It’s a tough job, but somebody has to…oh, you know!
Silliest (and Coolest) Christmas Moment
So I start to unwrap a gift, but then I see that my daughter and her hubby are opening our “big” present to them. It’s a Kindle.
I’m excited because–well, I’m a guy. I love gadgets. And I’ve never actually seen a Kindle. And deep down I have electronic lust.
(Now, I’m too cheap to buy myself hi-tech gadgets. Most of the time. But that doesn’t mean that I don’t want ’em.)
“I hope you like it,” I say with hardly a trace of jealousy. “I’m sorta curious about that [Kindle.] I’ve thought about…uh, maybe getting one.”
Everyone just stops and looks at me.
Now I’m confused. Then I look down and see that the gift I’m unwrapping is a Kindle.
Gosh! It’s almost like Santa knew what I wanted!
Merry Christmas–if you celebrate Christmas. And if you don’t–go celebrate something else!
Before anyone can ask, I’ll confess the obvious. Unlike almost all Last Kiss comics, this piece isn’t a revamp of old romance comic art.
Colorist extraordinaire Allen Freeman penciled and inked this one himself.
And all I can say is–wow!
Sure…as long as I can pretend you’re someone else.
