Just in case some still refuse to believe: SANTA LIVES IN FINLAND

[Stefu]

Or a Google search for the word 'Korvatunturi'

Oh, BTW:

It's not wanha, it's traditional.

The efforts of American advertisers are, of course, to be discounted

Besides, there is a time every year when Santa's at the North Pole. I mean, he's got to give gifts to the polar researchers, doesn't he? However, like all gift-givings, it's a quick visit, and he then returns to the home base at Finnish Lapland. And because every other sentence's ended with my floppy-**** smiley, let's have one more for a good measure:

I can understand why you'd want Santa to be Finnish; I mean your country has nothing else to live for. But you are just defaming the man. He is obviously at the North Pole. He has taste, after all.

[aaglo]

Imran,

At least we have Santa as a reason to live for... what do you have? NOTHING! HAHAHAHA!

[Bereta_Eder]

haaa

[Imran Siddiqui]

I live in the US. We have oil to live for, of course.

[Bereta_Eder]

could someone make me an authentic finnish santa hat like last year please?

[Az]

you're all obviously mistaken. His name is Ded Moroz, he lives in Russia, and he brings presents in the new calendar year, not the FAKE birthday of some dead jewish dude.

primitives.

look the song tells it clearly
agios vailisi erxetai aaaapo apo ti kessaria
zis'arxo zis' arxontisa kyria

agios vasilis comes FROM Kessaria

Now I dont have a clue where it is but it doesnt sound like a finnish name i'm afraid.

[alva]

its all about reindeer's

[homer]
Hmmmm...reindeer....archgggssss

[Kuciwalker]

Santa is a banana.

Santa Claus may be in Finland, but I don't think anyone would consider the fact that he's chained to a radiator there means he "lives" there.

[Lars-E]

Santa lives in Norway.

Finland used to fly in kids from England (Concorde) to their "Disney" Santa Park in Finland. The Finns must have hired an American salesperson...

I have always heard that Santa was from Norway. You can walk from Norway (Svalbard) to the Northpole.
