A constant stream of kiddie programming which is intended to convince the kids that Santa is real. One show after another. And they are well written, damn fine programming.

My 3 year old grand-daughter is entranced, much to the delight of the elder non-believers. It all starts with Santa. The rest of the programming is slid under it.

I'm not allowed to deny his existence. But an occasional comment, such as "how Rudolph's nose is probably radioactive and is going to give him cancer and will kill him" are tolerated, simply because they think she doesn't understand what I say. She does.

It'll all coalesce in a few years. Until then, I do what I can. There WILL be logic in this house, DAMMIT!
