It's almost as if the old lady's knickers were dancing with the wind. That's truly what we should all be free just like that pair of old lady's knickers. Once, those knickers where bound to be stuck to a pair of wrinkly old legs and now look at the knickers in flight it's an amazing sight. This is the most amazing thing I've ever filmed.

SANTA: The website? That cheap old thing? It's an amateurish piece of Flash animation that has a cartoon of me bouncing a child in my lap and asking if you've been naughty or nice. If you click on I've been nice, it disables your mouse. If you click on I've been naughty, it links you to a raunchy porn site called www.santaslittlehelper.com, charges your credit card forty-five bucks, and then disables your mouse.
