What? thats not what I paid for. I paid for Santa to be tossed in pond while tied down with concrete blocks and heavy chains not with scuba gear.

I knew I shouldn't have bought a hit man service on a $9.99 buy it now listing from eBay.

Anyone got fat Tonys cell number? I got two jobs for him now!

Just think of some of the unintended consequences: before you decommission that log fire, and, replace it with a fish tank.

Global Spec one ups the Globe and World News.

Top story - Photos of Santa delivering toys to Atlantis inside this exclusive edition. Although unable to provide the exact location of Atlantis, we can tell you it is somewhere in the Bermuda Triangle.

After realizing the lack of chimneys and alarming number of ADT home systems installed, Santa figured that the next best thing was through the water system.

Santa learns the hard way not to drink and fly. He fell out of his sleigh doing barrel rolls over the Carribian after a few too many eggnogs.
