Santa on Radar
I know, I know, long time no post, but this was just too cool not to: NORAD and Google Team up to track Santa’s sleigh on radar.
I didn’t know the original story - that in 1952 a Sears store inadvertantly gave out the phone number of the NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command) commander-in-chief as their Santa hotline number. (Personally, I also wonder how a Sears store in Colorado Springs even got that number), but it’s really a cool story that’s turned into a Christmas tradition.
In other news, expect a post next week about a change in my current situation. I’m afraid I have to be extremely vague until everything’s official.
