tunes in expectation of the upcoming season. They have a Christmas album out of traditional Christmas songs done calypso style. They played an upbeat version of "Silver Bells" and "Gloria in Excelsis" combined with "Merry Christmas Everyone." They also covered "When You Wish Upon a Star," which was added to their repertoire after performing their annual gig at Walt Disney World's Epcot Center, where they do 60 shows in two weeks.

We cannot even sympathize with Gloria as a possible victim of Karl's desires. Appelfeld never tells us if Gloria returns Karl's love, and in the end she comes off as being simply weak. Strangely, Gloria possesses an almost robotic tendency to observe the Jewish traditions she learned while living with Karl's parents, though...
...Gloria Buffonge and Thomasin Guenard, who both ran on the same ticket as Landau and Williams, were elected vice president and secretary respectively...
