Years ago I learned there was no Santa Clause ... then I met my good friend Thor;
we spent Saturday at the Somerton, Az "Tamale Festival" amongst a crowd estimated at
20,000 people.
Thor dons his costume each year at this time and mingles with crowds at malls and other public
places bringing cheer and joy to the hearts of numerous children and their parents ... he receives
no remuneration for this but does it as a community service and considers himself "paid in full" by the look of surprise and happiness on the children's faces.
