I put together oddities for emails at work to get people to donate to our adopt a family.   This one is from a few years back.

Excerpt from a trial that at the North Pole Courthouse.   Attourney's Ebenzer Scrooge and Virginia are prosecuting.


Judge Rudolph: "Virginia, consider yourself in contempt!

Virginia "Kris Kringle Is there really a Santa Clause?"

Judge Rudolph: "You don't have to answer that question!"

Kringle: "I'll answer the question! "

[to Virginia and Ebenezer Scrooge]

Kringle: You want answers?

Virginia: "I think I'm entitled to answers"

Kringle: "You want answers?"

Virginia: "I want the truth! "

Kringle: "You can't handle the truth!"

[pauses]

Kringle: "Virginia, we live in a world that has presents, and those presents have to be made by Elves with tools. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Ebenezer Scrooge? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for lost toy manufacturing jobs, and you curse the Elves. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That the loss of toy manufacturing jobs, while tragic, probably saved the holidays for children everywhere. And my existence, while mythological and incomprehensible to you, saves that very holiday. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me with those elves, you need me with those elves.  We use words like ho ho ho, egg nog, and reindeer. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent making toys. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a person who rises and sleeps under the very blanket I brought them last Christmas, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a tool and start making toys. Either way, I don't care what you think you are entitled to, because Yes Virginia there is a SANTA CLAUSE!"
