Still Life in Snowflakes

Christmas statues are commonplace in countries around the world. There are the usual snowmen (previously), reindeer, and other types of fauna (an update to a previous post). But the most sought-after model is of course the Fat Man.

Some come to praise almighty Santa, others to bury him. But in the end, don't we all want to see a little more of the inimitable, irreplaceable, caffeine-free, clothing-optional Santa?

(Apparently, not everyone does).

I'm so sad that there is no picture for the clothing-optional Santa.

I've been good this year.

I thought Rule 34 had become like Moore's Law; I see now I was wrong :)
Your wish is my command.

For a second I thought you meant The Fat Man.

A house down the hill a ways has penguins and other cold weather animals.

Hubby and I always joke about their "Christmas Seal"!

Today a friend of mine at work told me about this little fella, and this looks like the place to give him a shout out.

What about the Tongue of the Fatman?

I was really confused because the first thing I thought of was this fat man.

Not sure what that says about me.
