I ran into Santa this evening when I stopped by the square. Not the real Santa, but an itinerate Santa. He told me his name was Chris. It seems he likes to take a couple of weeks off at the end of each year, and travel around the city on Tri-Met; spreading holiday cheer everywhere he goes. He was a little disappointed tonight, because no one on the square was paying attention to him. I tried my best to cheer him up, but I don’t think it worked.
