I think the the part about the 12yo was a Red Herring s well, because what 12yo boy in his right mind given a Playboy would be reading the brain teasers. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Is the thing about the Reindeer a question or just a comment? I don't understand it.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I guess, but I still don't understand the question. Youu are saying which one of these options doesn't belong, but then not giving us the options. I am confused. And why do you have Rudolph listed? Is that the answer?

I don't want you to die from suspece. I guess these are better delived in person.

The answer from the magazine was:

"If you still belive in Santa Clause you are too young to be reading this magazine"

Hope it was worth it.

Nixon the Reindeer.

One of the historically least highly regarded of all of Santa's reindeer. Known by his fellow sleigh pullers as a shifty manipulative S.O.B. who tended towards bouts of paranoia. Managed towards the end of his career to acchieve his lifelong goal of being lead reindeer, but was forced to resign in disgrace before his term ended after a group of his elf operatives bungled a break in of Donders office to, quote, "Find out what that little weasel has on me."

Main positive event of his tenure was leading Santa's team into mainland China for the first time, finally bringing the joy of Christmas to hundreds of millions of good little Chinese boys and girls.
