Quiet Christmas .

I'm dreaming of a quiet Christmas , Just like the ones , I'll never know With no children screechin Or pastor preachin Of where all sinners surely go ..... I'm dreaming of a quiet Christmas With every cheque , Im tryin' to write . But , then Lehman Sisters took flight , Hopeing Citigroup , can get it right . ( 2 ) Now I'm dreaming of a quiet Christmas . I pulled a "cracker " , late last night . She was sent from heaven Aged twenty seven . With "stats", for which Miss World , would fight . Yes , I'm scheming for a quiet Christmas . Told Santa Claus , I'll be off-line . Hope my yuletide passion is fine , And I'll make it thro' to zero-nine ... =================+======================= With apologies to Irving & Bing ( That's Crosby !!! NOT Chandler )... To be entered in John's Christmas song " what-not "....

I skipped Halloween, I bypassed Thanksgiving and with a little bit of freaking luck maybe I can dodge Christmas. I am in a bah humbug mood, so I can relate to this poem. Well done. Love Heidie

LOL. Absolutely excellent, Sean. That's going to knock mine out of the water! Nonetheless, in true competitive spirit, I will point you in the direction of my Bugs in our soup blog, because you can enter contests from there while these glitches persist. Good luck mate. Nigel
