... Except this year they are trying out the star wars missile defense system against what they are calling a jolly old foreign threat to national security ...

Re: Norad Santa Tracking

As a kid in Canada on christmas eve i grew up glued to the radio, listening to the reports of NORAD tracking santa. Man they even scrambled CF-18s !
lots of early memories. when he got close to Edmonton Alberta we all ran to bed and pretended to be asleep, listening for sounds on the roof.

While working in yellow knife N.W.T. on CJCD radio. one christmas eve i actually was givin a reel to reel tape and told to play a segment every 20 mins.
it was the NORAD tracking tape!
it brought back all kinds of memories!
worst of all it finally made me realize (at 25 years old) it was all fake!

even at 25 it was a kind of let down.

cheers guys,
Merry Christmas

Re: Norad Santa Tracking

Ahh yes, Just as you can count on Santa, you can count on Bob to bring remind of the NORAD tracking of Santa! And once again, my daughter will be glued to the computer screen! Last year she wasn't sure she believed in Santa till she saw again watched the NORAD tracking. This year, I don't think that will help her believe, but she will still be enjoying it! Thanks AGAIN, Bob!

BTW, I am hoping that Santa sends me some more Vermont Maple Syrup!

Re: Norad Santa Tracking

Here is a link to another site that those of you with wee ones may enjoy,

http://santa.sympatico.ca/home/

You enter your email, childs first name, what he/she would like for christmas, picture (optional) etc.

You will then receive a link for your child to click on which plays a video message from Santa that includes their name and other details that you have entered.

My 4 yo son loves it. He's played the video about 10 times now.
