    'TWAS THE NIGHT AFTER THANKSGIVING,
    BUT I JUST COULDN'T SLEEP
    I TRIED COUNTING BACKWARDS,
    I TRIED COUNTING SHEEP.

    THE LEFTOVERS BECKONED - THE DARK MEAT AND WHITE
    BUT I FOUGHT THE TEMPTATION WITH ALL OF MY MIGHT
    TOSSING AND TURNING WITH ANTICIPATION
    THE THOUGHT OF A SNACK BECAME INFATUATION.

    SO, I RACED TO THE KITCHEN, FLUNG OPEN THE DOOR
    AND GAZED AT THE FRIDGE, FULL OF GOODIES GALORE.

    GOBBLED UP TURKEY AND BUTTERED POTATOES,
    PICKLES AND CARROTS, BEANS AND TOMATOES.

    I FELT MYSELF SWELLING SO PLUMP AND SO ROUND,
    'TIL ALL OF A SUDDEN, I ROSE OFF THE GROUND.

    I CRASHED THROUGH THE CEILING, FLOATING INTO THE SKY
    WITH A MOUTHFUL OF PUDDING AND A HANDFUL OF PIE.

    BUT, I MANAGED TO YELL AS I SOARED PAST THE TREES....
    HAPPY EATING TO ALL - PASS THE CRANBERRIES, PLEASE.

    MAY YOUR STUFFING BE TASTY, MAY YOUR TURKEY BE PLUMP.
    MAY YOUR POTATOES 'N GRAVY HAVE NARY A LUMP,
    MAY YOUR YAMS BE DELICIOUS, MAY YOUR PIES TAKE THE PRIZE,
    MAY YOUR THANKSGIVING DINNER STAY OFF OF YOUR THIGHS.


    Happy Thanksgiving

      Yum!!!!!

      With the help of <a href=http://www.toadsoft.com>toad</a>*
      here is a quieter version

      'twas the night after thanksgiving,
      but i just couldn't sleep
      i tried counting backwards,
      i tried counting sheep.

      the leftovers beckoned - the dark meat and white
      but i fought the temptation with all of my might
      tossing and turning with anticipation
      the thought of a snack became infatuation.

      so, i raced to the kitchen, flung open the door
      and gazed at the fridge, full of goodies galore.

      gobbled up turkey and buttered potatoes,
      pickles and carrots, beans and tomatoes.

      i felt myself swelling so plump and so round,
      'til all of a sudden, I rose off the ground.

      I crashed through the ceiling, floating into the sky
      with a mouthful of pudding and a handful of pie.

      but, I managed to yell as I soared past the trees....
      happy eating to all - pass the cranberries, please.

      may your stuffing be tasty, may your turkey be plump.
      may your potatoes 'n gravy have nary a lump,
      may your yams be delicious, may your pies take the prize,
      may your thanksgiving dinner stay off of your thighs.

        Great poem Joel. Man I want turkey.
        (Byock's safe this round)

        Our thanksgiving was last month, damn. Why do people usually only do Turkey on Thanksgiving and Christmas?


        edit: I forgot. Happy Thanksgiving

            I like Thanksgiving because it means a relatively quiet day on the USD front... still lots of EUR and GBP to worry about though..

            Happy Thanksgiving folks! (isn't it tomorrow though?)
