A Christmas Carol_Pagoda Style
« on: December 09, 2013, 02:52:50 »
Since it is only Dec 8th and I have heard strains of "White Christmas" 17 times already I am hereby initiating a Christmas Carol rebellion.

I suggest that the first time any of us  hears  "The Twelve Days of Christmas"  we substitute these
alternate lyrics that I have come up with:

On the twelfth day of Christmas
my true love sent to me

not this                                        but this

12 Drummers Drumming         12  valves all seating                     
11 Pipers Piping            11  pan bolts dripping
10 Lords a Leaping            10  liters of lube oil
9 Ladies Dancing             9  layers of waxing
8 Maids a Milking             8  mill-a-meters
7 Swans a Swimming             7  coats a shimmering
6 Geese a Laying             6  green lights staying
5 Golden Rings                5  piston rings
4 Calling Birds                4  fouling plugs
3 French Hens                3  Bosch horns
2 Turtle Doves                2  twisty roads
and a Partridge in a Pear Tree          and a Pagoda on a Par Three

ENJOY!
