Praying For Gifts
Two young boys were spending the night at their grandparents the week before Christmas. At bedtime, the two boys knelt beside their beds to say their prayers when the youngest one began praying at the top of his lungs.
"I PRAY FOR A NEW BICYCLE..."
"I PRAY FOR A NEW NINTENDO..."
"I PRAY FOR A NEW VCR..."
His older brother leaned over and nudged the younger brother and said, "Why are you shouting your prayers? God isn't deaf." To which the little brother replied, "No, but Grandma is!" [/b][/left][/color]

Why Santa can't possibly be a man:- Men can't pack a bag.
- Men would rather be dead than caught
wearing red velvet.
- Men would feel their masculinity is threatened...
having to be seen with all those elves.
- Men don't answer their mail.
- Men would refuse to allow their physique to be
described even in jest as anything remotely resembling a "bowlful of jelly."
- Men aren't interested in stockings unless
somebody's wearing them.
- Having to do the Ho Ho Ho thing would seriously
inhibit their ability to pick up women.
- Finally, being responsible for Christmas would
require a commitment.
I can buy the fact that other mythical holiday characters are men...- Father Time shows up once a year unshaven
and looking ominous. Definite guy.
- Cupid flies around carrying weapons.
- Uncle Sam is a politician who likes to point fingers.
Any one of these individuals could pass the testosterone screening test. But not St. Nick. Not a chance. As long as we have each other, good will, peace on earth, faith and Nat King Cole's version of "The Christmas Song," it probably makes little difference what gender Santa is.
I just wish she'd quit dressing like a guy!!!

It was the day after Christmas at a church in San Francisco. The pastor of the church was looking over the cradle when he noticed that the baby Jesus was missing from among the figures of the nativity set.
Immediately he turned and went outside and saw a little boy with a red wagon, and in the wagon was the figure of the little infant, Jesus. So he walked up to the boy and said, "Well, where did you get Him, my fine friend?"
The little boy replied, "I got him from the church."
"And why did you take him?" asked the pastor.
The boy said, "Well, about a week before Christmas I prayed to the little Lord Jesus and I told him if he would bring me a red wagon for Christmas I would give him a ride around the block in it."

I loved teh middle one...how we know Santa is not a man.
Could also say...he never asks directions if he gets lost.
