| Santa was brought to court on charges of drunken driving. Just before the trial, there was a commotion in the gallery. The judge pounded the gavel on his table and shouted, "Order, order." Santa immediately responded, "Thank you , your honour, I will have a scotch and soda." |
| "I have a bad headache. I’ll visit the doctor,” said Santa. Banta, "Nonsense, yesterday I had a headache, I dashed home, gave a big kiss to my wife and the pain disappeared. Why do not you try it?". Santa said, "Good idea, call up your wife and tell her I’ll be right over." |
