Based on a local ten o'clock news story, with film)
Why did the man punch his neighbor's inflated Santa?
Had his boss chewed him out that day?
Was he enraged by the commercialization of Christmas?
Did his neighbor's dog poop on his lawn?
What could have provoked him so on a starry Christmas night?
In the shadow of darkness, he pummeled Santa.
Hit him with a right, a left, and another right!
Santa didn't stand a chance.
But justice was served by the unseen surveillance camera,
And his neighbor had the last laugh.
Ho ho ho! That is so funny! I almost don't want to see the clip; you've conjured a good image right in my head. (But, is there a clip?) :)
ReplyDeleteYes, there is a clip! It was on the news a couple of years ago, this man beating the heck out of Santa, and busted by the security camera. I laughed my head off at the sight. I tried to find the clip on youtube to post it here, but couldn't find it. Glad you enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteThis is so delightful! I love all the possible reasons for why he might have pummeled Santa! And a wonderful twist at the end. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jessie! Yes, so much to enjoy in that story!
