Twas a week after Christmas
And t’were many long faces
For Santa has fallen
From the dear Chatter’s graces
He and his helper
Got stuck in the wringer
Of work, kids and sickness
So he’d best write a zinger!

It was not forgotten
But with old feeble mind
In this thing we call “life”
It got left behind

But now Santa’s caught up
He’s writing refrains
And he’s got a new helper
She’s a redhead, with brains

Fleck is enjoying
His cute little toddler
She’s growing so fast
He wishes he could bottle’er!

Peggy’s had struggles
Not sure she could beat
But we all know that she’ll
Always land on her feet!

C-kel is shrinking
She Twitters it so
But regardless of size
She’s mad sexy, ya know

David’s another year
Older, we know
Jesus would like back
The twenty he’s owed

TJ had troubles
With lymph nodes a swellin’
And as far as the FWB
She’s kissing and tellin’  ;)

Richard surprised us
With news of a ring
For marriage, we hear
The new year will bring

JRB’s cruising
Around in his yacht
But to date-stamp his photos
He’s yet to be taught

MiT’s bummed that
We voted Obama
He’s now MIA
Must be cryin’ to his momma

SuperDurf also
Made a political fuss
Now she’s missing, too
Maybe they took the same bus!

Jeff’s awful busy
With school, wife and kids
But if he don’t get some nookie
He’ll soon blow his lid

Taz always has
A new hottie in line
To tickle her fancy
Ain’t singlehood fine?!

Phantom has got a
Real fierce recollection
Of the films that he’s seen
Wicked movie collection!

D still does drive-bys
To share with her peeps
Her bird-mommy stories
I can almost hear “cheeps”!

Our dear Canuck Dean
Has the voice of a god
He’s now on iTunes
So upgrade your iPod!

Peanut’s been busy
With two gorgeous daughters
They’re growing up faster
Than we think they ought’er!

Mox’s busy with band stuff
And on the radio air
A good looking new guy
Her life’s going somewhere

Cpher changed his whole look
Lost a bunch of weight
Along came the snippy doc
Family is set now-that’s great

Jen’s brewing her yummy beer
Singing those beautiful songs
A wonderful family at home
For babies to deliver she longs

Santa’s not really sure about
What Raven has been doin’
He does know that a new sibling
For Olivia she is brewin’

Speaking of new life
Now Deek has a boy
He brings her new challenges
and plenty of joy

Sprung has seen many changes
This past year from above
Things will get better soon
Her favorite little people are her love

Our music scholar Stephanie
We didn’t know was so sick
Good wishes we all give
To heal up real quick

OTD just had a birthday
We all wished her so well
Her focus is Alicia
She’s so proud of that’s swell

Out there is our Tixie girl
She’s always on the go
Much like a summer day
A nice person enso!

We miss crazy Kits
More than we can mention
Not been around here much
Work must be her attention

Glory disappeared for a while
Now again posting of late
Mathew must be like 20 now
She’s in love wow that’s great

About 9 months or so ago
IOM’s motor did purr
A baby boy is coming soon
A great mom she’ll be for sure

Sean no longer has to drive to work
He works out of the house
Can he get any work done?
Wish such a cutie for a spouse

A Canadian girl who’s busy
Is our Jessica so dear
Soon on the Ship and Dip Cruise
She’ll be going again this year

Though she lives across the globe
Story keeps us all in the loop
Her tales of travel and signing gigs
We love to get the scoop

How things have changed for Missy
Her love life has begun
Traveling and doing sexy stuff
Lost her V Card-how fun!

Joe comes and goes
We don’t hear much
Not much else to say
Joe please keep in touch

Up north Brantford way
Is our sweet loving Wolfy
Ice fishing or making soaps
With her handsome sweetie

Darlene came back to the chatter
She had been gone for a spell
She spent some time in Massachusetts
And now she needs to get well!

Every year we seem to lose some folks
It is hard to keep track
They might post once in a while
Sometimes they never come back

We haven’t heard from Lindsay or Paige
I do see W-C on the Facebook
Mac does pop in once in a while
We wish they’d all come take a look

A mainstay for years and years
I don’t think Eddie posted all year
Jen told me he is engaged now
That is so great to hear

And who can be sure about
What happened to the Ox
But we know we miss him so
He was crazy like a fox

This poem has come to an end
We hope you liked it
A new year is upon us all
It better not be shit

All we can wish for you
Are good times and much love
For honestly this group right here
All kind of fit like a glove

Adios, Arrivederci
Auf Wiedersehen and Adieu
