So ye have been warned - if ya get him from Santy send him back ta Slasher's with a few bottles of rum fer me troubles. I'll tell ye, me nerves are faught with the worry.

In a pigs eye! Truth be known Maddog and Gallant TEd are sitting in Slasher's at this very moment drinking ill-gotten rum that has been sent by kind but gullible people from all over the world.

Get a job, you errant bears. I fell for ye scheme in 2002.
Fool me twice? - shame on you!
"Santa stole the bear" - the oldest con game known to man!
