The Happy Side of Santa

by Jason 12.20.2005 Jason's Random Musings

So a few posts back I reported on some of the frightening reactions to Mr. S. Claus. From the Montgomery Advertiser comes a more heartwarming tale of a guy who bought a "ratty" old Santa suit eighteen years ago and wore it to a friends Christmas party.

Read What Rich Wrote

by Jason 12.15.2005 Jason's Random Musings
