This Knight could always be depended on to be at the fore of battle in his service to his lord, in fact he does this so exceptionally well that he appears to have the talent for travelling with an impressive speed!

In keeping true to the tradition of his profession, his dress was `nat gay', while his horse was considered good, however this is permitted, as it is essential to his success.

Santa: (waking up and sniffing the air) Hmmm smells like Mrs. Clause has picked up smoking again. (Closes eyes to fall back to sleep, automatically opens them when he hears snowflake yelling) Well what is this commotion about? HOLY GINGERBREAD MEN MY CARPET IS ON FIRE!! (Grabs big jugs of milk from mini fridge and pours them on the fire) Well, what do you have to say for yourself?

What if I was to tell you that the jolly, friendly, and innocent wonderworker that is Santa Claus that we all know and love, didn't always make the ‘nice list?’ Siefker bridges the gap between truth and fiction by embedding the notion that Santa Claus has taken on some strange identities over the past hundreds of years- each varying in name, personality, and drapery. In a daunting and unruly thesis, Siefker unfolds the evolution of Santa Claus and exploited his time as Robin Goodfellow; who is sometimes referred to as Puck, the Pagan fairy of mischief (Wright). However irrational this truth may seem, it is noted that Santa Claus is derived from an accumulation of tales, the earliest of which begin in year 260 AD with the birth of Saint Nicholas

One day, Buddy the elf walked into Santa’s workshop, bored and looking for an adventure.

Aunt Sarah rolled her eyes and clucked haughtily, “Oh really.” She then returned to her business of checking the barn floor for seeds. Her two chicks looked inquisitively at their cousin, but did not dare go near him. The knight—his needle-sword flashing through the air, his feed bag cape flapping behind him, his tin shield firmly grasped in his wing, and his chipped teacup helmet perched precariously upon his head—was not done.

It was December fifteenth and the air was getting even more crisp and colder. I just knew this Christmas was going to be the best!

He decided to stay at the Magic Inn, the most popular hotel in town. He had collected about 17,000 dollars because he worked at the castle for about fifteen years. He never spent any because they offered him food and a room. On his way, he ran into a unicorn. He was really interested because he never saw one before. “You seem very upset,” the unicorn said. Gerard just stared at the unicorn in awe. “I’m Clara, and who are you?” she asked. Gerard replied saying, “It’s none of your business.” “Wow Gerard, you are being really feisty today,” replied the unicorn. Gerard was shocked. All he thought about was how the unicorn knew his name. “I know everything,” she said, almost as if she knew what he was thinking. Gerard was creeped out and started to leave.

Telling your children that a magic man brought them gifts can be cute. But that day you have to sit them down after they come home from Second grade shouting about someone told them that Santa wasn’t real is going to suck. I personally was never told Santa was real, I never went through finding out Santa wasn’t real. I did, however, tell almost everyone that I was friends with
