On the twelfth day of Christmas (winter solstice), my true love sent to me
Twelve drummers drumming, ($75 per drum courtesy of OPEC)
Eleven pipers piping, (climate change is causing the sky to fall)
Ten lords a-leaping, (a session of the US Senate or the House of Lords)
Nine ladies dancing, (a TV program)
Eight maids a-milking, (a PORN movie)
Seven swans a-swimming, (protected as an endangered species)
Six geese a-laying, (an aircraft bird strike)
Five golden rings, (at the going gold rate of $1200 per ounce)
Four calling birds, (presidential or prime minister's advisors)
Three French hens, (KFC fast food)
Two turtle doves, (a fiction writer of alternate history)
And a partridge in a pear tree!
