Santaspeak: politically incorrect?

Holly: check this out. According to this, Santa language is potentially frightening to children and derogatory to women!!!

So, be careful when you're taking the little Pigs to the mall in December...

And, just in case that isn't frightening enough, here is a mass Santa photo: taken in Sydney, Australia, home of the above controversy.

For some odd reason I'm reminded of that old Monty Python skit where the Pope is peeved with Michelangelo because his artistic vision led to three Christs in a commissioned painting of The Last Supper. Michelangelo's response? "I thought the two skinny ones balanced out the fat one".)


Oh, by the way, if you're really looking to waste time, check out One Man's Blog for links to the top 150 Monty Python sketches...

Cheers,

Kristina (who can't help but think of this old SNL skit. Man, am I ever dating myself...)

Santa was one of my first crushes...him and Einstein.
