THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – A DOG NAMED CHRISTMAS (2009)

 

20-year-old Todd McCray (Noel Fisher) is developmentally challenged but has a genuine affinity with animals of every kind.

So, when he hears on the radio that the animal shelter is looking for people to foster a dog during Christmas, he is eager to sign up.

His mom Mary Ann (Linda Emond) sees no problem but his dad, George (Bruce Greenwood) takes a little more convincing, but he eventually agrees.

Todd chooses a friendly nameless yellow lab who he calls “Christmas”.

Not content with that however he launches a campaign to get all the dogs fostered and succeeds.

But will he have as much luck convincing his dad to keep the Dog after the holidays?

ARE YOU WEARING CHRISTMAS SPATS?

 

Are you wearing Christmas spats?

Well I don’t like them much

But I have to admit that the motif

Of holly is a very nice touch

I TOOK THE GRANDCHILDREN TO THE THEATRE

 

I took the grandchildren to the theatre

To watch the new pantomime Aladdin

I knew it wasn’t going to be very good

As they refunded my money on the way in

WHEN GINGERBREAD MEN SLEEP

When a gingerbread man lays

On his bed Perchance to sleep

He does so every single night

Laying down on a cookie sheet

THREE MEN DIED ON CHRISTMAS EVE

 

Three men died on Christmas Eve

And were stood before St Peter

“You must all pass a simple test

Before you are allowed to enter”

 

“So produce a symbol of the season

Either on or about your person”

 

The first man retrieved a bauble

From his overcoat pocket

And St Peter turned to the gate

And proceeded to unlock it

 

St Peter said “You are blessed

Because you have passed the test”

 

The next man took a red bow

From his overcoat pocket

And St Peter turned to the gate

And proceeded to unlock it

 

St Peter said “You are blessed

Because you have passed the test”

 

The last man took a pair of panties

From his overcoat pocket

St Peter stood fast before the gate

And made no effort to unlock it

 

St Peter said “You are not blessed

Because you have failed the test”

 

“In what way do a pair of knickers

Symbolized the Christmas season

I fail to see how they are appropriate

So enlighten me as to the reason”

 

So the man proceeded to explain

“A young woman’s intimate apparels

Are without a doubt appropriate

When they happen to be carols”

IT WAS ANOTHER SUV CHRISTMAS

 

It was another SUV Christmas

Thanks to my significant other

No not that kind of SUV, I got

Socks, Underwear and Viagra

MY WORST CHRISTMAS PRESENT EVER # 3

 

My worst Christmas present ever

Without a doubt, I have concluded

Was when I received a box of batteries

Labelled “toys not included”
