The Day After Christmas - TubeDude - 12-26-2003
[cool][size 1]Hope everybody had a good Christmas, and that Santy treated you well. Here's something to think about now:[/size]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 1]'Twas the day after Christmas, and all through the house,
Every creature was hurtin', even the mouse.
The toys were all broken, their batteries dead;
Santa passed out, with some ice on his head. [/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 1]Wrapping and ribbons just covered the floor,
While upstairs the family continued to snore.
And I in my T-shirt, new Reeboks and jeans,
I went into the kitchen and started to clean. [/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 1]When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the sink to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the curtains, and threw up the sash. [/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 1]When what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a little white truck, with an oversized mirror.
The driver was smiling, so lively and grand;
The patch on his jacket said "U.S. POSTMAN." [/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 1]With a handful of bills, he grinned like a fox
Then quickly he stuffed them into our mailbox.
Bill after bill, after bill, they still came.
Whistling and shouting he called them by name: [/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 1]"Now Dillard's, now Broadway's, now Penny's and Sears
Here's Robinson's, Levitz's and Target and Mervyn's.
To the tip of your limit, every store, every mall,
Now charge away--charge away--charge away all!" [/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 1]He whooped and he whistled as he finished his work.
He filled up the box, and then turned with a jerk.
He sprang to his truck and he drove down the road,
Driving much faster with just half a load. [/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 1]Then I heard him exclaim with great holiday cheer,
"Enjoy what you got. . . . . .you'll be paying all year!" [/size][/font]

I'm sure glad that my santa claus didn't deal with any plastic this year. It seems like it was more of the lines of fiberglass and graphite. ho ho ho
