Waiting for Santa
updated: Dec 18, 2010, 10:00 AM

Dear Edda,

You're not going to believe this! My wife and I took our granddaughter to La Cumbre Plaza the other day, so that she could see Santa, and have a picture with him.

Well, in line ahead of us was a lady with her dog! In line to have a chat with Santa Claus! Jokingly, I asked her if her dog had a long Christmas list, at which point, she proceeded to lambaste me for thinking that dogs can't believe in Santa Claus and that I was being prejudiced against her and that she had waited in line just like everybody else.

Needless to say, I was very embarrassed and didn't know how to respond, so I just turned my back and ignored her. Can you even believe that?

Signed,

Merry Christmas

Dear Merry Christmas,

Yes. I believe.

Edda
