A Christmas story

"Sparky"

>
>
> 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 thus began the tradition of the little angel on top of the
> Christmas tree.
>
>
> Not a lot of people know this. :P
