Oh, my.... how many kiddies have sat on HIS lap?
Omigod... and the guy running the minilab where the Santa pix are processed once diddled his cousin! Lock your kids in the basement!
There have been stories pretty much like this every year for several years. Many years ago they interviewed Santa on radio at a shopping mall and said, "Well, Santa, how was your trip from the North Pole?" Santa said, "The speed was good and we are ready to face the hordes of youngsters."
Don't these guys have to avoid situations that involve children? Can't he be locked up again for this?
Of course, we wouldn't want these guys to ever have to serve their entire prison terms, after all they are such model prisoners and deserve another crack at our children.
Seems the photographer was the 'registered' one. What happened? They didn't do a background check on him before he was hired. And Santa himself? Doesn't say... My guess is they'll be doing a bit more checking before they hire. But thank goodness for the registry. If you can't put them away forever then you have to track them.
So, fire the guy and crank Santa's village back up again. What's the big deal?
I think my kids are already well on the way to Santa becomming symbolic anyway.
My daughter (6) told me a couple of days ago, Daddy, can you tell Santa not to hide his gifts in your closet this year?
