SANTA CLAUS

You know what? I like Santa Claus! I think he's freakin' awesome!!! Just think about it--he's a guy who's not really young (at least, not anymore) and lives up where it is cold ALL the time. I mean, a lot of old people go to Florida, but Santa's so cool (pun intended) that he lives at the North Pole! He takes care of reindeer and gives jobs to poor little elves who have a hard time finding work on their own. He's also been married for a long, long time--hundreds of years, in fact.

Of course, the best thing about Santa is his willingness to travel all over the world just to give toys to children. How sweet is that? He never asks for anything in return--though I know he loves cookies and milk. Well, I guess he does have one request, "Don't be naughty--be nice." The nice children get presents and the naughty ones get coal. That's simple enough to remember, right?

No, no, don't be all "adulty" with me now. I do believe in Santa Claus! Even when you're old and grey if you still believe in Santa you still have a piece of childhood.

Santa is awesome!!!

And now a word from the king...
