Did you get a lump of coal in your stocking?

[polywideblock]

do you have to watch out for the krampus  ?

[dyslexic teddybear]

looks like a friendly guy....right?

[polywideblock]

does it pay to be "nice " ?

[dyslexic teddybear]

perhaps it would pay....to not urinate him off?

[DeltaV]

How much would it pay?

[polywideblock]

what is a life worth ?

[dyslexic teddybear]

I am quite fond of mine, would not others feel the same of their own?

[polywideblock]

aren't you going to go quietly ?

[DeltaV]

Aren't there better choices?

[polywideblock]

kicking and screaming ?

[dyslexic teddybear]

 So resistance is not futile?

[polywideblock]

don't they say "do not go gently into the night"  ?

[dyslexic teddybear]

Seems good advice, doesn't it?

[DeltaV]

Does it help to speak softly, and carry a big stick?

[dyslexic teddybear]

Isn't that always good advise?

[polywideblock]

is the big stick heavy to carry ?

[dyslexic teddybear]

perhaps only as heavy as it needs to be for the right effect?

[DeltaV]

Does it come to a sharp point on one end?

[dyslexic teddybear]

Do you want to stick someone with a pointy end?

[DeltaV]

Isn't thrust and poke the better defensive measure?

[dyslexic teddybear]

could it be the big stick is to intimidate?

[polywideblock]

isn't thrust and poke offensive ?

[dyslexic teddybear]

would depend on who was thrusting and who was getting poked wouldn't it?

[polywideblock]

could you just thrust and poke thin air ?
