Puzzle Description:

Bawled and Bald. Explanation: Uncle Jeff (the bald guy) just told his sister's kid the truth about Santa. The truth is that the economic crisis has hit the North Pole hard, and Santa does not have enough money to pay the elves to make the latest techno toy that every kid in the world wants. Uncle Jeff is such a killjoy.

Fun puzzle! Reminds me a little of the Debbie Downer sketches that Saturday Night Live used to do. Good thing Santa's at the North Pole, if he were here in the US his two options would be to ask for a bailout or outsource to China. ;)

Great fun to solve. It looks like she is laughing, though, to me. Or singing. With 4 little hearts around her head. :-)

I have finally decided to take on your series of homophones. I'm looking forward to it, and this puzzle is a good start. :)

Nice story, nice picture!

If folks don't know where to start, line logic with C22 unlocks things.
