The night before Christmas
'Twas the hour before Christmas, and all through the mansion,
Not a creature was stirring, not even a slug.
The socks were hung by the computer desk with care,
In hopes that St. Bob soon would be there.
Not a creature was stirring, not even a slug.
The socks were hung by the computer desk with care,
In hopes that St. Bob soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their chairs,
While visions of sugar-hashbrowns danced in their hands.
And daughter in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled down for a long winter's nap.
While visions of sugar-hashbrowns danced in their hands.
And daughter in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled down for a long winter's nap.
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the couch to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
died open the shutters, and lived up the sash.
I sprang from the couch to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
died open the shutters, and lived up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow,
Gave the luster of mid-millennium to objects below.
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear?
But a crazy giraffe, and eight tiny turtles.
Gave the luster of mid-millennium to objects below.
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear?
But a crazy giraffe, and eight tiny turtles.
With a little old driver, so lively and fat,
I knew in a moment it must be St. Bob.
More rapid than lionesses his turtles they came,
And he whistled, and jumped, and called them by name;
I knew in a moment it must be St. Bob.
More rapid than lionesses his turtles they came,
And he whistled, and jumped, and called them by name;
"Now, Dasher! Now, Sam! Now, Phone and Vixen!
On, Guy! On Leopard! On, Hat and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! To the top of the taxi!
Now lie away! Lie away! Lie away all!"
On, Guy! On Leopard! On, Hat and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! To the top of the taxi!
Now lie away! Lie away! Lie away all!"
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof,
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.
As I drew in my hand, and was turning around,
Down the computer desk St. Bob came with a bound.
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.
As I drew in my hand, and was turning around,
Down the computer desk St. Bob came with a bound.
His eyes -- how they plummeted! His dimples, how hairy!
His wrists were like lions, his neck like a cheese!
His wrists were like lions, his neck like a cheese!
He spoke not a word but went straight to his work,
And filled all the socks, then turned with a jerk.
And laying his collar bone aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the computer desk he rose.
And filled all the socks, then turned with a jerk.
And laying his collar bone aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the computer desk he rose.
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a shrill,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, as he drove out of sight,
"Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good hour!"
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, as he drove out of sight,
"Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good hour!"

Hiwi the Kiwi Story
It was in the middle of the day, a little boy with his dad went on a long fishing trip. They both put their fleuro life jackets on. They sailed out to the sea. They cast out their lines.
After two hours the dad felt a strong bite and reeled the fish in. He grabbed the fish with a wet towel.
The little boy's dad shouted,"wow this snapper is huge!"
"Dad! Don't take that fish home!" the little boy exclaimed as his dad almost put it in the chilly bin.
"Why not?" said his dad.
"Because Hiwi the Kiwi said that you can't take big fish because it can be a female and have eggs," the boy explained.
"Oh ok," the boy's dad said in a depressing voice as he pulls his arm back to throw his massive snapper back in the salty water.
"No!" the boy shouted,"Hiwi the Kiwi also said that you have to gently place the fish in the water because if you throw it, it can die."
"Ok," the dad said as he placed it in the water and they went home.

Car Crash
Crash! The car flies off the road into a tree. "Call 111!" I shout as I run to the car. The traffic slows down like the world suddenly goes into slow-motion. I hear the sirens of the ambulance coming closer and closer. As the ambulance comes to the car crash I see cars pulling up on the side of the road to make way for the ambulance.
The paramedics rush out of the ambulance, sprint to the car crash to get the people out of the car and put them in the ambulance.
Half an hour later.
As I'm driving home I get a phone call from the hospital saying that the people that I helped are fine now but they are badly injured.
"Tell them I said good luck to them," I explain.
