Laughs for you, Toys for kids

Did you hear about Macy's firing Santa for a barely, almost, kind of, sort of vaguely off-color joke? Here's the story.

Green Apple--and a few other locally owned independent businesses--still has a sense of humor. Inspired by Flax Art and Design (who are hosting Will Durst this Saturday), we're hosting a comedian in a Santa suit on Saturday to tell jokes to generous Green Apple shoppers. And lucky for you, it's the very funny Will Franken.

Here's the deal: come in this Saturday, December 18 between 2 and 4 pm. Bring an unwrapped new toy for a kid (or donate $5 or more) to the SF Firefigter's Toy Drive, and you can sit on "Santa's" lap and hear a joke. Not for the easily offended.

So if you're planning to buy books as gifts, could use a laugh, and can give a toy to a kid in need, please join us this Saturday from 2-4pm.

If you can't make it, help us spread the word via Twitter, Facebook, etc.!

P.S. The toy drive is most in need of gifts for older girls.
