I just watched the Story of Santa Claus and can't believe that they were able to put together an entire list for every child in the world and they mapped out the entire trip, but then they had to make sure they completed the trip in 12 hours and they were flying east across the Pacific Ocean towards Europe. Did no one there know about the International Date Line? He has about 32 hours to complete that trip, assuming he starts at 10pm in the South Pacific and goes west, finishing around 6am. If he finished in 12 hours, you people in California would have to be asleep by 8am on Christmas Eve! Stupid cartoon.
Also, Santa gave one kid in an orphanage a pocket knife for Christmas...
