The Month before Christmas!
‘Twas the month before Christmas
When all through our land,
Not a Christian was praying
Nor taking a stand.
See the PC Police had taken away,
The reason for Christmas – No one could say.
The children were told by their schools not to sing,
About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.
It might hurt people’s feelings, the teachers would say
December 25th is just a ” Holiday .”
Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit
Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!
CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-pod
Something was changing, something quite odd!
Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa
In hopes to sell books by Franken &Fonda.
As Targets were hanging their trees upside down
At Lowe’s the word Christmas – was nowhere to be found.
At K-Mart and Staples and Penny’s and Sears
You won’t hear the word Christmas; it won’t touch your ears.
Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-is-ty
Are words that were used to intimidate me.
Now Daschle, Now Durbin, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen
On Boxer, on Reed, on Kerry, on Clinton !
At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter
To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.
And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith
Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace.
The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded
The reason for the season, stopped before it started.
So as you celebrate “Winter Break” under your “Dream Tree”
Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.&t;BR>
Choose your words carefully, choose what you sayShout MERRY CHRISTMAS, not Happy Holiday!

I remember reading an adaptation with Santa coming to where a marine was sleeping. I know I’ll get it again soon. I’ll put it up when I do.Tom
December 4, 2006 at 10:27 am #10719Andy GravesKeymasterI always wondered why retailers were so afraid to call it Christmas. Isn’t that what it is?
December 4, 2006 at 10:53 am #10720John CristinaMemberFor the people that do not believe in Christmas, why should I have to give them a paid holiday. Should they not work a normal schedule as it is just another day to them?
Just wondering
John
December 4, 2006 at 10:58 am #10721livemottMemberHey Jcristina, that was not me hanging out at the Steak & Shake down your way last week but thanks for informing me that FEDSAWCHUCK was once again, filling out his 300# frame on company time… 🙂

Sounds fair, but wouldn’t that mean you would have to go in to work also? Or at minimum you would have to have your cell phone by your side.
December 4, 2006 at 12:00 pm #10725josh oakleyMemberTwas the night before Christmas, and all through the shop,
Not a fabricator was building,
Not even one top.
When all of a sudden you heard a slight hum,
And out came Tom Mather with a bottle of rum.
hehehehehehehehehehehe
December 4, 2006 at 12:25 pm #10726Tom MMemberThe radio was playing christmas songs by Clapton,
Tom rested his leg – just like “The Captain”.
The shop lads all looked and gave a guffaw,
For Tom’s leg was perched on Dave from FedSaw.(back at ya, babe)

December 4, 2006 at 2:29 pm #10734nad8974MemberTwas the night before Christmas and the kids had no candy,
Santa had left it in Cali with his elf Andy.
But low & behold it became a good story,
As the day was saved, by Santas friend Mory.
December 4, 2006 at 4:58 pm #10739Norm WaltersMemberYou missed your calling Dave.
December 4, 2006 at 7:18 pm #10743Ray St GelaisMemberSanta tried and tried but his stuck sleigh just falters,
Till his friend came along, his name was Norm Walters.
Norm twisted and tugged and pulled, what a pain,
Yet he fixed it and away Santa went, to see his elf Shane.
December 4, 2006 at 8:13 pm #10752Andy GravesKeymasterSTOP, my stomach is killing me laughing so hard.
December 4, 2006 at 11:09 pm #10763Shane BarkerMemberSorry Andy I couldn’t help it,
Twas the night before Christmas and all through the night
not a router was running not even a light when Santa heard a rumor and thought
it were true he logged on to the FabNet but no one he knew.
He asked around to meet the one with the wit he said you know the one
the one that sells bits, then Santa was off and he gave us a wave and there
right beside him was fedsawdave.Shane
