Christmas silliness...

Christmas Story for People Having a Bad Day

When four of Santa's elves got sick, and the trainee
elves did not produce the toys as fast as the regular
ones, 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 big 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?"

And so began the tradition of the little angel on top
of the Christmas tree.
