My 2 cents on this


Santa Clause:
There once was a Saint Nick--a preist/father/what ever you call him. He used to deliever "presents" to the orphans during christmas. Presents is in quotes, because it was food and candy, nothing huge, but for orphans it was huge. Hence the stockings for the candy.

Naughty and Nice:
Smart parents came up with the concept of being good=presents and bad=coal, dont remember how many times my parents used that on me before christmas. Everytime i did something bad they would say "I think i just saw an elf" so of course i would be good for a while. So if you have an uncontrolable kid use that on him before christmas and he will be good.

Flying reindeer:
Saint nick used a sled and since santa clause lives in the north pole and reindeer live in cold tempatures, santa's sled is pulled by reindeer. Since there are oceans and reindeer are slow, the reindeer must fly for santa to be able to deliever all the presents.

Santa as Fat:
Fat people are inherently jolly, good, and nice. America IS the fattest nation--see a connection ;).

FWIW, it ain't Jesus' birthday...the man known as Jesus was most likely born in the spring. Dec. 25 was picked to coincide with a Pagan holiday celebrating the winter solstice.

And...stop being a Scrooge! :p
