I was a bit disappointed that no one undertook the traditional Falcon "T'was The Night Before Christmas" duties this year so i thought i'd give it a shot. Don't be too hard on me, i'm not exactly a poet :)
T’was the night before Xmas in the great Mako field
Not a well was a flowing but the longs would not yield
We had four new directors all snug in their beds
Hoping the pipe dreim was not soon to be dead
Our leader still installed enjoying the sun down in Oz
Glad he escaped the lynching against insurmountable odds
As we sit and we wait on the great Exxon’s decision
Hoping that the PDA will not come under revision
Dreiming the new year might bring flows so grand
And that our cowboy MAB has more than two in the hand
And a backup plan in case things don’t work out
As the farmers said we got XTO don’t worry nor pout
We’ll get things a rolling, it won’t be long now
Before Exxon discovers our Mako’s a cash cow
For all us believers know the resource is fair
We just need some patience and expertise to get us there
So the “rebs” hung their stockings on the mantle with care
And in them were of course multi millions of shares
With the hope that they might set the ship to the right
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night.
