Christmas Eve Eve
Last night I was going to post a reference to a kids Christmas record from long, long ago. -I do not remember the title of the record. But it was about a news reporter visiting Santa at the North Pole for a few days before Christmas. The reported was named “Reporter Dick”. And on the record, at the end of the day Reporter Dick was exhausted. So he is shown to his room. The room has this famous feather bed in it. And the feather bd is supposed to be notoriously comfortable for sleeping. Santa assures Reporter Dick he will sleep soundly and wake refreshed. Reporter Dick is happy to get to sleep. And he determines to jump in the bed. That is just what he does. Reporter Dick says, “I’ll just jump right innnnn----” and his voice sinks and fades into distance, as Reporter Dick really does sink into the bed.
Santa must pull him back to safety. We hear Santa advise him, “Oh no Reporter Dick! You’ve got to ROOOOooooolllll onto the feather bed.” And Reporter Dick is safe for this part of his adventure at the North Pole.
