With apologies to all my Australian friends and family and to Paula and Andrew. I stole this from our conversation—thanks to the koala in the Christmas Tree incident—and ran with it....mwah ha ha! Unfortunately, as it turns out, I decided the koala wasn't deadly enough, and I also forgot half the scansion we had at the time. But as the twelve days of Christmas are looming...here's a bit of deadly fun. :) Enjoy.
