I got back from the Portland Santarchy/Santacon a coupla hours ago. My feet still hurt and i got windburn pretty bad.

230 santas at our peak. Two very tiny strip clubs. One stipper looked like a Coop drawing brought to life; it was great.

Nobody got arrested(i think), but we had up to 6 bike cops following us around.

Photos coming soon.

Alex Dyer, a spokesman for the group, said Santarchy was a worldwide movement designed to protest the commercialization of Christmas.

The line i gave people was, "You know that 'War on Christmas' thing? We're it."

This holiday means so much more than being gut-bustingly hilarious.
