Two days later while entering a K-Mart I noticed one of those coin operated kiddie rides at the door. This one had Santa sitting in a little airplane! I pointed to it and asked Alicia, "Is that the plane Santa was flying when he died in that crash?" Sepiatone Was it specifically an airplane crash or could it have been a generalized flight disaster? 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds like you've answered that one before... Reminds me of when I learned the truth, at the age of 5. I took out the trash after Christmas dinner, and stacked on top of the trash bins (this was 1969 - no wheeled carts back then) sat a box from Montgomery Ward with the price tag attached. It had contained one of the gifts "Santa" had brought. When I went back inside, I asked my parents why Santa had to buy my gift at Montgomery Wards. They tried to answer, but it wasn't convincing. I was sworn to secrecy to never tell my younger brother. Link to post Share on other sites

Santa's bag may have a closer relationship to the beaded handbag carried by Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter Series. She had used: "The Extension Charm (Capacious extremis) was a charm that expanded the internal dimensions of an object without affecting the external dimensions, enhancing its capacity, and rendering its contents lighter. This charm was advanced magic and heavily controlled by the Ministry." on it so that she could carry reference books, clothing and a serious amount of camping equipment including a multi-room tent.
