The guy from the FAA comes to give Santa's sleigh a flight check... He does the walkaround. Checks the runners, sleighbells, etc. Then it's time for the flight test, so he gets on board. Santa notices he's carrying more than his clipboard and asks, ""What's with the shotgun?"" The guy says, ""Well, I shouldn't tell you, but... you're going to lose an engine on takeoff.""
