Description:

NOBODY EXPECTS THE SANTA INQUISITION! It's chief element is foreshadowing, followed by surprise, and threatening to give out toys!

No, no, no, no NObody expects a Santa Inquisition swap! Almost every small child asks complicated questions about the existence of a quasi-mythological yet ever-present figure, and many adults question the logic of persuading children of the benign and friendly existence of an elderly obese man who threatens suburban safety by overeating and then housebreaking.

NO, No-no, No Body expects La Santa Inquisicion at the time that most stores begin rolling out the first of the products devoted to the most sacred of shopping seasons!

With fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency, we will write on a really silly postcard the most challenging or confusing question that we can think of to ask Santa, should we find ourselves on his lap this year, and send it to our partner. Then we will sit in a Comfy Chair with Soft Cushions, drinking Cold Milk. Why? Because Cardinal Fang says so.

Feel free to participate in the Liberate Santa swap after this confession and torture. You may also choose to watch this very silly video clip from Monty Python

Liberate Santa Swap is a Work In Progress, by the way. It MIGHT involve slapping a hat associated with St. Nicholas or other Santa figure onto an image of anything your little heart desires. It WILL be liberating. Cricket bats! Ambidextrous water striders!

Can our silly postcards be created by the labor of our hands with sweat on our brows? Or do we have to face the pre-Halloween Christmas rush to duel with our shopping carts for a store-bought wonder?

Cardinal Biggles says "yes, but they must be dried thoroughly on The Rack!" Ximenez notes that he has lost track of the number of rules, and Fang feels that anything goes as long as the Comfy Chair Rule is observed. I feel that this is a quorum.

So, yes, any sort of postcard that you find silly will do. I personally love handmade postcards :)

OOps dang I missed the signup deadline! Now I can't ask Santa for that....
