				When four of Santa's elves got sick, the trainee elves did not produce toys 
 
as fast as the regular ones, and Santa began to feel the Pre-Christmas 
 
pressure. 
 
Then Mrs. Claus told Santa her Mother was coming to visit, which stressed 
 
Santa even more. 
 
When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about 
 
to give birth and two others had jumped the fence and were out, Heaven knows 
 
where. 
 
Then when he began to load the sleigh, one of the floorboards cracked, the 
 
toy bag fell to the ground and all the toys were scattered. 
 
Frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of 
 
rum. When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drunk all the 
 
cider and hidden the liquor.. In his frustration, he accidentally dropped 
 
the cider jug, and it broke into hundreds of little glass pieces all over 
 
the kitchen floor. He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all 
 
the straw off the end of the broom. 
 
Just then the doorbell rang, and an irritated Santa marched to the door, 
 
yanked it open, and there stood a little angel with a great big Christmas 
 
tree. 
 
The angel said very cheerfully, 'Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't this 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. _________________ For every person with a spark of genius, there are a hundred with ignition trouble. |
