Dear Santa,

As you know, Christmas Day is also my birthday. 

 

This year, I've been a very good boy and a hard working dog.

 

Please bring me anything from this list:

 

• CD: Grand River Crossings by Geri Allen
• Book: The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt
• DVD: Johnny Staccato
• Large black Rudy Vallee-style megaphone
• Autographed Nicholas Payton pocket square
• Medjool dates grown in Dateland AZ
• Custom personal cologne designed by David Carlos Valdez
• Working replica of the Mystic Seer
• Hat like the one Mark Gross wears on the cover of Blackside
• Property taxes windfall
• Chili and lime saladitos

 

Thank you!

 

Love,

 

Dmitri
