In this holiday season, let us not forget the little people in sweatshops who make it all possible

Edited on Thu Nov-29-07 04:31 PM by TechBear_Seattle

We're used to repetition, so we drew up a petition
We, the undersigned, feel undermined
Let's redefine "employment"

We know that we've got leverage, so we'll hand the fat man a beverage
And sit back while we attack the utter lack of our enjoyment

It may be tough to swallow, but our threats are far from hollow
He may thunder, but if he blunders, he may wonder where the toys went

The Barenaked Ladies sing The Elf's Lament
Lyrics

They applied to work for Kathy Lee Gifford, and they got what they deserve.
