Is Santa Claus dumping Rudolph?


We wrote earlier about how NORAD will again tomorrow -- for the 50th year in a row -- track the movements of Santa Claus around the world. Now NORAD has further revealed that Santa's sleigh is equipped with a new and ultra-high tech Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking and navigation device, enabling NORAD's 1,000 plus Santa trackers to follow him with acute precision.

According to our well placed sources in the North Pole, Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer was concerned that the new GPS device might result in Santa leaving him behind. Just a few hours ago, Santa held a news conference at which he assured reporters that Rudolph will remain his lead reindeer. As Santa said, "When it's foggy, I need that glowing red nose so I don't collide with any low-flying aircraft!" Which just goes to show that sometimes the old-time technology is best.

Go, Rudolph, go!
