Twelve Days of Winterfest
(Sing to the tune of “12 Days of Christmas”)

On the twelfth day of Winterfest, the city gave to me
Toxic toys from China
Plastic Christmas trees
Cancer-causing Pringles
Trackside live horses
Pissed pentagon officials
Snow fights in the tropics
Tacky Christmas lights
Li-Ka Shing’s stake on Facebook
An empty Disneyland
Price hike on bacon
A Brand new legislator
And a promise of democracy

Have a Merry Christmas! I will be surveying whether Jesus will return with the Mahdi…

I woke up at 3 a.m., packed, went all the way to O’Hare, lined up for a good 2 hours and was told that my flight has been canceled. After some angry and tearful protests, they decided to upgrade me to First Class and felt “extremely sorry for the delays.”

At this rate, when will I ever see Hong Kong again?

Let me go, please.
