Santa, dead?

Santa Claus is just a derivative of Sinterklaas, which comes from Sint (saint) Nicolaas, a bishop in ancient myra, turkey. So it's not just a title, it's from a name.

Thank you for the history lesson. I now reminisce about "The Jetsons" even less.

Deacon: In the back of one of my Knights of the Dinner Table mags, someone adapted "A Visit From St. Nicholas" into "'Twas the Knights' Game on Christmas"... where Knuckles, El Ravager, and Teflon Billy find out (the hard way, of course) that Santa Claus (the main one, going back to my last post) is monk/thief/fighter/mage/assassin... or something ridiculous like that. If I felt like getting out of this chair, I'd look it up... as it is, I'll probably post it later.

If santa is real, how is he in so many shops at once AND looks a little different at each of them.

Santa doesn't do every house by himself. He went to the Raelians and had himself cloned a million times over a while back. So now he has clones all around the world... everywhere! That's why you see so many of him at stores, and how he gets presents to everyone in one night. Because he's cloned himself.

/me nodself.

Blackjack, didn't you read Baggi's post?

There are several Santas scattered all over the world, and each of them is assigned to several houses... and a Department store or church to serve as a base of operations. Meanwhile, the chief Santa Claus lives in the north pole and coordinates everything from there.

That's why there's so many Santas, each of them looking slightly different.

A special image for glue: If all these santas were CLONES, there wouldn't be the difference in their appearances that Blackjack alluded to.

Anyone notice that the artical used the word Cintrifigul force when that's only a fancy word for anertia? The real word is Cintripetal force...

Damn my pyhsics class.
