Santa Makes first Official Deliveries

/
It’s official: for the 2nd year in a row the first official deliveries of Operation Merry Christmas were not even on earth — it was to the International Space Station. In a place without a time zone or a chimney, Santa has made his first deliveries. We’re told that astronaut hearts are very merry at […]
Reindeer Grounded While Santa in Space
Santa might be busy but his reindeer are not. They are enjoying an unusual rest while Santa is delivering to the International Space Station. The reindeer are at the South Pole and they are comfortable. I’m told they are anxious to go again but that without Santa they will just have to wait. The experts […]
World Worries With Santa in Space

Santa is delivering to the International Space station but those on earth are worried Santa won’t make it back. And if he does make it back, they worry if he will be on time.

Tracking Center Goes Into Lockdown

/
Don’t be alarmed, folks. The North Pole Tracking Center just went on lockdown. This is normal behavior when Santa is doing somethinng extra ordinary. They lock down the Tracking Center because the tracking department absolutely has authority during these times. If someone has to be in charge when Santa isn’t available, it is the tracking […]
Santa Launches an Odd Craft from the South Pole
Click the player below to listen to Elf Crash’s call of Santa’s latest trick in flight. Crash seems to think this has to do with delivering to the International Space Station. I have to wonder what the reindeer feel about that. Anyway, it appears that whatever this mystery is will not be a mystery much […]
Santa’s Sleigh Pulls Up at the South Pole

/
Last year the South Pole became kind of like a portable workshop and wrapping center. It was filled with elves and reindeer who had come from the North Pole to work on last minute Christmas projects. They had to do that because of the weather at the North Pole. But not this year. Moments ago […]
Elves Debate What Santa is Up To

/
It is only an hour into Santa’s flight and already there is controversy and debate. Santa continues to track south at a fairly slow pace.
