A New Yorker’s 12 Days of Christmas

Five Golden Rings

A New Yorker’s 12 Days of Christmas
By Amy Carothers



12 Drummers Drumming: 'Music' Makers banging on garbage lids
11 Pipers Piping: The same clarinet player playing Part of Your World day in and out

10 Lords a leaping: Cockroaches scurrying along the streets or subways
9 Ladies Dancing: On the bar after too much merrymaking
8 Maids a Milking: Women on the prowl during the weekends
7 Swans a Swimming-Central Park’s Swan House and Turtle Lake
6 Geese a Laying: No geese but New York City’s Bird-The Pigeon
5 Golden Rings: With the ratio of guys to girls people are searching for at least a brass ring
4 Calling Birds: People giving the bird after someone steals their taxi
3 French Hens: A French Guy in the city, at least 3 women will be after him
2 Turtle Doves: Couples kissing on the train pushing you in the corner so they can make out
1 Partridge in the Pear Tree: Kevin is not the only one Home Alone
