armed German robbers in Santa disguises

How can this be? I thought that Germany had strict gun control laws?

This is probably one of the funniest things I have read in a while.

So, who keeps track of whether or not SANTA is naughty or nice? Who watches the watchers? It seems there is some need for oversight, to maintain the balance of powers in the holiday charactrer hierarchy. Perhaps the Easter Bunny, Uncle Sam and the Arbor Day Elf can form a tripartite commission to review the behavioral irregularities of the Yuletide Branch.

"Last week an inebriated half-naked Santa disrupted a Christmas market in Dabringhausen before police intervened."

That's nothing. Happens around the Kennedy compound every Christmas. :)

Gee, I wonder who's heading up all those bad Santas?

Oh, of course! It's gotta be St. Slick!

If punishment were up to me, I'd reenact on each one them the scene in "Unforgiven" where Gene Hackman is whipping Morgan Freeman and threatening to hurt him "not gentle, like before, but really hurt" him....

Santi-Wrap .....Laraine Newman .....Dan Aykroyd Mall Santa.....John Belushi [ open on Laraine Newman and Dan Aykroyd standing in line to see Santa Claus at the mall ] Laraine Newman: I'm next! Dan Aykroyd: [ laughing ] Are you sure you want to do this? Laraine Newman: Sure! You know, I mean it's crazy, this time of year does something to me, I feel like a little kid! Dan Aykroyd: Make it quick, though - we've got a lot of shopping to do. Laraine Newman: Oh, don't be such a Scrooge. Where's your spirit? [ little girl steps off Santa's lap and heads off ] Mall Santa: Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas, everybody! Laraine Newman: I'll only be a minute. Dan Aykroyd: Sure. [ as Laraine steps up to Santa Claus, she unrolls some toilet paper which she proceeds to place around his lap ] Dan Aykroyd: Hey, wait a minute! What are you doing? Laraine Newman: Relax! I said I'll only be a minute.. Dan Aykroyd: What is this? Laraine Newman: It's for protection. Dan Aykroyd: Toilet tissue?! You mean, you haven't heard of Santi-Wrap? [ holds up red and green colored toilet seat protection sheet ] Sure.. Santi-Wrap - the colorful, decorative and hygienic way to protect yourself from germs carried by the likes of a part-time Santa Claus. Mall Santa: [ drinking from a bottle of alcohol ] Ho ho ho.. Dan Aykroyd: Look, he's so jolly, he's smart, he knows if you've been sleeping - but do you know where he's been sleeping? Laraine Newman: [ sits up with a stir ] Oh, my goodness! Dan Aykroyd: That's just it, Look, Laraine - I love Santa just as much as anybody else, but, December 26th, Noel over here goes back to the Y. Mall Santa: [ drinking from a bottle of alcohol ] Ho ho ho.. Laraine Newman: But won't toilet paper protect me? Dan Aykroyd: Two-ply? Never. Not these germs. Let me show you. [ show image of Santa's bare leg ] Dan Aykroyd: This is a picture of Santa's leg. Seems normal. But look at the same picture magnified under a microscope. [ show circular close-up of tiny little men sitting on a street corner, with little hairs surrounding the lens ] Laraine Newman: Are those Santa's helpers? Dan Aykroyd: Yes, those are Santa's helpers. And they're communicable. Now, will you stop using the two-ply? Laraine Newman: What a fool I've been! [ replaces her toilet paper with one Santi-Wrap sheet and sits ] Okay.. I want a car, and a refigerator, and - Dan Aykroyd: Use Santi-Wrap, and I promise you won't get one tick.. from jolly St. Nick. Mall Santa: [ drinking from a bottle of alcohol ] Ho ho ho.. ho.. ho ho.. [ fade ]
