Jesus, the Real Superman

When Brother Todd visited from Texas recently, he was telling me about one of his neighbor’s tattoos, and I completely misunderstood what he meant. I forget what the real tattoo was — something to do with Jesus — but I mistakenly thought he was describing a tattoo of Jesus Christ hanging on the cross, with blood running down his face and pooling on His chest to form the Superman “S” logo. And honestly, I thought that sounded like a badass tattoo.

Update: About ten years later, Sandra illustrated this pretty much like I imagined it:

Xmas Party

I have to go to the company Christmas party today goddammit. I had no intention of attending, but my boss is shrewd and will be giving out paychecks at the Christmas party. If you skip the Xmas party, the office is closed the rest of the week & you're assed-out on your check. I'm still not so sure I'll go though. Maybe I'll flip a coin.

**UPDATE**

OK, I'm going to the company Christmas party. Ready to walk out the door right now. I'm bringing my gift, it's a hand flipping the bird. Can't wait to see who gets randomly chosen to receive my gift:

Merry Christmas, fucker.

Drawn-on sharpie sideburns were very fashionable in those days.
