My Life According to Alice Cooper

Using only song names from ONE ARTIST, cleverly answer these questions. Pass it on to 15 people you like (if you want to) and include me. You can’t use the band I used.

Christmas Spirit Killer

For the very first time ever, Jim decided to make a dish to contribute to our office Xmas party. Jim’s most usual contribution to any office party is something easy like a 2-liter bottle of soda or just a cash donation. Needless to say, we were all skeptical when he insisted that we’d be surprised when he showed up on party day with a homemade Taco Casserole.
