The letter in panel 2 comes from an actual request I heard on the radio. One of Santa’s Helpers was looking over some of the letters from kids and kids who survived “Superstorm” Sandy were asking for underwear, food, and a new house instead of a Wii U or toys. According to the news report he had to stop reading all the requests at some point because it was breaking his heart. That inspired this strip.
