During this festive time of the year I thought it would be nice to have a specific thread where everyone could wish their fellow TrekBBS members a Happy-Merry-Joyful-Holiday-Christmas-Kwanza-Hanukkah-Chanukah-Solstice-Festivus. Found or homemade, it is up to you how and what you share. You can post a poem written for the BBS or do a Holiday thread bomb or share pictures of your Festivus pole or show-off your crazy outdoor decorations or sing a song or just write a simple message. My only stipulation is that it has to be something positive and from the heart.
(We did something similar last year and I thought it would be fun to do it again. I just wish I had started the thread earlier so everyone would have more time to participate. I have been so busy it slipped my mind.)

And since this is my Holiday thread it is only right I get us started…
I created this Holiday card for my fellow BBSers…
I also “Trekified” this Christmas Song for your amusement. I would sing it to you but I don’t want to be warned for trolling.
I hope you enjoy my meager offerings. And may each of you find yourselves having a truly fantastic season. It is all of you that make this place feel like a second home. Happy Winter Solstice!

The Trek Christmas Song
Replicated chestnuts roasting on an open holographic fire,
Comets nipping on your nose,
Yuletide carols being sung by an android choir,
And Red Shirts dressed up like Andorian Eskimos.
Everybody knows a targ and some mistletoe,
Help to make the nova bright.
Tiny Borg with their optics all aglow,
Will find it hard to regenerate tonight.
They know that Santa's warping on his way;
He's loaded lots of tricorders and phasers on his sleigh.
And every starship ensign is going to spy,
To see if robot reindeer really know how to fly.
And so I'm transmitting this simple phrase,
To Starfleet personnel from one to one-thousand-ninety-two,
Although its been translated many times, many ways,
A very Merry Trek Christmas to you.

Lyrics and song by Torme and Wells with a little Trek from yours truly.
