Ugly Sweaters and Reindeers


Nice gathering of ugly sweaters at the Commons on the 26th. 1st prize for ugliest sweater went to Wisconsin/Minnesota/Iowa's own Lindsey, who took home cola flavored jelly bean defecating reindeer. Oh! and I played a couple tunes with nice audience participation on my rendition of Tom Waits' "Chocolate Jesus".

Thanks to everyone who came down and participated.
