Array ( [sid] => 139390 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The Morn' Before Christmas (Part 1) [time] => 2007-12-25 04:59:55 [hometext] => By Craig Chirinda [bodytext] => T'was the morn’ before Christmas; just after dawn.
Watching Bush on my Plasma-screen; I felt I needed to yawn.
I peered out of my window; to admire my artificial English lawn.
Before I could do anything; I was interrupted by my stupid cursed phone!
I picked it hurriedly; as I really wanted to be left alone.


On the phone was my damsel Susanna; sounding musical with fright.
She said something about her dryer: about it not working right.
T'was her hair dryer; it had just exploded with great might.
"My jet-black hair is gone,” she said. "There is not a single lock left in sight"
"Oh!" I gasped "Why did this have to happen before tonight?"


I tried to console her; but the woman had certainly gone mad.
I said I would buy her the best wig; she said she wanted me dead.
I said “Maybe the bald head looks stylish; maybe it didn’t at all look bad”
But my talking didn’t help; it only made her angry and sad.
Surely this had to be some hallucination; was it a dream in my blessed head?


We were going out that evening; to the annual Charity ball
The ball was going to be close to the newly built Trump mall
I told her I would figure something out; later I was going to call.
I started thinking hard; until my head felt like it was starting roll.
If I glued a wig to her head; would it stay put and not fall?
