Santa Clause is real!!!!!

[wart57]

I am so sick of seeing TV shows and movies talking about how Santa is not real, I am sorry, but Santa happened to be one of my favorite memories of Christmas past. Now, I doub't I will be able to re-live that joy with my daughter. Not only do I have to threaten her cousins with bodily harm if they don't keep their mouths shut, but I can't even watch television with her else she hears someone talking about there not being a Santa Clause. I hate the world!

I haven't noticed that. What shows are you talking about?

I discovered something when my kids were growing up. Kids are basically stupid. Just make some crapola up and they will take it hook, line, and sinker.

Bah. Kids just keep faking that the believe in Santa because they are afraid if they own up it will their parents won't be compelled to give them Santa presents each Christmas.

Except Wart. He believed.

Not only did I believe, but I figured out at by age 6 that the way he did it was a clever pattern that took advantage of the earths rotation. That, and cancel out communist Russia, and he had plenty of time. I knew he had to work East to West, so I always would look into the Eastern sky to try to see some hint.

I still believe in Santa Clause. If you get more joy from giving during the Holiday season than getting, you are Santa.

I do love giving a great present.

Last evening, while my girlfriend was teaching my daughter how to ice skate at Steinberg and the Christmas songs were playing on the PA I was feeling rather Christmas-y.

If you get more joy out of giving during the Holiday season than receiving, then you are a fool.

A fool and his money are soon parted. This is the time to clean house wart. You need to use that giving/getting thing to YOUR advantage, not others.

If I ever have kids, they aren't going to believe any myths for one second if I can help it. They'll get the straight dope from the get go. I remember being annoyed when I finally got someone to admit to me that Santa wasn't real. I didn't understand the point of making someone believe something that wasn't real just because they aren't old enough to know better.

And I freaking love Christmas.
