Here's a little Christmas history that I stole from FABO:

Once upon a time, when four of Santa's elves got sick, the trainee elves couldn't make toys as fast as the regular ones, and Santa began to feel the Pre-Christmas pressure.

Then Mrs. Claus told Santa her Mother was coming to visit, which stressed Santa even more.

When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about to give birth and two others and Rudolph had jumped the fence and were out, Heaven only knows where.

Then when he began to load the sleigh, three of the floorboards cracked, the toy bag fell to the ground and all the toys were scattered all over the snow and ice.

Frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum.
But when he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had beaten him to it, drunk all the cider and hidden the liquor. In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug, and it broke into hundreds of little pieces all over the kitchen floor.

He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all the straw off the end of the broom.

Well, just then the doorbell rang, and an irritated Santa marched to the door, yanked it open, and there stood a little angel with a great big Christmas tree. The angel said very cheerfully, 'Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't this 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.

Not a lot of people know this.

It was news to me too!
