    Is it civil war in which we're immersed?
    "I'ts worse!", says Annan, with a curse
    But if they deny it,
    the public will buy it.
    The "Iraq's a threat" lie takes the purse.

    The storm shut down O'Hare last week.
    Just after the Thanksgiving peak.

    The airport's forced diet

    It was nice to hear people speak.

    But, to be blunt
    Friends stab in the front
    Instead of the back or rear end

    A man tried every way to lose weight
    But would not exercise or watch what he ate

    Well, what was he thinking?
    Does thinking cause shrinking?
    I hope he stops taking that bait

    Redecorating's hard when you're frugal
    Thank goodness there's Yahoo and Google

    My motto is, I admit
    "If it ain't broke don't fix it"
    If I'm cheap, well, my name is McDougal

    That 2% percent own half the world's plunder
    Is, to me, a bit of a wonder

    If I thought it hard
    to get my own yard
    How on Earth do the other folks fund 'r?

    It's important to know
    So I'm telling you so
    Now you can go back to bed

    You won't be surprised
    By what I've surmised
    When I say that they can't stand couscous.

    The Invisible Pink Unicorn
    with Holy hooves, tail, ears and horn
    Appeared late last night
    And gave me a fright
    In my side it is always a thorn

    And I still gotta eat
    But too much and we may lose our lives

    I drove through Chicago last Friday
    It started to snow; it wasn't my day
    The City of big shoulders
    Was getting a lot colder
    I'd follow squid south if I had my way

    You can still eat them here
    Though you'll show signs in the rear
    And you're heart will be terribly broken

    I spoke in odd riddles
    The prose spewed in spittles
    The correct choice of words deficient.

    My six year old boy
    Thinks Santa's a ploy
    And revels in sturm und drang

    Just wait a year
    It won't be so dear
    And you'll show the retailers who's boss

    He says "how dumb do you think I am?"

    Well he watched through the night
    And he had a great fright
    When Santa showed with the fresh Christmas ham

    The weather was balmy
    As I lunched on salami
    And rode my bike all afternoon

    I do like it toasty
    But Venus is roasty
    Do politicians care? They give squat

    But should instead he get round
    And lose not a pound
    Of his diet I'm sure he'll be quiet

    Any more than does life
    Or, in a shoe store, my wife
    Where with reason, she will gladly dispense


    The presents are wrapped and under the tree
    Not much more to do - let me see....
