I warned Gary this would happen. He's already given in to the Reep/Turkey. After the Reep/Wreath or Reep/Santa what's next? Reep/New Year's Baby? Reep/Cupid? Reep/Washington/Lincoln? Just create one, morphing through the major holidays and call it quits.

All of your work is exquisite, but this one truly shows the boundless extent of your artistry. The understated appreciation for your subject matter makes this ditty obviously one of your most beloved.

Those are all wonderful Ideas Scott, I hope Gary appreciates all you're doing for him.

Sooooooo I tried to use blanket references to cover many folks at once. The "studs named Matthew" cover Boy w/ UP, Danny Blaine, matlock and probably a few others as well. The SHAKES cocktails was giving a wave to Semi, Vee and the steady customers of that fine establishment and of course the message board for posting was the greatest gift of all from Scooter and Gary! (I had also tried to work the phrase "Gary Smilies" or "Gary Graemlins" into the song but couldn't make it sound good!)
So Danny, you were already intended to be one of the studs named Matthew!
And Kippers, if you have an alternate version you wanna post here I'd love to read it!
Lash, I had figured as much. You aren't really one to leave people out.

WOW! Lash you've really started something here. People seem to be excited for the holidays now. See, it IS a state of mind and heart, and it's not all about the gifts and how much you can spend. This year we have each other, and this unique and magickal place to share.
Scott is still in a sleeping coma from the turkey yesterday, but when he wakes up and goes into LMB Founder Mode, you can bet he will add some more new lyrics to old festive favorites.
Keep it up! I'm going to work on a song too, and I will be laughing as your 'Legion lyrics' will replace old lyrics this season.
