Santa may need some new recruits

This news article caught my attention http://www.thelocal.se/5771/20061212/. It seems the majority of Sweden's reindeer are in danger of starving to death due to the uncharacteristic weather we've been having here. I really feel sorry for them and wish there was something I could do. Poor guys. Maybe Rudolph needs to turn on his nose early and lead the way for his fellow kind to get to safety. I would hate it if Santa's famous travel team had to be replaced.

That is really sad -  and given the disturbing image of Santa and his six white boomers (looking like they have been hanged by their bright red collars) currently on display down the road from my place, I think no Christmas reindeer would be a very bad thing!
