Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for December 24, 2013

I would like an Estonian Christmas Eve sauna. Meri Kurisumasu, Kāneru Sandāsu. (No comment on reindeer).

But how fast do reindeer fly? :-)

For somebody other than Santa Clause traveling with his reindeer at a constant speed of 48 mph, it would take about 21 days to circle the globe once. Just goes to show how magical Santa is.

I saw a report that the Palastinians use their tunnels into Egypt to get KFC. It takes several hours for a runner to make the round trip.

That reindeer sounds a lot like my old VW, Nice Japanese tradition, I like it. Here I’ll be smoking a brisket (and other things) for the next 18 hours. Hopefully I’ll get to sleep through the holiday so I can try to forget what a crappy year it’s been.

Reindeer traveling at 48 miles an hour??

That’s a pile of reindeer doo doo!

What they mean is kilometers per hour and it won’t travel far at that speed.

It’s nice to know I’m not the only one doing KFC for Xmas.
