As you can see, Bud has white hair and beard. It wouldn’t be a great leap for him to be mistaken for Santa Claus. One hot August evening we were in Target. Bud was wearing a red pullover when we stumbled up on a Christmas display. In his typical fashion, Bud launched into his familiar diatribe about rushing the season and the over commercialization of Christmas.
Amidst his complaints, I noticed a four-year-old boy staring at him in wonder. The tyke obviously thought he’d stumbled up on Santa in Target. I alerted Bud, who immediately changed his manner.
“Merry Christmas, kid.” he said.

Hehehe! What a great picture – and a fun story. My ex had a Santa look, too. :)

“I’ve been looking everywhere for you!” the kid said, thrilled. “Now I won’t have to go to the Post Office with this!”
He slung a bulky and obviously heavy box onto a handy nearby counter.
“My wish list!”
