Ever since I had that operation on the left side of my face (to remove a benign growth) back in late February, 2013, I had been growing a beard and mustache. So, since Christmas is coming up, I thought I'd take advantage of all that hair on my face, by putting on a Santa cap, and passing myself off as the 'big guy'... even though this picture was taken near my home in Margate, Florida - instead of at the North Pole!
My thanks to
Funimal for using his cell phone camera to take a special holiday 'photo-op', which I had excerpted (using my PC's Paint.net program).

I'm glad that you'd brought that to everyone's attention, Haystack. Don't let the beard and mustache fool you, folks... It's real, and not some costumed hair I'd put on. It only looks lopsided because I no longer have any muscular control of the left side of my face (when 'nerve damage' occurred during the aforementioned growth surgery, many months ago). I can raise neither my left eyebrow nor the left side of my mouth (to form a smile). This is about as 'happy' as I can look for this 'photo-op'...
Too bad I didn't have a Santa suit to go with the cap (let alone the beard and mustache). I was actually wearing a 'Pepe Le Pew' T-shirt at the time... If any of you would like to see the full photograph (of me with the 'Pepe' shirt) - from which I'd excerpted - let me know and I'll post it at a later date...
