    GIRL TAKES DARE… *GASP*



    ADOPTED TEEN JOURNEYS TO CHINA



    Snoop’s best carols of 2006! Winners announced



    First a big thank you to everyone who wrote for the contest and voted….Second, the winners are….

    (Snoop had to break a tie in the new tiquee category – what a difficult choice! He thoroughly enjoyed chewing on both, but ultimately a free-tiquee prize must go to…

    #4 (Frosty the Snowman) – 45% of the vote

    Frosty the Snowman was a really tasty treat
    With his corn cob pipe
    And a carrot ripe
    He looked good enough to eat

    Frosty the Snowman awoke to quite a shock
    To a long earred friend
    With a fluffy end
    Who was asking “What’s up Doc?”

    There must have been a ‘wabbit’ in that old silk hat they found
    Cause when they placed it on his head, they could hear a crunching sound.

    Frosty the Snowman is a better man today
    No more big nose jokes
    No more coughs from smokes
    It’s a Hoppy Christmas Day!
    Have a Hoppy Christmas Day!

    The runner up? #5 (Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer) Snoop the Beige-Nosed Rabbit – 36% of the vote
    Sno-oop the beige-nosed rabbit
    Had a very runny nose
    It was so sore and tender
    ‘Cause of all the times he blows

    All of the pretty rabbits
    Used to laugh and call him names
    They never let poor Sno-oop
    Play their snugglebunny games

    Then one late night on TV
    A commercial said
    Just one pill and you will see
    Sinus trouble’s history
    (Commonsideeffectsincludedizzinessheadachesnauseaandthroatpain.A
    sudden decrease
    inbloodpressuremayoccuruponstandingrarelyresultinginfainting.)

    Then all the rabbits loved him
    To their party he did go
    Vixen the hottest rabbit
    Met him ‘neath the mistletoe

    And in the re-tiquee category….envelope please!

    Our second freetique winner is #12 (White Christmas) Bunny Christmas – 45% of the vote

    I’m dreaming of a Bunny Christmas!
    Just like the ones I used to nose
    Where the salt licks glisten
    The rabbits listen
    To hear
    Hopping in the snow

    I’m dreaming of a Bunnnnny Christmas. . .
    With every carrot that I crunch
    May your nest be cozy and round
    And may all your Christmas
    . . .Joy. . .be found!

    SNOOP SAYS:

    Thumpety-thump-thump! Thumpety-thump-thump!
