That Ol' Christmas Feeling

Even Santa can't help himself -- there's just something about this tree. This moment unfolded at Pegasus Plaza, just outside my apartment window really, midway through the Dallas Santa Rampage last weekend. Here are some more photos from the Santa pub crawl/pillow fight up at the Observer.

Downtown Dallas kept up the holiday spirit last week with our first Unsilent Night walk -- pretty good turnout for the first time 'round, too. Here's a video I shot for the paper.

Confronted by all this holiday joy, some folks downtown were moved to arson, too. Kids acting out on vacation? Disgruntled homeless guys fighting for the right to ignite? We may never know.
