Day 116
Santa has all the answers
July 20th, 2010
I'm walking across America.
That's the idea, at least. I'm walking westward from New York City for nine months or so. If everything goes according to plan, I'll be in Oregon when the clock runs out. If nothing goes according to plan, maybe I'll end up in Peru or Mongolia or Pennsylvania. You can read all about the details of my trip if you're so inclined.

Here's my progress so far:
I especially like his seminar designed to improve the health of his elves: “Dealing with mistletoe lung.”
My only 1st. I guess it set a new ‘benchmark’ for my comments. (grins)
Go Matt and “proclaim liberty throughout all the land, and to all the inhabitants thereof.” Oh wait, that’s Charleston “Moses” Heston not Ray “Santa” Sonsini – sorry, my bad.
good one young young.
So…who declared him the “wise one?” People that usually go around proclaiming how smart usually aren’t. ;-) These are the same people who give unsolicited advice by saying “If I were you…’ Ba ha ha ha!
or is it ba humbugg…..season appropriate.
That is an interesting claim, without saying a thing! Must be more to this…are there more benches from “Santa”?
How unflinchingly peculiar.
(I wrote about you on my blog, just in case any of my readers lie in your path.)
Santa’s real name is Ray Sonsini? Huh! Go fig!
LOL. Really, I didn’t know that either. I’m glad they cleared up this life long puzzle for us. What great wisdom that is to know.
And, it makes life better knowing because knowing is half the battle!.
And to think, it’s been right there on the bus bench all this time!
… G.I.Joe!
Glad somebody got the reference in there.
It is Ray Beasley from West Paterson, NJ…..West Belt Mall Santa. Google it …you will be surprised.
Hey…What’s the deal???…my brother is “Santa”…and he looks more like him too…
Well all we need is the area code now and we too can become “enlightened” by Santa. Don’t know if I really want the “private guidance” though.
That’s easy – montana only has 1 area code :)
Only 1 for the whole state???? We’ve got like I don’t know how many here in Ohio. There are about 3 around Northeast Ohio where I am. Can’t imagine just 1 for an entire state. Wow.
Remember, Dorinda: There’s only about 5 people per square mile in Montana.
Yeah, it’s just hard to fathom it. So much space, so few people and only 1 area code. Boggles the mind. I would have thought because of the space between the state because it’s so big they would split it. Guess it goes by how many people/phones there are and in use.
Houston alone has 3 area codes. I’m not sure how many there are in Texas, but I’ll bet the Dallas/Ft. Worth area also has 3. So that’s six not counting the other major cities and all the rest of Texas.
And you thought Santa spent all year at the North Pole making toys! Now, we know what he does the rest of the year.
Hahaha! Someone’s got to feed those reindeer, and the free toy business just ain’t what it used to be.
Are you able to say where you are staying? We can bring you treats!
try emailing Matt direct
Is it me, or does that guy look like Harrison Ford??!?
Or perhaps Harrison Ford could play him in the movie version of his life? :O
Wow, you’re right, Harrison Ford at 70 maybe, curiously unlined in the face though.
Harrison isn’t 70 already? Born in 1942 – let’s see, 2010 – 1942 = 68 – nearly 70!
PLEASE! I’m trying to go to bed! Now I have to go Flickr Zoom!
OMG! He does look like a more elderly Harrison Ford!
he looks more like Kenny Rogers, pre-eye lift.
dang.. thought it was Charleton Heston. (heh)
He does look like Charlton Heston too – on Mount Ararat with the 10 Commandment tablet!
is there a way to see what Matt’s route is?
In the right upper corner of the website, click on “details of my trip”, then “my route.” There’s a great map of where he’s been and where he’s going!
Janine is my friend !!! She is the true wise one. She can throw this Ray “Santa” Sonsini down. hahahaha
ohhh we have ourselves a rumble. I’ll get Kurt.
Hey! Me too! I wanna be in it too! “Let’s get ready to rumbbblllllleeeeee!!!!!!” Oh YEAH.
There are dangers everywhere……….
Is that Santa as in Saint Ray?
