Believe it or Not

It's a crazy world we live in and I do believe, its getting crazier by the minute.

While listening to the radio the other day, I heard this story. It seems in Australia a Santa Claus company (one who provides mall Santas) decided that it was against company policy for their Santa's to say "Ho, Ho, Ho!" You see, the word "Ho" has become a dirty word in their minds. Synonymous with prostitutes. (Wouldn't Santa's profession trump the other Oldest Profession?) Their Santa's must say "Ha, Ha, Ha!" instead.

Well, if we are going to do that then the big man should go on a diet too. You know his cholesterol is through the roof. If it isn't healthy for small children to hear the word "Ho" then it sure can't be good to give them this example of a man who isn't watching his diet. And, while we are on it....you think that red nose is by accident? Obviously, Santa is a drinker. He needs to cut back on the sauce if he's going to be around the kiddos.

Well, and if we are going to be picky then let's score one for the Fashion Police. Santa's outfit is outdated and tacky. Downright fugly.

Really, if Santa had any smarts at all he would have already thought of all this and hired a cracker jack team of p.r. people, image consultants and managers. He would be all beefed up, dressed in designer duds, drinking wheat grass smoothies and just downright sexy.

Like this guy. Hey, now. He can come down my chimney anytime...
