The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for December 03, 2024

Oh boy! Does the chief plan on making an album?

Really laughed at this! (Note the fullness of the money bags, and their increased size!)

I think that it’s time for Santa to DUMP a ton of coal on the Chief’s – desk!!!

/SHEESH\

LookingGlass, How about a money bag full of coal?

Took a year of worry but I don’t have Parkinsons or Parkinsonism. Found out today it is my old enemy, agent orange wants to go another round. This IS great news, I was depressed about the 1st 2 choices. MRI here I come.

Green Christmas, always starts after Black Friday and Cyber Monday

Ebenezer Scrooge is his hero.

You can’t take it with you when you die, but I think he’s sure going to try.

Wring his hands and churning out tax tricks to avoid income tax.

the money bags look festive!

He must have a very trustworthy cleaning service that comes in at night.

Next he’ll be dancing with Danny F Kaye.

“Oh – bah, humbug!” Steve Austin: [feigning gruffness] in The Six Million Dollar Man, The Bionic Christmas Carol (1976)

… and $6,000,000 in 1976 is equivalent to $33,286,186.29 today.

Careful Rancid, Rich man in Bible went to Hell. Nary a drop of water for his wicked tongue. Brutus would still send you a barrel full if LORD allowed it. But Alas too late.

Green Christmas. Like dollars.

The Chief does not hide his happiness or money……….as long as nobody sees it!!

where the trees are still standing, because my axe is still missing. guess I… will decorate a bush. :D

Stan Freburg would be proud.

24-36% interest credit cards being used by people with a credit score lower than body temperature.

Greed is a sickness for many. Just remember…you can’t take it with you! ☺️

I wonder how bad his voice is too – to match his personality.

I’m sure that Ebenezer Scrooge had a similar song during his time. It IS the time when the company makes most of its profits for the year.You should have drawn a chart showing sales going up.That would have brought a big ger smile to go with the song….

Of course you are, Veeblefester.

Why that sentimental old softy!

♪♫ “Rockin’ around the money bags, have a happy holiday…” ♪♫

Oh the weather outside is frightful/ but my money bags are so delightful/ so as long as the profit flows/ let ‘em grow, let ‘em grow, let ‘em grow!!

As walter alluded to, Stan Freberg had an album cut called Green Christmas , which did a very good stab at holiday greed. So good, in fact, radio stations wouldn’t play it. It is one of his best though.

He not only gets to count the yearly profits, but he also gets to plan the annual end-of-year-layoffs-because-of-“low”-profits… laying off people usually makes the stock soar, which is good timing if one wants to end the year on a “bang”…

He has all that money, yet there are probably moths flying out when he opens his wallet. He’s a money hoarder. Looked at that way, I kind of feel sorry for him. And his wife.

Must have been a banner year for tea cozies.

It’s time for him to get a visit from the Christmas ghosts.

That does it! I’m going into the Tea Cozy business. You read it here first, folks…..$$$$$$$

Have yourself a very wealthy Christmas.

You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch…

When I lived in Michigan I always dreamed of a “green Christmas” but it wasn’t money I was thinking of. I hate winter and snow and ice and everything not nice. Fortunately I was able to move to Arizona and now all my Christmases are….well, maybe not completely green, but green…and tan…and gravel-colored. And most importantly, in the 70s instead of the 20s.

If Rancid is dreaming of a green Christmas, maybe he’s The Snow Miser from The Year Without a Santa Claus.. Or perhaps a relative of Snow Miser.

He needs to listen to Stan Freberg’s Green Christmas
