Depressed Christmas
- As I’m sure you’ll learn from many blogs that today is the anniversary of Walt Disney‘s birth. His 109th birthday.
Just as importantly, to me, this is the anniversary of this blog. This is the fifth year I’ve been writing these posts on a daily basis and having fun doing it. Here’s hoping for another five years.
- My good friend, Steve Fisher has noticed a trend in New York, at least in Queens. There’s a depressed state taking hold of Christmas. He comes with evidence in these photos. I’m glad to share them, and only hope that things will perk up.
Well, Santa may be ready, but I’m not sure anyone else is.
One Frosty, down for the count.
Mickey’s a bit deflated.
Et tu, Snoopy?
Charlie Brown for company.
Down and out like laundry out to dry.
Mary watches from a drainpipe in silence,
waiting for Christmas.
What fools these mortals be.
