Once upon a time, one Christmas Eve,

Jason got some presents, yippee yippee!

A pillow, a sweatshirt, and "Oh look,"

Seinfeld on DVD, and America: The Book

Also two Xbox games, Fable and Halo 2

He liked everything so much; he didn't know what to do

He ran to his Xbox and popped in Fable

He was so excited his hands were unstable

Oh so Jason played for a while, boy was it great

But alas he believed it was time for a break

So he went to see if there was anyone online

Alone he was... It's Halo 2 time!

He dashed to the package and tore it apart,

He wanted to play it, he knew it in his heart

Jason quickly opened the case, only to see

Sadly that there was no Halo 2 CD

There was half of a manual and a CD-R disc

"Creed Weathered" it said, crossed out was "Dance-Mix"

Oh Jason was confused, oh how could this be?

Everything was in order, or so it would've seemed

Someone out there, he doesn't know who

Has his copy of Halo 2

So Jason sat there with a frown

Looking at the garbage that laid on the ground

Oh how could Jason be so naïve?

There would be no Halo 2 on this Christmas Eve

But then something happened… something changed

Like the chemicals in his mind were being rearranged

His frown to a smile and his spirit shooting high

He began to laugh and fell to his side

Jason laughed and laughed, rolling on the floor

Kept laughing and laughing and yes, a little more

But why you ask?  Because he knew...

Christmas was not about Halo 2

It's about love and happiness, but not to be too mushy

It's also about fun and joy and a Christmas cookie

So Jason sat down to write, and out came

The story of the Grinch who stole his game

And for you to see, what Jason has done

All that is needed is to refer to line one

For if you have asked, "Who is he?"

Yes oh yes, Jason is me

And soon I will be off to bed for the night
