Dear Santa,
As I'm sure you've noticed, I've been extra special good this year, even taking on some of your work load ... by stuffing as many stockings as I can. So it's with great admiration and what I'm sure is mutual respect that I humbly submit to you ...

As society and culture has evolved, our ancient ancestors, the cavemen, have found themselves relegated to a punch line. No longer thought of as the bridge from past to present, today they're the wacky inhabitants of Bedrock, the elongated face of your car insurance, or a high school student who, upon de-thawing, attends Encino High with Pauly Shore and a hobbit.
But I say the time has come to give these Neanderthals (are they people? I'm not sure) their due. After all, they gave us the wheel. They gave us fire. And based on cave paintings found in Bulgaria over the weekend, they gave us: The Naked Man.

As a friend, it's incumbent upon you to prevent this calamity, but should the traditional methods of intervention (booze, strippers, more booze) come up empty, you may have to resort to a more personal and heartfelt tactic… reading him the most heartfelt of letters.

The fist-bump. One bro's way of telling another bro, "Clever joke," or, "Thanks for taking the heffer so I could get the hottie," or, "Don't worry, I won't tell your girlfriend/wife." It's essentially the only acceptable form of bro-to-bro contact with the obvious exception of the high five.
