It turns out Santa is real, and he lives in North Pole! Not the real place, but an Alaskan suburb that shares the same name. Santa Claus is actually the real name of one of its residents, and he’s running for a seat on the local city council. In North Pole, the streets are always decorated in holiday spirit, the light posts look like candy canes and the streets have names like ‘Snowman Lane’ and ‘St. Nicholas Drive’. Mr Claus himself sports a bushy white beard and red clothes, but unlike his namesake, he seems to be quite a serious guy and not the jolly man of Christmas myth. “Please do not send me requests for presents,” he says on his website. “Please note that I only reply to business enquiries. I do not respond to messages, calls, emails, or letters from children.” Mr. Claus also ran for President of the United States in the 2012 elections, but pulled back early in the race, due to lack of support. If only children were allowed to vote, just think of the very different world we would be living in right now.
