I Know You

      "Now that Christmas is over I can tell you the truth," Herb Saks says to his pal, Missy Putnam.

      "What truth is that?" Missy replies.

      "Oh," Herb says. "Just this!"

      Herb pulls off his head and a beautiful, blooming Christmas Poinsettia sprouts from his neck.

      "Herb, Herb, Herb," Missy shakes her head. "You think I didn't know you were Catholic?"

      Herb smiles the way only a Catholic man with a Poinsettia head can and tries to kiss Missy but she stops him.

      "Wait!" she says. "I have something to tell you, too, Herb!"

      Missy pulls off her head and Herb's head sprouts from her neck.

      "Oh God!" Herb smiles. "Santa really was listening!"

      They kiss so long that by the time they stop it's practically Christmas again.--TK
