Hurry Down the Chimney Tonight

Think of all the fun I've missed
Think of all the [girls] that I haven't kissed

(from "Santa Baby" by Javits and Springer)

It's true, too.  I've been an especially good boy this year.  I haven't gone out once.  I've done all my work and have been a wonderful son and taken marvelous care of my mother.  I've even quit drinking.  I've written every day and given away so awfully many good and pretty pictures, too.  All for free!

Still, I am not holding my breath for any presents this year.  Santa, I think, will probably pass my house up altogether.

As the old factory owner used to say, "No good deed goes unpunished."

And how I've found that out, too.  I sent out an email announcement of the show over at 591 to everyone who participated, some of whom never acknowledged receipt of their images.  But now--well, EVERYONE has a suggestion or two.  Now that we are "famous". . . whatever. All I'm saying is that I don't expect much from Christmas but drinks on the Boulevard Christmas Eve with the the widows and orphans who have nowhere else to go.

Life is just funny that way.

Some of you may have noticed that I did not link the show back to this site.  Probably not.  But I didn't.  So we--you and I--are the only ones who see all of the show including this image that I just processed today.  Tell your friends.  We are a growing number having double in size this year.  While other companies are dropping like zeppelins, we've doubled our value and are now nearing something nearing four figures.  Go Team.

Santa honey, I wanna yacht and really that's
Not a lot
I've been an angel all year

O.K.  Here's the song.  "Santa Baby" by Eartha Kitt.  The rimes are really good.
