You need a different sort of help if the birds and mice are talking to you. The number of people the Zoo Crew have sent to institutions... I don't know. It would be a disgrace if that wasn't a different thread.

It has been a few years since the last Rookery Holiday Party. We need it this year.
Please drop by as you can for some holiday cheer. The party runs till Twelfth Night, January 5th, the anniversary of the birth of Hyvvie the Wonder Beagle (of Blessed Memory).
My consort, Jorj Zeddle, and I are at your disposal. The scantily-clad waitstaff are here to fulfill your needs. Please, eat, drink, and be merry.

Not at all, Thoth, please make yourself comfortable and one of the scantily-clad waitstaff will fetch you a libation and some comestibles.

<hears announcement from stage>
Christmas karaoke? I'm up!
<teleports on stage>
This one's my favorite! It's called, "Christmas (Baby Please Come)"!
They're singing "Deck the Halls"
But it's not like Christmas at all
I remember when you were here
And all the fun we had last year...
Still "Lardy" to my friends!

Bravo, Lardy!
Now here's mine. You probably know it in English as "O Holy Night," but the original French is much more profound:
Minuit, chretiens,
C'est l'heure solennelle
Ou l'Homme Dieu descendit jusqu'a nous
Pour effacer la tache originelle
Et de son pere arreter le courroux.
Le mode entier tressaille d'esperance
En cette nuit qui lui donne un sauveur.
Peuple a genoux,
Attends ta delivrance!
Noel! Noel!
Voici le Redempteur!
Noel! Nole!
Voici le Redempteur!

Good Evening. It's been too long, Rocky. I brought some vegetarian Mu Shu "pork" for the buffet... a personal tradition of my own. Lucky House is always worth a parsec's drive out of the way, even during the holiday rush. Please try it while the pancakes are still fresh and hot. Paladin, you haven't aged a day since I saw you last. Oh, and I brought a special gift for dear Ann. I should place it under the tree before I forget. It's a MANOS-- The Hands of Fate T-Shirt!!

Thank you, LWG. That sounds delicious. Let me get the attention of one of our comely, scantily-clad waitstaff to get you a libation.

Wow! I've never seen someone drink a piano. And so early in the evening.

I've never seen a piano made out of alcoholic beverages before, either. I think Rocky may have frozen some vodka or something.

Splendid! More familiar faces. It's been too long. You all must try this mulled cider. It's absolutely delightful. Ann, as soon as I saw that, I just knew you'd love it.

Those cooking aromas...  I'm getting a bit restless waiting in the buffet line right now. I don't mind telling you. Someone get over here quick and distract me with a good story!

Once upon a time, there were three princesses. Only one of them, the youngest, was brave enough to go on a quest for the Golden Rose...

Seize the moment, Friend! I need to keep my spirits up in case they run out of Ibby's amazing-sounding mac dish before I can get there.
