From now on, Santa\u2019s official color will be green. And if your house doesn\u2019t have energy-efficient bulbs,I\u2019m not stopping there. Furthermore,because I\u2019m fighting obesity,anybody offering me cookies and milk will be passed by &#8211;as will any home playing the song&#8221;White Christmas,&#8221; which is not racially inclusive.<\/p>\n<p>Next. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer has been dropped from the lineup. He will replaced by Al the Green-Nosed Reindeer. Please adjust your songs accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>Also, California is banning flat screen TVsbecause they use too much energy. So this year, no flat screen TVsfor anybody&#8211; just to be fair. And kids, all toys containing plastic will be bannedbecause some people believe the additive BPA poses a risk. There isn\u2019t anyproof, but as Santa Clause, I haveto keep the lawsuits away. So if your favorite toy isn\u2019t made of cloth or wood,forget it.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, children. I don\u2019t know how to break this to you,but former Vice President Algore has announced that the ice caps at my home at the North Pole will soon be gone. So after this Christmas, Ihave to close up shop at the North Poleand look for a new home for me, Mrs. Santa, the elves, and the polar bears.So, sadly,this will be your last Christmas. Enjoy it.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, yeah: Ho, ho, ho!
