We're trackin' him. My 11 year old is a scientist and reckons it's impossible to deliver all those presents to all those countries because he says 7 times round the world = the speed of light.

Santa is now flying towards The Pyramids, Egypt

Right, but ask him how else can it be done? Beam me up Scottie?

I'm glad to see NORAD wasted time tracking a mythical creature.
Why not tell us how bigfoot is doing, or the loch ness monster, or even give us an update on global warming?

However - something must be amiss, because according to my kid, he did show up at my house.

Well, bah, humbug to you too.

I am surprised that Santa showed for someone who does not believe.
