The Site Before Christmas

Special Interactive DallasNews.com Highlights of 2006
(w/massive apologies to Clement Clarke Moore)

Twas the site before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a machine was stirring, not even

A CHAINSAW

The stockings were hung, but THAT'S NOT MY SHOE






someone said

DISMANTLING THE BOMB

with little fear and no dread

BEST IN DOUGH
was there, with a recipe list

GRAPE EXPECTATIONS
made it, too,

As did
4949 SWISS


RIDING WITH PHYLLIS
brought a tear to the eye,

As did
FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHTS
(if you count the guy
in the ring slamming his opponent with an ironing board)

3,650 DAYS IN TEXAS
wrapped up a decade,

And
HISTORY ON THE HILLTOP
won’t fade

TO TOUCH AN ANGEL
lives on,

And
SCHOOL OF SANTA
made the grade

But I heard
HENRYETTA’S HERO
exclaim, ere he drove out of sight,
“Happy
BANDWITH.29.1
to all, AND to all a good night!”
