Civil Servant Santa
Charlie Cameron, 60, is a federal employee who has a nice little side business this time of year. He's a traveling Santa, the Albuquerque Tribune reports. Make an appointment with him, and he'll show up at your holiday gathering and entertain the kids --or the grown-ups -- for $50 an hour. That adds up to about $1,000 per holiday season, which Cameron says is just enough to cover his travel expenses and pay for a nice dinner with his wife -- who plays the part of Mrs. Claus, naturally.
