More 'Sillier Than Thou' Content

Since we're in a frivolous mood ("frivolous" is NOT one of the 7 Dwarves):

Name Santa's "Eight Tiny Reindeer1." No fair looking it up.

1The expression "Eight Tiny Reindeer" appears in W. Clement Stone's 1823 epic poem, "A Visit from St. Nicholas" (also known as "The Night Before Christmas" and "'Twas the Night Before Christmas.")

"Eight Tiny Reindeer" is nowhere to be found in Robert L. May's 1939 ad campaign for the Montgomery WardTM department store chain: "Rudolph, The Red-Nosed ReindeerTM." Nor is it in the song performed by Gene Autry and thousands more singers, nor in the TV specials, nor in the many parodies.

Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donder, (and) Blitzen
