A Thing Done Right?

Picked this up via Chuck Z.  It is quite long, but here’s a snippet:

T’was the night before Christmas and all through the Mosque
Not a hajji was stirring, as their houses were tossed.

Blackfive was posting gibberish, his search bar was down,
He’d been drinking all day and was wearing a gown.

Jimbo was smiling, an ear-to-ear affair
He’d just edited his Chrismas video in Yellow underwear.

CV, our CV, was playing Warcraft,
As his mother in law looked at Caro and laughed.

Taco was flying to some Caribbean locale,
Doing barrel rolls in Boeings to the delight of his pals,

Our Carrie was at home alone, once again…
She’s been drinking, as usual, and out with her friends.

Maggie was blotto, the cancer remised,
She knew she was gonna stay wicked pissed.

Marcus was out dropping resumes and job hunting,
Which is hard to do when all you wear is Christmas bunting.

Jacki was packing her apartment (and she’d better)
She’s a plane to catch, to get to warm weather.

All the other milbloggers took time to lament,
The POTUS’ Hawaiian vacation, while breathing words of concern,
Of our troops withdrawals–from the places they’d been sent,
Now Home to an economy in shambles and no way to make rent.

Semi-obscure references for some to be sure,  but the whole piece is priceless.
