As some of you may know I’m now a proud resident of the surprisingly fru fru Hoboken, NJ. A few nights ago my wife and I came across something we never thought we’d see. Santa, obviously crushed by the economic times, has decided to do himself in ala “Brookes” from Shawshank Redemption… right in the middle of Washington Street.
Okay, maybe it’s just a badly positioned robot of the bringer of good cheer, but seriously… the store that’s displaying this guy could do well not to plug him in from the roof… and that step he’s pirched on is also a pretty sick piece of work. All that said, I like to imagine that Santa knows he can’t afford all those toys this year so he’s going to take advantage of that life insurance policy Mrs. Claus took out on him after the night it was so foggy he had to have the “slow” reindeer with the red nose guide his sleigh.
nothing quite like a shambing twitchy santa on a rope to remind the kiddies that zombie jesus died for your sins.. o_O
