My son believes in Santa Claus.

So I said, Well, Mom and Dad, what about Santa Claus?

I mean, Santa Claus knows if you're naughty or nice, right?

I was nine years old when I asked my mom if Santa Claus really existed.

My parents had this whole elaborate story about Santa Claus how they had talked to Santa Claus himself and agreed that instead of Santa delivering our presents over the night of Christmas Eve, like he did for every other family who got to open their surprises first thing Christmas morning, our family would give Santa more time.

So, to find out that there was no Santa Claus at all was actually sort of a relief.

But when I got to the top of the steps, I turned around dramatically and said, Oh, by the way, Bill, there is no Santa Claus.

There's only one obvious conclusion to reach from this mountain of evidence our family was too strange and weird for even Santa Claus to come visit, and my poor parents were trying to protect us from the embarrassment, this humiliation of rejection by Santa, who was jolly but, let's face it, he was also very judgmental.

And he was actually afraid to meet the young children who read his books for fear that they were expecting him this kind of jolly Santa Claus like figure and would be disappointed with his more reserved persona.

STOCKHOLM A couple of years ago, a Canadian minister proudly declared that Santa Claus was a citizen of Canada. After all, his home and toy factory are at the North Pole, which, according to the minister s interpretation, belongs to Canada.

Though Santa Claus has not commented on the matter, it is now clear that he could choose several passports when he travels the world on December 24th. In 2007, a privately funded mini submarine planted a Russian flag directly beneath his alleged home.

But for the time being, neither Santa Claus, nor anyone else, has reason to be worried. The nature of the Lomonosov Ridge will be debated for years to come, while his thoughts and ours are likely to be focused on more immediate issues.

We trained in a tank in Port Hueneme, and then my first open ocean dive was in Santa Barbara Channel.

We bought this tiny little bungalow in Santa Monica and for like 50 grand I built a house around it.
