A friend of mine on the "Corvair Center" website posted this poem, and I thought it was good enough to pass along to my Motortopia friends.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Twas the night before Christmas and there in his house,
Ol' Ralph Nadar was sleeping as quiet as a mouse.
Ralphie heard such a noise, he exclaimed "What's the matter?
Sounds like a Corvair with it's valves all a-clatter"
When all of a sudden dear Santa appeared
But he wasn't driving his tiny reindeer!
Santa Claus shouted, "I don't mind the noise
'Cause look at my 'Vair, it's chock full o' toys
Toys for the girls...wire wheels with spinners,
Toys for the boys...Finned oil pans, that's a winner!"
Nader rubbed at his eyes, couldn't believe such a sight,
The nerve of this guy with his Corvair so bright!
All Nader heard as the 'Vair whisked from sight,
Was "Merry Christmas and to all a good night"
Nader's heart beat, he was having a stroke!
No, a nightmare, but soon he awoke...
All's quiet now, not a trace of the spoils,
But out on the snow... just a small spot of oil!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On a more serious side, we would like to wish all of our friends on Motortopia, and their families, a very merry Christmas and a joyous and blessed New year!
