My grandpa, Grandpa Elf, knew Santa way back before Santa was St. Nick. Back then, he was known as Kris Kringle and that was when Kris was orchestrating and coordinating his idea to give good kids toys.

Santa had decided to use a sleigh, pulled by reindeer, and employed elves for assistance. He and Grandpa Elf were discussing how he should dress. Obviously, Santa should dress warm for those cold winter nights. They decided to use a special felt/wool material that would keep off the wind and be comfortable too. This was way before spandex and goretex.

Grandpa Elf asked, "What color?" Kris replied, "I'll tell you what color. Grandpa Elf was wearing a white gold necklace and medalion with a Christmas Emerald. Now, emeralds are all green, except a Christmas Emerald. They're brighter than a ruby red. Very rare indeed.

"Any man who can travel the world in one night is a rare man indeed." Kris took a look at Grandpa Elf and said, "It'll be Christmas Emerald red!"

The SP-1 is a concept sleigh encouraged by PETA. PETA has complained that the reindeer don't get adequate rest intervals and that the temperatures the deer must work in are inhumane.

I actually like the SP-1. It has a windshield, roof, doors, heat, subwoofers, and bling!! It's propane fueled. (Everybody's going green.) And that means no more reindeer droppings. If you've ever found unexplained droppings on your roof, some elf missed it with the pooper scooper.

Santa's alot more traditional than I am. He still wants to use the old sleigh, so we'll see.
