Will Santa Be Forced to Relocate?

2007-12-08T22:05:00.000-08:00

A shocking study was recently released by the Swedish engineering consulting firm SWECO. National Public Radio reports: “ A Swedish engineering firm still believes in Santa Claus, but it says the North Pole is all wrong for him. To finish his job in time for Christmas morning, the firm calculated that Santa's base should be in Kyrgyzstan. It took into account the main population centers and the Earth's rotation. The firm also found that Santa has 34 microseconds for each chimney stop. That's one fast Santa.”

I’d like to know who ordered the study and what their ties are to Kyrgyzstan. Is Ronald Snow cashing Kyrgyzstani reelection-campaign checks? I’m sure their tourism board would love to have Santa’s operation lining their pockets, unless being the world’s largest producer of fermented mare’s milk is still pulling ‘em in. The whole thing smacks of H.O.H.O.H.O. and its increasing marginalization of Christmas.

You can hear the N.P.R. report here and read more about this story at msnbc.com and The Moscow Times.

SANTA REMOVED

2007-12-07T23:54:00.000-08:00

A Washington DC judge took the extraordinary step of removing the Father of Christmas on Tuesday after concluding that holiday icon Santa Claus violated a higher moral code when he discriminated against children across the world with his "Naughty and Nice" list.

In a case that pared ethics with the traditions of a major holiday, Judge David Hollenback made pointed criticisms of Santa's "dictatorial" behavior, saying that he violated the "golden rule" by enforcing the names on his list. Judge Hollenback insisted that Christmas is about loving your neighbor, not punishing them.

In the absence of the beloved holiday figure, the government has stepped in with a multi-lateral committee, H.O.-H.O.-H.O. (House for Organizing Holiday Opportunity and Happiness Oversight). Ronald Snow, Chairman of the newly formed committee, announced that there will be several changes made to Christmas this year. "I will not rest until Christmas is fun and safe for everyone." H.O.-H.O.-H.O. is expected to roll out their changes in the coming weeks.

No Ho Ho?

2007-11-18T00:00:00.000-08:00

Australia's Daily Telegraph reports that some Santa’s down under are fighting back against ridiculous regulations. “Santas across Sydney are rebelling against attempts to ban their traditional greeting of ‘ho, ho, ho’ in favour of ‘ha, ha, ha’.”

Santa Sued

2007-11-17T18:28:00.000-08:00

This morning a class action lawsuit was filed against Santa Claus over the discriminatory nature of the naughty and nice list. Disgruntled parents from across the globe have banded together to fight what the suit terms as "discrimination and oppression." The prosecution had even stronger words. "The case is not only examining the fairness of the list, but the inter-workings of the holiday as a whole. Think about it, here we have an old man with a beard who breaks into your house, eats your food, and leaves presents for your kids."

While the entire world watches for the results of this groundbreaking case, the greater holiday community into a general panic. If Christmas isn't safe from lawsuits, is Halloween next?
