they are thinking of changing "merry christmas" to "happy holidays" and the "12 days of Christmas" to the "12 days of giving" here in Canada so no culture or religion will be offended....

shows how sad our government is sometimes..

Wow, and I thought the U.S. government was lame.

Santa Clause is called Joulupukki in Finland

And remember, Santa lives in Korvatunturi, Finland. If you don't believe, try to check it somewhere

Santa Claus ="Telapo" in Hungarian

In Iceland there are 13 santa's

1. Stekkjastaur (SHEEP WORRIER)
2. Giljagaur (GULLY GAWK)
3. Stúfur (STUBBY)
4. Þvörusleikir (SPOON LICKER)
5. Pottaskefill (POT LICKER)
6. Askasleikir (BOWL LICKER)
7. Hurðaskellir (DOOR SLAMMER)
8. Skyrgámur (SKYR GLUTTON)
8. Bjúgnakrækir (SAUSAGE STEALER)
9. Gluggagægir (WINDOW PEEPER)
10. Gáttaþefur (DOOR SNIFFER)
11. Ketkrókur (MEAT HOOK)
12. Kertasníkir (CANDLE BEGGAR)

They singly come to town from the mountains (where they live)

The first one comes at the 12th des. and leaves 25th des.
The seconds comes at 13th des. and leaves 26th des.
and so on...

Their mother is named Grýla and is a evil woman, and their daddy is named Leppalúði and is a bum.

They steal food and stuff from everyone because they are very poor..

here are the parents, Grýla and Leppalúði (lúði means looser)

if you've been a bad kid, then Grýla comes and throws you in her bag and climbs up the montains with you and then eats you.



These are stubby (nr 3) and Candle beggar (nr 12)

Since 'Santa Claus' was invented by coca cola, no i don't believe in him.

St Nicholas however is the legend everybody thinks brings presents. Unfortunatley I don't believe in that load of wank either

Since when has he ever helped us with our chistmas shopping?

Telapo.. That sounds good
