Hello Christian and readers,

Easy to see why there's a pro Santa writer in a Muslim country. (;->)

Now as anyone knows, engineers live in a computer, mostly in the vacuum 
inside the CRT. Being shot at by that scanning electron beam doesn't help 
thier thinking process either, hard to concentrate under fire. Being 
illogical and impractical they delight in complicating the simplest 
things and making profound yet incomprehensible statements, usually in 
Greek. Then they spend countless hours pondering why a bumblebee flies 
perfectly well when all thier calculations say it is aerodynamically 
impossible.

Now they try to say that reindeer can't fly when any child who has looked 
skyward has seen a team of them led by one with the required navigation 
lights pulling a sleigh driven by a fat guy dressed all in red shouthing 
HO HO HO. (Probably drunk and hoping the FAA doesn't find out he hasn't a 
pilot's license and his aircraft isn't certified.)

Now the rest of that engineering blather can be tossed out immediately 
since the children once again prove the engineers to be all wet. These 
computer driven genii are working on the assumption that there is but one 
Santa flying around at near light speed. Take the children out shopping 
and they'll point out a Santa on every corner and at least one in every 
major store. Heck, the malls are loaded with them and some of them are 
loaded too, they may be identified by their breath and slurred speech.

Now childrens' logic dictates (even if adults refuse to listen) that when 
the malls close on Christmas Eve, these Santas hop in the sleighs parked 
up on the roof and fire up the reindeer. Since they have been standing 
out in the cold all day one or two may sputter and cough, but a little of 
that starting fluid Santa has been embibing fixes them right up, just 
stand aside in case one backfires.

Now if adults would only explain why there is a Santa on every corner, 
that is there's a whole fleet of Santas making those deliveries so they 
arrive on time (next day air) these poor kids who grow up to be engineers 
could understand that a child's mind is not to be abandoned to science.

No, Santa isn't dead, just look up tonight and you'll see him. Since 
FedEx and UPS are grounded for the holiday those lights just have to be 
Rudolph. The occasional blue flash followed by a sharp >BANG< is him too, 
that stuff that makes his nose red also causes backfires. That's why 
Santa has him in the lead as far from him as possible, not for his 
navigational skills. OH OH OH!

One final note, the non Christians I know believe in Santa, each in thier 
own way. He's not Christian, not Muslim, not Buddist, not anything 
really. He's not connected with any one religion but rather all. He's the 
spirit of good will to all. Merry Christmas to ALL and to ALL a good 
night.
