At West Britain Bank, Trammel, the fabulous Fern Goodfellow was singing her song “Seppo Baby”, which is based on the song “Santa Baby”.  “Santa Baby” was originally recorded in 1953 by Eartha Kitt, but I suspect that Fern was inspired by the Madonna version from 1987.

 

Lyrics to “Seppo Baby”:

 

Seppo, baby, slip a rare pelt under the tree

For me.

Been an awful good girl, Seppo baby,

So hurry down the chimney tonight.

 

Seppo, baby, a diamond-collared unicorn, too —

Light blue!

I’ll wait up for thee, dear Seppo baby

So hurry down my chimney tonight. (*winks*)

 

Think of all the fun I’ve missed.

Think of all the Dread Lords that I haven’t kissed.

Next year I could be oh soooooooooooo good

If thou’d just check my Yuletide list

 

(Boo-boo-be-do)

 

Seppo, honey,want Minoc and well, really that’s — not a lot

Been an angel all year, Seppo baby.

So hurry down my chimney tonight.

 

Seppo, honey, there’s one thing that I really do need — the deed

To a Castle all mine, Seppo baby,

So hurry down my chimney tonight.

 

Come and trim my Yuletide tree

With gems and gold and every fabulosity.

I really do believe in thee.

Let’s see if thou believes in me (*blows kiss*)

 

Seppo, baby, forgot to mention one little thing — a ring

Blessed, of course, all my own, Seppo baby

So hurry down the chimney tonight.

 

 

On the top of the inner east Luna gate a partridge in a pear tree was singing a UO Holiday Parody song:

 

The lyrics: 

 

*Sings a UO Holiday Parody*

 

Newbie’s roasting in a field of fire, PK’s chopping up their foes

UO carols being sung by a choir, and peeps dressed up like gimps and moe’s

Everybody knows, some black pearl and sulfurous ash or even LRC help to win the evening fight

Looting peeps with their banks full of cash will find it hard to sleep tonight…

They know that EC’s here to stay…

Its luring lots of wide-eyed newbies for to slay and every UO child is gonna try…

To see if UO gifts on shard trade will fly…..

And so I’m offering this twisted phase…to kids from UO – red, or blue….
Though you’ve died and been looted many times, many ways….

Happy Holidays…Haaaaappy Holidays..Happy Holidays….toooo…you….

*squawk*

*chirps*

 

 

At the gardens in New Magincia, Trammel, James the Animal Tamer was singing “Good King Wenceslas” in the Christmas Garden planned and planted by Amber Witch, TOBY, and other dedicated gardeners of New Magincia.

WHEN RU STEALS A MIND
– Kattasrophe, Age 12
After dealing with Ru being a thief of the mind, I find the aftermath to be horrible! Although when he steals your mind you do not remember a thing, at the same time you are still there, fighting to have your memory back. So, what do you do to keep him from stealing your mind? The answer is a frying pan…
Until next time. *hopes to keep her mind*

LIFE ON FELUCCA?
National Aeronautics of Shard Atlantic (NASA) has landed a Rover on Felucca to explore the possibility of life there. “With all these houses and castles, we believe Rover is bound to sniff out a live character somewhere in these vast lands. We just have to be patient.”

The Siege Perilous Hall Of Players is accepting exhibits. Give an item or a book or a statue with your character’s name on it to Kattasrophe or to Victoria, or drop it into the mailbox at the Perilous Inquirer. Your named items will be used to create your exhibit. The Hall Of Players is open to all Siege players.

COLORADO SHARD
UO may announce the opening of a new shard dedicated to pot smokers. “This could be the start of a new, inexpensive game genre,” proclaimed spokeswoman Hashberry, “No more resources spent creating quests, story arcs or even detailed world building. All they’ll need are groovy colors and sitar music. Imagine, a whole game in just one screen!”

How exciting is this ~?!? The very first Trans-Britannia Derby. All riders planning on being part of this historical event need to register prior to 12PM CST on January 25th. Even if you do not plan to ride ( I ride side saddle as all real ladies do and would never win ) attending and cheering on the riders will be exciting. Plus this gives you ladies and gents a showplace for your latest fashions. I am heading to my chests right now to decide on which fabulous hat to wear. See you there.
