"You're a mean one... Homer J..."

Hi-larious rip of the Grinch! Loved it!

I didn't take it as a rip-off. It was more a homage to The Grinch, or I suppose in this case a homerage.

It was honoring The Grinch, Rudolph, Mr Magoo and Charlie Brown (did I miss any?). They are all important Christmas specials, been around for decades, and the references are an admittance that they are important.

Who could miss Rudolph? With that bright red nose, he's a perfect target.

Somebody claiming to be Scott Munro wrote in news:[email]:

Rudolph's red nose is not alcohol-related.

Actually Rudolph was not one of the original eight reindeer but was added to the lineup amidst much controversy among Santa-watchers. Since Rudolph is literally the odd one out, which makes for an uneven balance on the sleigh's aerodynamics, it has been suggested that a long-prophesied Tenth Reindeer will someday be added to serve as companion to Rudolph. Others dismiss this as fantasy.

Rudolph serves as the point of the sleigh's deer team, actually creating an aerodynamic pencil-esque design. This lowers the air drag force, which allows Santa to make great time.

The same theory applies to birds flying in a large v shape.

Arlen Spector (R-PA) has developed a single reindeer theory which makes the 10th reindeer superfluous.

Not rip-off... a rip.
