The Rhyming Riddle

Where does Christmas come before Thanksgiving? On a calendar that starts in December. In all retail stores, Thanksgiving is not even holiday anymore. Santa's sleigh and jingling bells are heard before the turkey's smell. You get one point minus three. It can not be. Minus three. Three bad tries. If it's not clear how many points you have, then we'll tally at the end. I'm going to stop asking Mark questions and just assume that I know how many points I have at this point. Somewhere between negative five and fifteen. Enjoy.
