Nope, I hadn't. Thanks for the news. Tomorrow I'll be going through my old resume pile, to see if he ever applied to us. Here, you never know who you're gonna meet, and it does pay to be careful.

Regards,
Justin

PS- Could you edit the subject line? I'm sure you don't mean he was an elf.

The title of this thread still needs a hyphen. Otherwise, "child" is the subject. And "molesting" is the present-progressive verb. Wink

Now if only the authorities would lock up pedants Smile

Still, the image of a child 'molesting' one of Santa's elves is somewhat amusing. I bet they would go into that book of naughty boys and girls for life.

On the first reading I thought the incident was in Colombia, but it's Columbia. Is that Canada or something?

edit: On rereading, I'm assuming that S.C. means 'South Carolina', correct? In addition to being unimportant and having no rights, we foreigners are so poorly educated that we don't even know the abbreviation for every US state, or even the name of every president! Shocked
