Twas the Night Before Christmas: Scarbrough Style

Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the world,
Not a creature was stirring, not even three squirrels.
There was no chimney, so the stockings were hung on the wall,
And the tree was decorated with bright lights and round balls.
But lurking near the tree, the one who wouldn't leave,
Was a small monster by the name of Steve.
"I can't wait to see Santa; I hope he comes soon,
I've been waiting to meet him since this afternoon!"
At that moment, there came a strange growl,
Steve's tummy was empty from his little night prowl.
The thumbprint cookies were the only thing in sight,
But Steve was then met with a plight.
Santa's understanding, no need for a quibble,
Surely he wouldn't mind if Steve had one nibble.
The cookies were good, they were so yummy,
Steve wanted to put more in his tummy.
He ate some more cookies, his mouth full of fun,
He paused to say, "When it comes to thumbprint cookies, you can't eat just one!"
As the night grew on, and Steve's eyes grew weak,
He took to the couch, hoping to still sneak a peek.
Later still, as Steve fell into a doze,
By the tree, St. Nick appeared, with his finger aside of his nose.
The jovial fellow reached down for a sweet,
Only to find Steve had already eaten his treat.
Santa knew Steve was a good kid, and didn't mean to be messin',
But he also knew he needed a lesson.
Santa filled the stockings, to fulfill each Christmas wish,
In Steve's stocking he left a fresh Christmas... fish.
Just as he came in, the way he did so,
Santa left, with a merry, "Ho-ho-hoooo!"
Darkness turned to light, no alarm or warning,
Steve lifted his head and realized, "It's Christmas morning!"
He raced to his stocking to see what Santa did bring,
Only to find this fishy something.
Steve took one look, and pondered, "How could this be?
I wonder if it's because I ate Santa's cookies."
Merry Christmas to all, enjoy your hoopla,
As for Steve... "Maybe next year I should celebrate Hanukkah."

Ella the Elf Returns

Only this time, she's on Steve's turf, instead of the other way around.

For those who don't remember, Ella the Elf is Santa Claus' Head Elf In Charge Of Stuff up at the North Pole; last year, Steve was selected to stand on duty keeping an eye on the Santa Radar Tracker System as Santa makes his journey across the globe, delivering presents to all the good lil' boys and girls over the world.

Well, that's what was supposed to happen any way, as this six-part special, entitled Steve's Inefficient Christmas, was never able to reach the production stages due to an overwhelming number of technical difficulties. At any rate, Ella the Elf is making another appearance in this year's latest Christmas entry... so, what exactly is going on here? Well, why don't you just click the play button on the player below, and see for yourself?
