I admit it. This blog is NOT consistent. What it is keeps changing. Right now, it's pretty much a place where I keep photos, videos, and links to websites that interest me. Before that, I wrote a few blogs myself and still do once in a blue moon. But most of the stuff before the links are just reprints of articles I found interesting.

SPIRITUALITY/RELIGION and ENTERTAINMENT: What If Someone Punched Jesus In The Face?
Wednesday, November 28, 2007
CULTURE/SOCIETY: Santa Claus is a Vampire, Part Two
This is from a blog called The Bionic Genius Roundtable. - OlderMusicGeek

If I told you there was a man who never seemed to die but lived on century after century, crept about only at night, snuck into our homes through the use of magic, could command animals, kept small people as slaves, could fly through the night sky and had a fascination with children, naturally you’d think I was describing a vampire. But NO! That’s a description of Santa Claus. So, is Santa Claus a vampire? Let’s look at some disturbing facts…
There are several different legends and folktales that make up the modern day depiction of Santa Claus but many of those folktales can be traced back to Europe several centuries ago. This was a time when the dark forests of Europe were rife with vampires the way we have squirrels today. In fact, a certain man known as Vlad “The Impaler” Tepes ruled in the Balkans in the mid-15th century. It could just be a coincidence that Santa Claus was becoming well-known during this time but…
Santa Claus is immortal or should I say “undead”… He appears year after year, century after century.
Forget the mall Santa Clauses. The real Santa Claus only comes out one day a year - check that – one night a year. He is nocturnal. Is this by choice or a dire need to avoid the burning rays of the sun?
The big beard and padded costume help to conceal anything suspicious. The droopy moustache hides the sharp canines. The padding of thick coats and pants hides his bone-thin cadaverous frame. The red costume doesn’t show any spilled blood. Why is his face such an unnaturally bright red hue as to beg comparisons such as “cheeks like roses and a nose like a cherry”? One word: makeup.
How does Santa enter our homes? Not through the front door. Remember that no vampire can enter a home unless invited. This necessitates gaining entry through other methods. The chimney is available but only if you are able to somehow transform into something small enough to fit down a chimney and then somehow fly back up. The form of a bat would fit this bill nicely…
Who builds the toys? We are told that it’s elves but they resemble children. Children who never age but are trapped in a loop of undying servitude perhaps… The cute little “elves” seem to be early victims who are forever trapped in childlike bodies (like Kirsten Dunst in “Interview with a Vampire”) but apparently are willing to help him by building the toys that he delivers.
I am in no way suggesting that Santa Claus is truly evil. Obviously his generosity is sincere and enormous. But I think the facts add up to only one conclusion and that is that he is a vampire. Possibly a reformed vampire who is trying to make up for his past transgressions. Sneaking into our homes once a year to drink our sweet blood while we sleep may be a necessary evil for him. However, because of his gentle (though unbeating) heart, he repays us with toys and gifts. He is a great man and we are lucky to have his spirit with us no matter what manner of creature he may be. So this Christmas, sleep deeply and leave your collar just a little loose for old Santa Claus.

CULTURE/SOCIETY: Santa Claus is a Vampire
It took me a long time to realize this. And an even longer time to face the awful truth. But now that I know, there's no turning back.
I'm sorry to tell you this people, but the truth must be told!
And that awful truth is - so-called dear old Santa Claus is part of the blood-sucking Undead!
How do I know this you ask! Let me tell the evidence I have gathered, and then you can decide for yourself.
Evidence #1:
When you rearranged the letters of "Santa's Workshop" you get "Satan's Porkshow"! I'm not sure what pigs have to do with vampirism, but I think the cloven hooves may be involved.
Evidence #2:
When you rearranged Claus all you get is Lucas or Sulac. I don't know if Lucas has anything to do with anything, and Sulac just sounds like a Vulcan name. But that would explain the elves' pointy ears!
But wait! Claus is short is Nickalaus. And Ol' Nick is a nickname for the Devil!
Old Nick n. The Devil; Satan. See Regional Note at Old Scratch.

Old Nick Pronunciation: 'Ol(d)-'nik Function: noun-- used as a name of the devil
Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary
Ah, but I hear saying. Oh sure, Santa is Satanic. We've been told about that for years! But that doesn't make him a vampire! Maybe he's just a devil-worshipper.
Just be patient, my dear reader. My evidence is still mounting.
Evidence #3:
As long as we have known old so-called Saint Nicholas, he has always been old... but he never has died. I mean let's face it, people. He has been an old man for at least a hundred and eighty years.
And he's been smoking all that time. And still no lung cancer?! I mean, com'on, people! It's only undead lungs that could handle that much smoking!But wait I have further evidence!
Evidence #4:
When does so-called Saint Nick do his run? At night, that's when! He goes around the world at night!
And where does so-called Saint Nick live? At the North Pole, where is night all day for six monts a year. Ha, what a place for a being who would turn to ashes in sunlight! (For convenience though, we will ignore the fact that the sun also shines all day six months a year at the pole, making it a nasty place for a vampire in the summer.)
Now things are starting to sound more convincing, huh? I know though, some of you are saying, "Okay, so he's a night-loving immortal Satanist. So are a lot a plastic-surgeon using movie stars! That doesn't make him a vampire!"
Evidence #5:How does such a big man get down chimneys, especially when a lot of us only have a small pipe coming out of the roof of our houses? Well, if you remember your vampire lore, my dear readers, you know that vampires can change into smoke! Than our big man can get into any home he wants!
Okay, I know what you're saying - "So he's a shape-shifting night-loving immortal Satanist! That doesn't make him a vampire. That could describe a movie star turned politician!"Evidence #6:
Santa is hot with the babes! Don't believe me! Go listen to "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus", or better yet "Santa Baby".
How could such a scraggly looking fellow be considered so hot? Vampire sex appeal wouldn't hurt, huh? I mean, come on, a guy with that much hair on his face has to have quite a bit coming out his ears and nose as well as his back and butt. Trust me, I can't grow a beard as thick as his and I still have hair growing everywhere!
Before you saying anything else, I have one last question -
Evidence #7:
Just one question - how do you think his reindeer can fly?
So there I leave you, my dear readers. Doubt if you want, but on Christmas Eve when you feel the whiskers on your face and the teeth dipping into your neck, remember what OlderMusicGeek told you.
We'd all better be good for goodness sake!
