Sighting

Sitting idly in my truck before work this morning, I watched the comings and goings across the street.

At one point a Cadillac XLR, dark red with a black ragtop, rumbled past me and turned into the post office. An elderly man climbed out of the low-slung roadster, walked over to the mailbox, deposited a stack of envelopes and got back into his car. He performed an impressive burnout as he left.

Oh, by the way -- this gentleman was dressed in a red warmup suit, black boots and black gloves. On his head was a distinctive red-velvet hat, trimmed in white fur. He had a large snow-white beard.

Santa drives a hot Caddy -- who knew?
