BlogFestivus Day 8: Poisonous Milk

Thomas went into his fridge for some milk.  As he tasted the bitter-watered down milk, he yelled.

“What is this? – This is disgusting!”

He ran towards the barn, to his eight maids a-milking cows, and gave them a piece of his mind.

“Who the hell put the bad milk in the fridge?”

“Not me sir, maybe it was Helen?”

“Helen, was it you?”

They went down the line until they got to Sarah.

“Not me. Maybe it was your wife.”

He went inside to tell his wife.

“Can you believe those stupid turkey-basting evil dumb-as-sticks maids? Blaming you for the bad milk! I’d rather drink horse pee! I bet they were trying to poison me!”

“The milk in the small glass jar babe?”

“Yes.”

“That’s Juniors milk,” she said as she closed the door, “I pumped it this morning. - Try the couch tonight.”

BlogFestivus Day 7: I Like My Coffee Black Just Like My Men

James Stein took his children out for a walk on this unusually warm December day, while their mother was at work late.

They stopped and watched the seven swans a-swimming in the pond behind their home.

“Daddy,” Suzie asked “Why are all those swans white? Do they come in different colors?”

“There are black swans,” James told his daughter.

“That’s my favorite color!” Suzie smiled and said. “Can I have a black swan daddy?”

James smiled at his little princess, “I don’t think people have pet swans honey.”

“I like black nail polish, black shoes, black bags, black men, black…”

“What?” her father interjected.

“What do you know about black men Suz? You’re only 10.” Jay-Jay asked.

“Well mommy always tells the ladies at Starbucks: ‘I like my coffee black just like my men.’ So… so do I!”

Jay-jay laughed at kid sister, “Someone’s in trouble!”

BlogFestivus Day 6: Six Geese A-Laying

“I want to shoot those mother-eff’s,” Ranger Antonio said as he walked through the park. “Isn’t that what they did over there near LaGuardia after the birds caused the pilot to land the plane in the Hudson?”

“Yea, yea. But you know PETA, they’d get naked and start another campaign if we dare try to save this park.”

“That actually sounds like a pretty good idea.”

“I swear, there’s more Canadian geese poop on the ground than there is grass anymore! It’s disgusting. Is there anything we can do about it… Maybe, we can put down some poison?”

“Look over there. Dag-nabit! Six geese a-laying! Where’s your gun?”

“No!” Sergeant Raider yelled.

The ranger quickly pointed the pistol at the first bird, “My wife may appreciate the delicacy of the animal,” he said as he pulled the trigger on the pooping animal.

“Bye-bye birdie.”

BlogFestivus Day 5: Golden Rings and Chicken Wings

10 days until he was home for the Christmas holiday, and there was no food in the fridge at his dorm.

The expiration date had passed but it was the only food left in his freezer.

Barbecue chicken wings and a few onion rings.

The night before he had Ramen soup. The college student’s diet. But tonight he wanted something more… fulfilling.

He placed his frozen food on a tray and put it in the toaster oven, and 25 minutes later he had a plate full of food.

Thick and tasty chicken wings and five golden rings.

20 minutes later he regretted his decision as he let out a chorus – butt tooting songs like a jazz musician and loud moaning, as if he were singing the blues.

“I haven’t sharted in 13 years,” he thought as he looked at his favorite Gap jeans and shook his head in shame.

BlogFestivus Day 4: Four Calling Birds

Four calling birds sang a beautiful song
They sang and they sang all morning long
Started at 6 – the break of dawn
And until the moons sight was finally gone

Their brown wings flapped
And their voices grew stronger
Their little feet pranced
And their notes grew longer

They sang with such glee
As they flew out of the tree
Landed on a window sill
Singing with all of their will

Out of the corner of their eyes something appeared
A man with a rifle, big blue eyes and a beard
The birds kept singing – for they had no fear
It was their favorite season, winter was finally here

Silly calling birds singing a “beautiful” song
See you sang your song a little too long
Four shots, Kaboom! That was the end of you
For waking up Grinch is not the thing you ought to do.

I’m slowly catching up. Next up, Five Golden Rings!!!

BlogFestivus Day 3: The Slaughterhouse in Queens

When I was 14 I had my first boyfriend – Peter Louis.

On the second day of our “relationship” he wrote me a Christmas card, detailing his love for me and calling me his “angel.”

Things began to get strange when my friend Ebony and I saw his family getting out of a green Honda Civic. We counted 13 people.

One day I walked to his house and saw four french hens walking in a line towards his back door. Ebony and I exchanged glances and moved on.

It wasn’t until three days later when I saw three french hens in his backyard that I questioned Peter.

I was a newly converted vegetarian and the thought of slaughtering chickens in a house in Jamaica, Queens was absurd.

Who ever heard of a bird ending a relationship? Peter lasted one week. I can’t say the same for the bird.

BlogFestivus Day 2: Drunken Noah and the Ark

Last Christmas after brunch my uncle began preparing drinks and passed me a glass. As I sipped my apple martini (festive, right?!) my father complained.

“What does the bible say about drinking?” 

I was already prepared for his question.

I had found my answer to that question while reading the bible in my dorm months prior, and I must say it was an eye-opening experience.

I read in Genesis about Noah getting drunk. He was in fact the first known intoxicated man recorded in the bible.

I got up to tell my roommates and poured myself a glass of Merlot.

In my mind Noah began partying the day he sent one, maybe two, turtle doves out to discover if the land was finally dry. When she didn’t return he cracked open his first bottle of wine and got off the ark. Case closed.

BlogFestivus Day 1: The First Day of Christmas

On the first day of Christmas (six days late) my true love sent to me: This story about a poor partridge in a pear tree. 

Boys will be boys,  Tony’s mother accepted that a long time ago.

Snow clung to the branches of a pear tree outside their home, and after a trip to the grocery store Tony had a plan.

One lone brown pear hung from a weak branch 15 feet above the ground.

Tony put on gloves, took out an empty Pepsi bottle and filled it with dry ice, a trick he learned when he was only 9.

Ten minutes later he threw his homemade bomb at the tree, knocking the pear over and exploding in the air, taking a pretty brown bird prisoner as well.

Partridge, 0. Tony, 1.

“What are you doing?” his mother, who was now standing at the front door of their house, asked.

“There was a partridge in a pear tree,” he said, “But he’s in heaven with gam – gam, baby Jesus, and Shiloh now.”

I’m slowly catching up and plan to have the first seven days of Christmas posted by tomorrow afternoon. 

Next up, Two Turtle Doves!!!
