If liking cheesy vintage holiday puppet specials is wrong, I don’t want to be right!
They were left over from when Superman built his Fortress of Solitude.
Silly person, they hover. 
He shoulda used the same blue material that Doc Savage used to build his.

The antlers act as airfoils, and when they get up to the speed needed to get all around the world in one night, the lift generated is sufficient to overcome gravity.
Santa Clause. Superman. Doc Savage. Ozymandius. Cthulhu. These guys claim they want solitude but they still get together for their weekly poker parties.
Santa doesn’t live at the “real” North Pole; he lives at the mythical North Pole, one of those lands of legend which you can only get to by following a special magic route, like Peter Pan’s Neverland.
It could easily support a few reindeer (a whole dozen (or is there only ten?)) I don’t know, but the average pitched roof could easily support 3-4 spaced out, assuming they didn’t slip off.
But a ten-twelve, a large sleigh full of presents, AND a fat man? That I’ll have to agree with you on. I hope Santa has some 2x4s and plywood in his sack to give to mom and dad.
How much of the world would realistically expect to have a “white Christmas”? My guess would be less than 30%, yet Santa and his reindeer seem to visit only those houses.
I know for a fact that Santa goes to Mexico and it is not very “white Christmas-y”.
There were eight. And like Santa, they were tiny.
It was, IIRC, Coke that made them big.
My favorite part is the end:
Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen, Rudolph, and Olive.
The Straight Road!

Well, there ARE all those Elves living there…
Y’know, that makes a scary amount of sense. If you follow the Straight Road west, you get to Valinor. If you follow it north, you get to Santa’s workshop.
Now I’ve got to find a copy of The Father Christmas Letters again and confirm.
Not physics, but I’ve always wondered: why doesn’t Mattel or whoever sues Santa for infringing their rights, what with all that making cheap knock-off of their toys in some slave labor factory-- is it because those laws don’t apply in the North Pole? Is that why he moved there?
Everything’s made under license, though. Mattel gets paid the licensing fee every year, and they don’t have any overhead because the slave labor elves are making the product for free.
Hey, he’s at the North Pole for a reason…no labor laws!
Here’s a little secret for you: Mattel et al are in on it. Santa’s not using THEIR designs; THEY are using HIS.
Except for the Playstation 3. That’s all Sony.
I have no idea what that last sentence means, but my wife assures me it’s apt.
Well, the ones that flop aren’t usually Santa designs… He’s got a great record. But he charges exorbitant licensing fees (that’s how he keeps his free-toys operation going), so the human toy companies sometimes decide to take the risk on their own designs.
