Santa Lives

In response to Terry Flood's post. SANTA LIVES!! Slow down just a bit, Terry. 'Twas just indigestion and he's merry Tom's not a contender Santa is a pretender Tom C's too busy on Soup Creek's prairie Terry, your demands are way out of line No brandy allowed, not even cheap wine There's a grave on Boot Hill Needing a body to fill Tom has a coffin your size, made of pine

I’ve been framed. You’d get four of me in Santa’s pants. So if the person on the roof looked like me, then we’re looking for a blond Adonis with a muscle bound physique but a 50 inch waist. Of course, we should ask ourselves how it was that a certain someone was first to know that Santa had fallen. And clue number two, why does Tom happen to have a spare coffin… hmm… just where is all the marmite? It’s time to decide… Terry

First of all, Tom is Soup Creek’s undertaker, so it stands to reason that he has coffins Layin’’ around. A blond Adonis who wants Santa’s job sounds a bit out of character to me. Ulterior motive to be discovered in the trial. I haven’t seen the evidence. We’d better get in touch with the circuit judge. That marmite must be moldy by now, wherever it is. Who cares?

Thank you Jenna, first things first we have to find him, where's Ranger Dave when you need him lol. I've written in response, even got his picture too, he'll be found soon enough. We'll pick the Jury, he lost all rights when he pushed santa off the roof.

I like Terry, but I have your back, Mayor Tom. I wonder who'll be on that jury?
