Shoppin’ Around For A Christmas Tree
(Parody of Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree
by Brenda Lee)
Shoppin’ around for a Christmas tree
At the grocery parking lot
Every thing over 4 foot 3
Is ‘bout hundred bucks a pop
Schlepin’ around for a Christmas tree
And I still haven’t found a thing
In a trailer I met some drunken’ guy
And we did some haggling
People get that ornamental feelin’ every year,
Mom’s and Dad’s and kids all happy
Till they get their hands all scratched and sappy
Shoppin’ around for Christmas trees
What a crappy holiday
Today they smell so fresh and green
They’ll be dead on Christmas Day
You will get that ornamental feeling every year
When you find a tree that looks real jolly,
If you turn it round, it’s as brown as Charlie’s
Choppin’ down my Christmas tree
In a true old-fashioned way
Toppin’ it off with a Spotted Owl
And make hasty get away
So let me ask you (which is a safe bet on my part, because nine times out of ten, when I write that, no one replies) so let me ask you ……… “Do you send out the Christmas Cards first, or do you wait and see who sends you one, then reply?”
I am of the later. I get one, I answer one. What I get this year, doesn’t necessary preclude my list for the following year.
This year there is an added wrinkle to the 2008 Christmas Card issue. People are asking me “Why don’t you call anymore?” and then mysteriously adding their current area codes, numbers to the card. I suppose they are assuming I have lost their numbers?
Never did that before. I have stopped the telephone traffic because I am not all that convinced that cell phones do not give you brain tumors and I do not have a regular land line telephone. So therefore, I have cut the telephone traffic back to an absolute minimum. Now here is the rub. “Telephone lines run BOTH ways don’t they?”
Strange questions in the age of instant communication eh?
Twin Falls Idaho – Rep. Stephen Hartgen wants to clean up bombastic and rude comments on the Internet with a law requiring people to use real names when posting comments on blogs and news websites. Yeah, good luck on that one. Hartgen calls his plan “a modest proposal,” but some opponents say it would chill the spontaneous exchange of ideas on the Internet.
I love those spontaneous exchanges such as: “You Suck.” “Why don’t you shove this up …..” “If I lived close to you I would shove your head into a wastebasket and then …….” “So you do know how to use a spelling checker?” and my favorite absolute number one comment … “Mom, always liked you better!”
Oh well, you get the drift.
