    Face it, Calvin. You’re getting coal in your stocking. It’s your destiny.

    I know how Calvin feels. Instead of the 250 pound bomb he’s carrying he gets a load of coal. Been getting those for years….

    Hope @MayKitten get’s her 100 proof Rocket Fuel. Remember, when it comes to liquor…better to share than receive…or you will stagger and weave…

    It would have rhymed better if he had said “Sincerely, St. Nick”.

    Being good is pretty hard, Calvin. But trying to fake it may be even harder.

    When only the wellbehaved get presents, the others, who are not so good become jealous and you must fear, they do more evel deeds in their rage and anger. To give them a chance and show them, how they can get presents too, doing good deeds, that will help them perhaps on a better way!!

    This is great! My youngest son is 14 and still has trouble behaving, he drives his sisters crazy, makes them scream and that drives me crazy.

    Not to quibble, but “It was written by hand” would’ve fit the meter better.

    If Santa changed the rules in the ‘80s, I guess that would explain why today the Wall Street bankers get the fat bonuses at year’s end for tanking the economy.

    “It was all just a dream, and yet, perhaps nay;It may be that Santa, sly old elf, in his way;Was saying ‘Just be Calvin, forever, and a day’.”

    He can’t be good any other time. So I can see why it’d be so hard.

    Another reason I did not believe in Santa. It seemed that the really mean and rotten kids got all the great stuff for Christmas.

    For the anti-religious free-looting elitist Left, the above is not a dream. This is their vision of Santa Clause and life.
