HURRY! Time's almost up!
Oh dear god, HOW THE HELL could I forget this?
Do you know that the friendly folks at Norad in Colorado Springs track the big guy in red every year? THEY DO. Here's the YouTube link, if you don't want to mess with Google Earth. It's updated every thirty minutes.
They use Google Earth and fancy satellite feeds to track him in his travels all over the world tonight. You can watch him in real time. This is seriously THE COOLEST SHIT EVER. It is our one dire-hard family tradition. I totally meant to tell you about it yesterday, but I am an idiot. I hope you catch it tonight so your kids can watch Santa work his magic!
Also, it makes a lovely "Get To Bed So Momma Can Drink Eggnog" tool. 'Oh shit, guys, he's in OHIO! He's COMING!!! SLEEP NOW!!!!'

My sister is in the Air Force in Colorado Springs - they were asked if they wanted to work last night tracking Santa. Pretty funny stuff!
I managed to get a photo of Santa and his sleigh in the Tasmanian Sky..
