    He's young. He'll learn. We all have to go through this phase.

    I look at it this way, at least he's interested in history and wants to learn.

    Now all we have to do is get him learn how to research before asking questions.

    Are you still upset because you didn't get five golden tukes for Christmas last year?

    Canadian Boy, what did I tell you about using capital letters at the beginning of each sentence? You will get a lot further on this forum if you learn not to offend peoples eyes (with due apologies to Professor Higgins).

    Articles such as "I" are also to be used as capital letters, not as "i".

    Song Lyrics

    Bob: Ok, on the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me..
    beer.

    On the 2nd day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...
    2 turtlenecks,
    and beer.

    On the 3rd day of Christmas, my true love gave to me..
    3 french toast,
    2 turtlenecks,
    and beer.
    There should be more there, eh?

    Where?

    On the 4th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me..
    4lbs of backbacon,
    3 french toast,
    2 turtlenecks,
    and beer in a tree.

    Oh. See? ya need more.

    On the 5th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me..
    5 GOLDEN TOQUES!
    4lbs of backbacon,
    3 french toast,
    2 turtlenecks,
    and beer in a tree.

    On the 6th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me..
    6 packs of two-four.
    5 GOLDEN TOQUES!
    4lbs of backbacon,
    3 french toast,
    2 turtlenecks,
    and beer in a tree.

    Ok.

    On the 7th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me..
    7 packs of smokes,
    6 packs of two-four,
    5 GOLDEN TOQUES!
    4lbs of backbacon,
    3 french toast,
    2 turtlenecks,
    and beer in a tree.

    oh, i keep forgettin'.

    whew, this should be just the 2 days of xmas, this is too hard for us!

    On the 8th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me..

    7 packs of smokes,
    6 packs of two-four,
    5 GOLDEN TOQUES!
    4lbs of backbacon,
    3 french toast,
    2 turtlenecks,
    and beer in a tree.

    Wow,That beers empty

    Day 12.

    G'day and welcome to day 12.

    Yeah.

    5 GOLDEN TOQUES!
    4lbs of backbacon,
    3 french toast,
    2 turtlenecks,
    and beer in a tre-e.

    Where did you learn to do that?

    Uh, Albums.

    Boy, so thats our song merry Christmas, and g'day.

    G'day everybody. Happy new years.

    Ok, ya know what ya left out?

    What?

    Donuts. I told you to get me donuts.

    Oh no!

    Either on the 9th day, or the 10th day or the 11th day. I wanted donuts.

    The song is over merry Christmas everybody, or the 12th you coulda gotten me a dozen donuts.

    Go to the stores and get some presents. You coulda gone down to the donut shop where you buy a dozen donuts, you get another donut free. Then it coulda been 13 for the 13 days of Christmas.

    Next Christmas, get me a chainsaw.

    Take off!

    Boy that song was a beauty.. it moved me.

    Yah , it ranks up there with stairway to heaven.

    What?
