Saga of the Sad Sack Santas

It's not all sugarplums, you know. I was bounced from my job as a department store Santa for forgetting my lines. The supervisor said, "What's so difficult about remembering 'ho ho ho'?" and stripped off my beard.

And then there was my buddy Frank, who, after getting too enthusiastically into the Yuletide spirit, was found singing "Baby, It's Cold Outside" with a scantily clad Elf.

But the worst came for George, a Santa at a Sears store. There were signs all over the place saying "Everything On Sale!" and "Everything Must Go!"

A family from Alberta assumed this included Santa, bought him, and carried him back to Pincher Creek.

George protested, but the Sears people said, "Sorry. All sales final."
