Santa,
If you're listening, I would really like someone to come and take the life size headless statue of the Sacred Heart out of my backyard. Caught a neighbor taking pictures.

Hallooo. Santa? Are you there?

I've been as good as I'm ever going to be this year - don't listen to the nasty rumours started by SINSULL and Ranger1. I even let some woman out of a side road when I was driving the other day - it don't get much gooder than that!

OK, I was ready to kill in the Christmas Tree Shop this morning, but that was justified. This is MAINE, for God's sake. Where do all those people come from!!!! There were more people in that shop this morning than live in the whole state, honest!

Um, Santa? Are you out there? I've been fairly well-behaved this year, even if I have been spending rather a lot of time with SINSULL and jacqui lately. So are the pony and the rocket launcher still available?

Ho tumblethump brandy-butter crack!
(Are you all wight–Jack?)
You peppermint Demeter
With dragons a knack
cigarettes, whisky, ex Dubbers and beer
Songs of landlubbers massage your ole'ear
No sense of direction
But song and affection
Who needs a map?
When life's in your lap!

"Never give up singing, the human voice is the best and most portable of instruments there is"

Wise words, wise woman, are you wise to me?

your extremely secret

Thank you Jaze for those hints, you have several elves very happy little chappies, they know which shelves of Santa's Big Cupboard contain the right goodies. Now they can get off their little bums and get to work before I sack them all. All they have done today is drink Guinness and tease the reindeer.

I'm sure you remember the song "Bewitched, bothered and bewildered" - just think of me as "Bedazed, Bedazzled and Bedazzling".

Dear jenn, Good girl. Passed the first test. You know all about the lemon juice thing.
About the present - "Sad Sweet Songs of the Armadillo in Love" should be just the thing. Now! Where to find a copy? Might have to write it myself. Failing that a local songbook? Ah! ha! a trick! a trick! I'm not going to tell you what "local" is. Not even if you cover me with lemon juice and hold a match to me.
But seriously now - a local songbook?
Oh happiness! SS of jenn of the brooks

Oooooooooh! I have a Santa. Yes the hints are pretty much as per 2005. Alas I am no longer working in a library (having succumbed to the great lets make librarians redundant fiasco) so I'm flogging library software instead!!!!!! heh heh heh.

Still have a book allergy unless it's the sort with dots in or alternatively with footprints in (dance notation for the confused).

I will now do my best to BE GOOD but I'm not that hopeful since it appears I will be spending 2 work related weeks in Scotland! Hic Hic Hic

Thankyouuuuuu Santa

To my dear Secret Santa,

I am, I am glad you're my secret Santa! For obviously you understand the importance of armadillos in my humdrum daily life! At the risk of sounding selfish and self centered, though, may I say what I forgot to say, which is that songbooks are also always welcome. As well as being easier to ship. Usually.

I tired lemon juice and holding a match up to the computer screen, but I couldn't make the invisible ink show up. Still, I do look forward to hearing from you.

I am the very model of a goofy mudcat Santa Claus
I want to send you prezzies, cards and stuff that will not make you cross
To do so tell me what you like because in that realm you're the boss
Art, music, books and videos—or maybe some spaghetti sauce?

I can send you rap or bluegrass, madrigals or ballads, blues or bop,
Celtic harp or classical, or jazz or perhaps some hip-hop?
Dylan, Rolling Stones, Kate Rusby, John Renbourne or Beethoven.
All you have to do is ask: Ho ho ho—let the games begin!

Ah ha! My message got lost somehow. It went like this - Oh Goody Oh Goody Oh Goody Oh Goody Oh Goody I've got a wonderful Santee. Off to look for the rare dark green, beaded armadillo + crate for posting. Or was that bearded? No! it's beaded alright. Just the thing. Maybe I'll throw in a book or two - "The Mystery of the Dark Green Beaded Armadillo". "101 Ways to Cook Dark Green Beaded Armadillos". "Knit Yourself a Dark Green Beaded Armadillo". This is going to be such fun. You'll be glad I'm you Secret Santa, jennbrooks.
