Its beginning to look alot like Christmas in NJ…

Somebody in the NJ Pinelands is hanging Christmas ornaments along main roads...


Poem Artwork


Yes, Christmas does to us all approach,

And in NJ no different than the rest,

The world is donning its trees with lights,

In some households over presents there are fights…

 

In southern NJ we rarely get snow,

But when we do it’s a damn big show,

This year so far we had but one big blow,

Now its just as cold as a witches, well you know…

 

Though predicted for tomorrow, no snow,

As usual its going to be rain,

So much so we won’t be able to it drain,

Anybody with an intellectual brain,

Would move right the hell out of NJ,

Giving it right back to the Indians,

Think they’d take it back for a handful of grain…?

Hmmmm not a bad roadside show. Hey we had a tornado here two days ago, made a right mess of the Riverlands...
It's beginning to look a lot like messmass...wot with rooftops being relocated in all.

Ed, I am a gone send you some snow, should actually be there by now,
best you get out there, and hang your balls higher up the tree, so they can dangle freely say three feet high should do it, and get Rufuz some wire mesh skies, so he can go for his pees, and best take a shovel in the house to dig your tunnes out the front door. Bless Ya!

Wouldn't it be nice if the N.J. MAFIA in A.C. donated some SNOW PLOWS to Southern Joisey?

And when they ran out of gas, then the Local YOKELS could TOW THEM with HORSES OR CATTLE, like the FURNENERS did to donated TRACTORS years ago!

JINGLE BELLS, SHOTGUN SHELLS,
SANTA LOST HIS SLEIGH,
BALLS ON TREES SHAKE IN THE BREEZE,
AS THEY COME TO TAKE MATLACK AWAY!

HO-HO-HO ... HOPE YOU GET ALL THE SNOW!

UP ON THE HOUSETOP - CLICK, CLICK, CLICK,
SANTA HAD A WRINKLED OLE .... SUIT !!!
