WAG - Season's Greetings...and giggles
My next 48 hours will be packed, nuts, and may not include the LOTR:ROTK (since I am facing a massive writer's block on my previously mentioned paper).
Today I've already put into a motion a project to make a "Book of Memories" for the Staff Member leaving Cramer - where all the residents are encouraged to add a page. I conducted a last minute furniture survey of the floor's public areas. I also got Christmas cards out to everyone on the floor.
More studying and writing to do, but I'm on track for today's test and feel comfortable enough to share a news story.
I could try to make a clever comment before going into the story, but I'm just going to give a straightforward recitation of the facts, because they're funny by themselves.
A man... in Pennsylvania... robbed a bank... while disguised as Santa Claus.
I'll pause as you re-read that sentence.
The security pictures of this holiday heist are quite a sight to see.
This link from a local TV station includes a Real Player clip of their "on the scene" news report. The reporter's had a lot of fun with this one. I don't know if I'd have the chutzpah to refer to the getaway driver as "one of Santa's helpers" when interviewing a state trooper.
Of course, I'm further cracked up by the two witnesses to the escape (in a tan, reindeer colored car) who were asked if they saw anything “suspicious looking.”
“…and my daughter remembered she saw Santa Claus coming down the alley.”
Priceless.
Happy holidays everybody.
