Toys don't pay for themselves

It looks like the recession has hit everybody pretty hard--even mystical beings:

Police say a man dressed as Santa Claus has robbed a Rhode Island yacht club.

Authorities say a bartender was alone in the East Providence Yacht Club Sunday night when a large man wearing a red suit, red hat, white beard and carrying a sack walked into the bar and brandished a gun.

The bartender fled and ran to a nearby business where she called 911.

There were no immediate arrests.

They should check the chimney.

I mean, If he managed to climb out of the chimney, there may be fingerprints. And if he got stuck somewhere inside the chimney, they'll find, um, some other evidence up there.

Yeah, Gremlins.
