With Christmas only two weeks away, Santa is a pretty busy guy these days. He has to double check all presents are made, organize final copies of the naughty and nice lists and do some last-minute reindeer grooming so they're in tip-top shape for Christmas. It's a stressful few weeks, but Santa's been doing it for like, hundreds of years, so he has the whole thing down pat.

Roughly 800 people put on Santa costumes for the Fourth Annual Michendorf Santa Run in Michendorf, Germany. The race is sponsored by Laufclub Michendorf (which translated means Michendorf Running Club, imagine that) and is 10 kilometers long. You can't quite tell from these pictures, but it actually began snowing pretty hard during the race, which probably makes these the most Christmas-y photos ever. Enjoy!

It's that time of year when the kids begin to write Santa Claus with their Christmas wish list. Getting a response can be problematic given the Jolly Old Elf's busy schedule but the U.S. Postal Service is expediting the process with their "Letters From Santa" program. Here is what to do.

Here Come Santa Claus (Sort of)

There are a number of funny Santa videos, but this one is for real. I first saw this video on MSNBC a couple of years ago, and it's hilarious. Apparently, a guy dressed as Santa was supposed to hop down from the garage roof into a pick up truck with his sack full of toys for the kids, but slipped. Let me say up front, the guy didn't get hurt, and he did a later interview about the whole thing on MSNBC. From the interview, the guy admitted that Santa had a few brews under his belt.
