Dear Santa Claus,
```
For Christmas do you think you can bring me some snow from Ohio, and can you bring me a little elf [friend](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=286918)? I just want a friend for Christmas! Oh yah one more thing can you get me a new pair of roller blades (not Barbie)?
```
Your friend,
Ms. A Shibblet
P.S. What kind of cookies do you like best?

Dear Santa,
If it’s not too much trouble… a passing grade in first-year Linguistics? (Even if I scraped by on the test on Thursday, I’d love you forever. Really.)
And how about some snow, big guy? I’m not talking namby-pamby wishy-washy wimpy wet little flurries. I want a _blizzard_ out there!
Also, love and happiness for everyone on the SDMB. Thanks. 😉
Love,
**Kythereia**
P.S. Would a camera cellphone be okay?

Dear Santa,
Can I have a baby this year? **PLEASE??**
Thank you and much love,
**Kitten**

Dear Santa:
How about an unusually warm winter with 70 degree temperatures? And make my pansies bloom! I planted them so I wouldn’t have to look at dead stuff all winter long. Oh, and a video camera, a car, a husband who will obey my every command, a mansion with no address so the IRS can’t find me, a Leadbelly CD, 100 million dollars, and a copy of “The Right to be Greedy.” (Hey, at least I’m honest.)
But seriously, years ago when I worked at the newspaper clipping bureau I saw some kids’ letters to Santa in the Artesia paper. Most of them were asking Santa to help Mommy and Daddy get back together again or to get Daddy out of jail for Christmas.

Dear Santa,
Yeah, **kitten** has the right idea. Put me down for her having a baby as well. 🙂
**Hal**
p.s. If you find room, I’ll take tickets to _Spamalot_ too. Ooo…and the Giants making the postseason. But mostly the baby. 🙂

Santa –
Let’s cut the crap. Small unmarked bills would be fine, but large unmarked bills would be better.
Your pal,

Dear Santa, some mean people have told me you don’t really exist, i want to prove them wrong, in order to _prove_ you exist, i want a _REAL_ SR-71 Blackbird, the real thing, not a static display at a museum, not a toy, the _REAL_ Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird
if i find the real SR-71 on my front lawn christmas morning, you will have proven your existence, if there is _no_ SR-71 on my lawn, it will become clear to me you don’t really exist
it’s up to you, do you exist or not?

Santa? Yeah…how about that last 20 lbs off by March? That’d be really nice.
That, and that other thing we talked about too…red? Yeah, that one…
What? Yes, I’ll sit on your lap for a picture…but that’s as far it goes you old perve.

Dear Santa,
Bring me a _ **man** _. I’ve been good this year, but I want to be bad next year! 😉
Love,
