    Default 'Twas the Night Before Christmas

    'Twas the night before Christmas when all through the Guild
    All the forums went silent, all threads had been filled.

    The noobies had posted their queries on the forums with care
    In hopes that Lords Martok or Caravel soon would be there

    And Mithrandir was nestled all snug in his bed
    While visions of camels danced through his head

    And Sasaki in his 'kerchief and Tamur in his cap
    Had both downed their modems for their Christmas eve naps

    When out in the Entrance Hall there rose such a clatter
    I sprang to my keyboard to see what was the matter

    And away from my desktop I flew double quick
    I frantically gave my mouse a quick click

    I nearly recoiled from my monitor in fear
    For I suddenly beheld a sleigh and reindeer!

    And a little old driver - so spritely was he
    Faster indeed than Steppe Cavalry

    He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work
    He filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk

    And laying a finger aside his red nose
    He gave a small nod and up the chimney he rose

    And I heard him exclaim, ere he rode out of sight
    "Merry Christmas to all at the Guild and good night!"

    Merry Christmas to all here at the Guild - apologies that I could work but a few of the ever helpful org members and mods into this sad little parody of a Christmas rhyme - sort of a spur of the moment thing.

    Many thanks to all who have made this year at the org so enjoyable and informative - Kavhan Isbul, Macsen Rufus, Innocentius, Don Corleone - there are too many to name all of you individually...sincere apologies to those I have not specifically identified!

    Catch you soon!

    What a hoot bamff, very nice. I often picture Mithrandir dreaming about camels. Merry Christmas everyone, or Happy Christmas to those who find Merry Christmas odd-sounding.
