Found this lying on a table at work the other day, with no indication of it's source so, with sincere apologies to anyone who may own the copyright.....

According to the Alaska Dept of Fish and Game, while both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November - early December. Female reindeer retain their antlers until after they give birth in the spring.
Therefore, according to every historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, EVERY single one of them, from Rudolf to Blitzen, had to be female.
We should have known......... ONLY women would be able to drag a fat-a..e man in a red velvet suit all round the world in one night and not get lost! :}:}:} Lyn.

Of course that makes sense, isn't Christmas a female thing anyway, I mean the festivities, arranging everything (if your husband takes it upon himself to send out the Christmas cards, I'd like to meet him!), buying the gifts, organizing the food etc?
Hahahahahahahaaaaaa......loved it!:}:}:}
HEEEEE HEEEEE ! Always great to have a laugh!!! Thanks. [ All true of course ] !

All those females obeying the man again....

What I'd like to know is when are all the females of the world going to unite, turn to their menfolk and say "Right, that's it, no more war"?

Hi,
Just had an e-mail with this information from my sister, with a reindeer sparkling like a christmas tree.

Oopps,.......I forgot to mention, there is a red nose on this particular animal but maybe it is an inherent trait with reindeer. Cant blame them in the cold weather, but that looks soooooooooooo like a girl reindeer with a red nose huh??
