Pierre the Super Star

December 20, 2010 by Jeanne

Move over, Morris. Look out, Dewey.

Pierre is a super star.

For the second year in a row, the Charlotte Courthouse newspaper will run a picture of Mr. Pierre in the Christmas edition, due on new stands tomorrow.  You may wish to buy your copy early, for there’s sure to be a run on the paper when folks realize that Pierre is back!

This year’s picture is entitled: Stalking Through a Winter Wonderland.

Here is Mr. Pierre, out in the snow storm we had last week.

Pierre wishes to say,

“Thank you Aunt Crystal (Crystal Vandegrift, who works at the newspaper) for choosing my picture again for the paper.  I shall autograph a copy for you.”
