Title:     Another Santa Day..
Date:      Tue Dec 14 06:40:23 1999

 One particular Christmas season a long time ago, Santa was
 getting ready for is annual trip, but there were problems 
 everywhere.  Four of his elves got sick, and the trainee 
 elves did not produce the toys as fast as the  regular
 ones so Santa was beginning to feel the pressure of being 
 behind  schedule.
 Then Mrs. Claus told Santa that her mom was coming to visit.
 This stressed Santa even more.
 
 When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of
 them  were about to give birth and two had jumped the fence 
 and were out, heaven  knows where.  More stress.
 
 Then when he began to load the sleigh one of the boards cracked,
 and the toy bag fell to the ground and scattered the toys. 
 So, frustrated,  Santa went into the house for a cup of apple 
 cider and a shot of rum.

 When he went to the cupboard, he discovered that the elves 
 had hidden the liquor, and there was nothing to drink. In his 
 frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider pot, and it 
 broke into hundreds of little pieces all over the kitchen floor.  
 He went to get the broom and found that mice had eaten the 
 straw end of the broom.
 
 Just then the doorbell rang, and irritable Santa trudged to 
 the door.  He opened the door, and there was a little angel
 with a great Christmas tree.
 
 The angel said, very cheerfully, "Merry Christmas, Santa. 
 Isn't it a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you.  
 Where would you like me to stick it?"
 
 Thus began the tradition of the little angel on top of the
 Christmas tree.
