These two children appear to be fingering Santa as the culprit, but why? Is he guilty of wage and hour violations in the elves' sweatshop? Shipping huge amounts of loot internationally without the necessary customs licenses? Failure to record a flight plan with the Federal Aviation Administration? I couldn't tell from this distance but just look at his guilty expression. Later, I saw him flashing gang signs with this bro from the hood, pictured below. Something fishy was going on.
WHAT I'M READING: Salman Rushdie's most recent novel, The Enchantress of Florence. Rushdie plays the English language like Horowitz played the piano. The book is riveting (to old Strangetastes, anyway). It is coming out in paperback in the US in early January if you want to save a buck or two.
TOMORROW: Thursday Arch Series and also a new Arch photo on Gateway.

ReplyDeleteTHis is hysterical! Thanks for the holiday humor, Bob!
ReplyDeleteMaybe they are jeering because he's got a green purse hanging off his belt! Good ones today, made me laugh.

J'accuse! Funny stuff, pops. I couldn't stick with Enchantress I'm sorry to say. It needed more focus from me than I could give it, at the time at least.
ReplyDeleteSanta carrying a "murse' andholding hands with a little girl...BUSTED !!
ReplyDeleteSanta looks, well, shall we say, real. Was that a fake beard or was it his own? Maybe they were onto him and he had to pretend to be Fake Santa? What a predicament!
ReplyDeleteYou always have such fabulous portraits. Wonderful.
Love the accused shot!
ReplyDeleteLOL Santa is a good sport.
