Tracking Santa On His Rounds

Those of you with children may appreciate this site. For the 50th year, the U.S. military at NORAD will track Santa Claus using radar, satellites, cameras, eye witness reports, and fighter escorts to make sure the tubby elf and 8-9 reindeer don't get into any trouble while in American and Canadian airspace.

Children can call a toll-free number to talk with military personal volunteering their Christmas Eve to track Santa and report his location to kids.

Not only is a valuable service provided for kids, but the international implications of firing on Santa are horrendous. Don't fear for Santa if that happens though, Rudolph is equipped with a jammer in that searchlight nose of his and both Donner and Blitzen are in charge of deploying chaff in case a radar guided missile locks onto the sleigh. Don't forget the biggest defensive weapon Santa does have is his naughty list and lumps of coal.
