Things may get a lot worse.

Only 10 days to go!

Regardless of whether you belong on the Naughty or Nice list:
What (or who) do you want for Christmas?  
Do you think you'll likely get what/who you want?

I'll wait for a few replies before I chime in with my answers.

Santa Kosh

Someday at Christmas men won't be boys
Playin' with bombs like kids play with toys
One warm December, our hearts will see
A world where men are free

Someday at Christmas there'll be no wars
When we have learned what Christmas is for
When we have found what life's really worth
There'll be peace on earth

Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmas time

Someday at Christmas we'll see a land
(Someday at Christmas)
With no hungry children, no empty hand
(Someday at Christmas)
One happy mornin' people will share
A world where people care

Someday at Christmas there'll be no tears
(Someday at Christmas)
Where all men are equal and no man have fears
(Someday at Christmas)
One shinin' moment, one prayer away
From our world today

Someday all our dreams will come to be
Someday in a world where men are free
Maybe not in time for you and me
But someday at Christmas time

Someday at Christmas men would not have failed
Hate will be gone and love will prevail
Someday in a world that we can start
With hope in every heart

Someday at Christmas
But someday at Christmas time
Someday at Christmas time

I love the Positivism. Thank you.

However, as many of us are old enough to point out - a lot of the things MJ sung about in 1978 are still prevalent today.  

The Bad comes with the Good. Always has and seeming always will. Someone posted a while back about a Mac Davis song he was updating from the 80s that seems to ring as true today as it did then. Only the names change it seems.

It certainly would be nice if there were more moments like the Christmas Truce of 1914 where "Peace on Earth, Good Will To Men" meant that even enemy combatants could get along if only for a day or so before gassing and killing each other soon after. See link below.

Thanks again,
Santa Kosh

Please bring me stamina.  Lots and lots of it.  Like I had when I was twenty.  These ladies are running rings around me and frankly it's a bit embarassing.  Some days I even have to act my age.  I can't abide that.

Oh, and much, much more disposable income would be appreciated.  In unmarked bills (tens and twenties would be great).

And while you're stopping by and working your magic feel free to take an extra twenty pounds with you.

Ok thirty.

I've been a very good boy this year so I trust there won't be any problem with my request.

What's that, Santa?  You know what I've been up to...  And fedex is sending me a lump of coal straight away.
Oh, and pharmaceuticals can help with the stamina and weight loss issues... that's not the purview of Santa anymore?  That's Big Pharma now.  
And as far as free tax-exempt money that only is for the one percenters which I clearly am not a member of?...

Thanks Santa, thanks a whole bunch.  What good is magic if it can't make me superman in bed?

:-p

None of us can be Dorian Gray, enjoying all of the sins and pleasures of Life without consequence yet retaining our own prime youth and vigor.  
Not even Santa. *note the gut/pot belly, my white unkept beard, and the fondness for milk and cookies*

My advice to you is what I hear some people sometimes say:
 "Do the best you can, while you can and try to have as much fun as you can."

Furthermore:
1) Coal is out of fashion because of Environmentalism/Climate Change/Carbon Footprint. Santa started with sending out gravel that he finds in other people's driveways. Now, with the Paris accords, I'm curbing my own carbon footprint to the point that I recommend you pick up your own gravel for your own self once you realize FedEx nor myself will be bringing you anything;

2) Acting your age is a matter to discuss with your physician. If I delivered any blue or gold pills, you'd likely hear odd sounds, have blurry vision and end up seeing your doctor after that 4 hour erection anyways. Save yourself the hassle and go see your doctor.

3) Tax exemption? Bah! Death and Taxes being the only certainties of life. One day you'll realize that "saving someone's life" is only "delaying his death". Also, Santa cannot make an immortal any more than Obamacare does.  

Apologies for the reality check, so I'll send you a Ferarri one day (hope you don't mind matchbox cars) one day soon.

Hope you excel at holding your breath,
Santa Kosh

Santa,

Yeah, I've been on the naughty side of your list long enough to know how this game works.
But thanks for giving me the straight skinny.  Uh... no offense.  :-)
It's more than any of those rascals in Washington have ever done for me.

You're a real man's man.
Or elf's elf.
Or whatever fey creature you identify as these days.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Well, at least next year I'll truly be as naughty as I want to be with no pretenses of getting anything from you.
Then you'll be sorry...  or maybe I will.
Well, somebody's going to be sorry - that's for damn sure.

Smell ya later. Ya big, fat, hairy elf.  And I mean that in the most respectful way just on the off chance I do get that matchbox.  Those matchbox ferraris hold their value way better than the real ferraris.
  ;-)

My understanding is the Fey is "fated to die", whereas Fae is short for Faerie.

Santa is Fae, and not fey. Actually, Santa's a god. Odin, to be exact and his Yuletide in which his blue hooded image bringing gifts from his home in the North was a celebration held long before the Christians took everything for Christ's Sake (literally, figuratively, and all of the above).  

and if you've read the Dresden Files, you know that Santa enjoys hunting and killing things on Halloween.
and if you've read American Gods, you know Odin is one wiley sumbitch.

I being Santa Kosh, OTOH, am fey and not fae. I just hope get to visit more 'elves' before it's my time.

Your Matchbox Ferrari is waiting for you to get your butt off the naughty list.

Have I read the Dresden Files?  My good sir, you cut me to the quick.
Next you will quiz me on my knowledge of the Unseelie Accords.  Or Mouse or Mister or Bob (he's a hoot isn't he?).  Pshaw.
Yes, I am a big Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden fan.  
And of course I've read American Gods - I'm a big Neil Gaiman fan.
You forget who you are talking to...

:-)
