Santa Claus

When Rudolph and the other reindeer are unavailable, St. Nick still has to get from house to house. Check out this amazing video to see just how he does it.

As a role model for kindness and generosity, you can't do much better than Santa. But let's face it -- he's not exactly the picture of health. If the jolly old elf can't bring himself to drop a few pounds, at least he's recently given up smoking.

When Chris Burd was 13-years-old he went to the mall in Maplewood, Minn during Christmas time. He was with his three-year-old sister, and to appease her he also sat on the lap of the mall's Santa Claus and asked for gifts. Fast forward 13 years.

A sad sign of the times when kids realize how hard thing are right now. Santa and parents are both saying kids are being a bit more realistic this year with their wish lists. More of the story after the jump.

Here's proof even Santa has a bad day now and then. Santa's arrival at the Gardens Mall in Palm Beach, Florida was delayed Saturday when his beard got caught in rappelling equipment. This looks like it made for a painfully slow decent from the mall's ceiling. I hope this sort of thing doesn't happen when he comes to my house this Christmas. Take the jump to see how Santa gets out of this tricky s

Santa Claus is coming to town! ...and, as we know, that's a lot of towns to visit in one night! NORAD -- whose primary purpose is a missile tracking organization to help keep the U.S.A. and Canada safe -- also follows Santa's flight so you can see everywhere he travels until he reaches the Flint area...
