Thread: Bah Humbug! (funny)

When four of Santa's elves got sick, and the trainee elves did
not produce the toys as fast as the regular ones, Santa was beginning
to feel the pressure of being behind schedule.Then Mrs. Claus told
Santa that her Mom was coming to visit. This stressed Santa even
more.When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of
them were about to give birth and two had jumped the fence and were
out, heaven knows where. More stress.Then when he began to load the
sleigh one of the boards cracked, and the toy bag fell to the ground
and scattered the toys. So, frustrated, Santa went into the house for
a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum. When he went to the
cupboard, he discovered that the elves had hidden the liquor, and
there was nothing to drink. In his frustration, he accidentally
dropped the cider pot, and it broke into hundreds of little pieces
all over the kitchen floor. He went to get the broom and found that
mice had eaten the straw end of the broom. Just then the doorbell
rang, and irritable Santa trudged to the door. He opened the door,
and there was a little angel with a great big Christmas tree. The
angel said, very cheerfully, "Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't it 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.
