A Christmas Story
A Christmas Story
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.
So, 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 drank all
the
cider and hidden the rum.
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 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.
Hee! Hee! Jingle Balls, Jingle Balls!!! Giggle!
