   Vern must have something in his shell to save the day.

   I bet Santa’s spleen is cold, too!

   @masterskrain

   Nothin’ worse than frozen spleen.

   I got shot down over Cleveland once. Apparently, it’s against airline policy to date the passengers.

   He never should have started in South Georgia. It’s almost summer there…

   When I was a wee tot the major news shows (we got three channels then) would have periodic updates from NORAD regarding Santa’s progress toward our town. His arrival was supposed to be around 2:00 am but if you were able to stay up that late It seemed he was always delayed or held up by something so his arrival was never really pinned down. My grandpa, who was always up by 5:00 said one morning that he said goodbye to the jolly old fat man as he was leaving just as grandpa got up. Oh, those were the days. Major networks in collusion with Santa to trick all little girls and boys into believing Santa was on his way but would arrive late enough that the little tricycle motors would be fast asleep before then. I guess the atheists and other believers took that away from us too in the name of religious freedom. And Santa isn’t even a religious figure.

   Time for the giant squid to effect an incredibly amazing rescue!

    NORAD takes all the credit. Santa was actually shot down during a test run over Roswell, NM in 1947. The USAF was so distraught they made up a cover story about an alien spaceship crashing and being hidden by the government. You know, something actually believable which would not traumatically and adversely affect the economy.

    That’s why he was so easy to shoot down. They “track him from the time he leaves the North Pole.”

    Leave the job to Waldo; he travels a lot. I considered Carmen Sandiego, but she’d probably take the presents for herself.

    In this global economy, maybe Santa should move his operations to the South Pole. By the way, there is record amounts of snow and ice there…

    Not to worry, Santa. That Nike base in Cleveland was turned into a park many years ago. And they built a bunch of houses where the radar tracking station was.
