Over the past two
months I have been writing a Christmas story. It is
about Santa Claus and the remarkable sequence of events
that befell a young girl living on the edge of the rainforest
in Palawan, a tropical island where I live.
Of course, for such
an apparently far fetched story, it was important to
check out the facts.
That was easy to
do here in Palawan, but how could I interview somebody
quite so famous as Santa Claus, who lived far away in
a land where I would freeze to death as soon as I got
off the airplane?
Well, it turned out to be more easy than I thought,
and we met, believe it or not, close to a big firework
display in Southern England on November 5th 2005. How
I got there and how he got there, I am not allowed to
say. In fact, I cannot say, simply because I do not
know for sure. I can only speculate. My passport shows
I was here; my wife tells me I was here; I tell myself
I was here. But I was there, and this is what I can
report from the notes I
took at the interview.
There was much more, but I am sworn to secrecy, and
Santa Claus has such amazing powers, I would not go
against his wishes.
These are the 3 questions, and answers, I am allowed
to reveal.
Q1 There is much speculation amongst historians about
your origins. Can you tell us, to put this straight
once and for all?
(Roars of laughter from Santa) “The last people you
should ask are historians. They can only look backwards.
What a dumb life they lead; they can never find the
truth like that. Life is multi dimensional; time is
multi dimensional. What do historians and scientists
know about all that? The truth is like a sun with all
it’s planets rotating round. If you just look backwards,
you miss the whole spectrum, and you miss the sun itself.
“What are my origins? My good man, you’re just a simple
soul, like everyone else on the planet, so I know you
mean ‘when and where do I come from’. I do have a birthday;
in fact, I have many birthdays, and they are all true.
But for your narrow little world, I was born in 701
AD."
“But,” I said, “all the historians…….” his glare told
me to be quiet about historians. That seemed like a
good idea, given that they got it all totally wrong.
Santa was a tolerant and gentle man despite his massive
powers. “And, young man” ( I had not been called that
for a long time) he said. “You will not believe where
I was born. It was not the North Pole, though I go there
often. It was not Lapland, where I do now live. It was
Central Africa."
I was dumbfounded; he just laughed at me. I moved on
quickly.
Q2 I have to ask, Santa, how do you get around the whole
world like that, every Christmas, delivering gifts to
so many millions of children? In less than 2 days. It’s
just not..”
Before I could finish, he had put his hand firmly on
my arm to stop me.
“Of course it’s possible. You think it’s not possible
because your “scientists” say so, not because of the
truth. Only the truth matters. And it is possible, because
I do it every year. You say “not possible” because of
the way you all look at things; narrow and blinkered.
Even my blinkered reindeer know more than your silly
scientists; so forget it’s not possible. I do it, and
young man”, (I was really beginning to like this guy),
he went on, “I just love every moment of it.”
“But……?” I was about to ask, but he stopped me again
with a firm hand.
“Ok,” he said gently. “Let me just tell you about something.
In the 8th century I was exploring brainwaves; your
scientists don’t have an inkling yet about the brain,
how it works, the brainwaves and what they mean and
how you can use them. I was able to discover great things,
things all the scientists have been too narrow minded
in the past to seek out, understand and utilize.”
I was in his spell, listening intently to every word.
He was about to reveal….
“Have you heard of Quantum Chimney Descent Theory? No,
of course not. By 820 AD I had it all worked out; a
year later I had discovered Time Corridors. You know
time corridors? No, of course not, but I tell you young
man, that was what did it, that was what enabled me
to deliver gifts at Christmas all over the world.
“I then developed the Time Corridor Interweaving Theory.
For the next 30 years I started to put them both into
practice, and then bring them together.
That my dear friend
is how I get around the whole world like that and deliver
gifts: by exploiting the Quantum Chimney Descent Theory
in unison with Time Corridor Interweaving.
“Do you understand now?” he asked.
Well, who was I to argue, I might sound like a historian
or scientist? So, that was it, I had the answers to
the greatest Santa Claus question of all. I did not
have a clue what he was talking about, but I am sure
he anticipated that.
We went on to the final question as the firework display
reached its climax.
Q3 What happens to all the mince pies and glasses of
sherry that millions of children leave out for you?
Santa roared with laughter again, “oh, all the things
people leave out for me; they are so sweet those children.
“But you know, their parents should tell them the truth;
they should not deceive. It is their parents who drink
the sherry and other alcoholic drinks. It’s just their
excuse. I don’t drink the stuff, never did.
“But the mince pies, yes I do love a good mince pie.
The children are so considerate leaving them for me,
and I eat as many as I can in Australia. But over a
million? I have to tell you, those mince pies get spread
around all sorts of places. The creatures of the oceans
and the forests are very much experts on mince pies
now. But the year before last.....”
Santa saw my expression change.
“Aaah, we can’t say what happened that year, can we?
It’s in your story. We mustn't spoil your story."
A moment later I awoke in my bed many thousands of miles
away near the Sulu Sea. My wife was next to me; and
funnily enough, I was next to her. When I went to my
computer room a while later, I found my notebook. And
what you have read above is what was written in it.
I really did like Santa Claus; “young man” indeed.
