Thanks axlrosen: yes, it's the fourth annual Santa Speedo Run, held last Saturday to benefit the Children's AIDS Program in Boston.

Ha! Fun!

It's nice to know that these sorts of activities happen in the United States, too, not just exotic Spanish metropoli.

Real Santas don't wear green.:p
Oh,...Bostonians drink a lot too.

I was walking by some store that I would never shop at -- the Bon Marche? -- and I saw that their display was information about Santa. They depicted Santa in a green cloak, and said that the Santa in the original colonies was a meld of various European versions of Santa (who wore green and walked!).

Presumably, their information predates Coca-Cola's red & white Santa advertising campaign.

See, there's proof. Only one of those damn foreign Santa's would wear green. And WALK? In America? C'mon.
They probably wore red speedos anyway.:D

I am so not impressed. My husband can't even wear speedo's as a certain part of his anatomy can't be contained in those mini-briefs. Of coure, they're probably using the excuse it was cold.....

I went to a Christmas party where the sign over the urinal said "I know what you told your wife/girlfriend but please stand 7 inches closer".:)

Experienced craftsmen learn to make the best use of the tool at hand.

Theres a joke in here about stuffer stockings. But I'm too lazy to make it. Someone else do it.
