But the ‘story’ certainly has been around emails enough. Never bought it as fact.

Oh and I found you from Dan’s page.

Ya know, I’ve had to stand directly behind stupid, self centered idiots who were holding up the line for a long time this holiday season, and I can safely say that had I been the protagonist in that tune, halfway through the first refrain I’d have said something like this:

“SHUT UP!!!!! Here, this is for the shoes, this is to slip to the nurses so they’ll give Mommy an extra hit of Morphine. Now take your damned shoes and get the hell outta my way, brat!”

There are few things better then the self-satisfaction one gets from being a truly moral human being.

Now, all you children leave your boots by the chimney with oats for Sleipnir so that when Odin comes on his midnight ride, he will leave gifts in them, and have a happy Yuletide!

Hmm. Now it is really a toss-up. Both are intolerable, for entirely different reasons. Tricky.

It’s rated an 11 on the “manipulation of emotions” puke meter.

Happy Christmas to you with lots of non-puke worthy songs of the season!

Funny that you had the same thought on the very same day. This of course means that December 19 should from this day forward be designated “Christmas Shoes Intolerance Day”. It will be a new Christmas tradition.
