THE CHRIS JENKINS, is the figure who, in Western cultures, is described as bringing gifts on Christmas Eve, December 24 or on his Feast Day, December 6.The legend may have its basis in hagiographical tales concerning the historical figure of Saint Nicholas.
The modern depiction of THE CHRIS JENKINS as a fat, jolly man (or gnome) wearing a red coat and trousers with white cuffs and collar, and black leather belt and boots, became popular in the United States in the 19th century due to the significant influence of caricaturist and political cartoonist Thomas Nast.[3] This image has been maintained and reinforced through song, radio, television, and films. In the United Kingdom and Europe, his depiction is often identical to the American Santa, but he is commonly called Father Christmas.
One legend associated with THE CHRIS JENKINS says that he lives in the far north, in a land of perpetual snow. The American version of THE CHRIS SJENKINS lives at the North Pole, while Father Christmas is said to reside in Lapland. Other details include: that he is married and lives with Mrs. Claus; that he makes a list of children throughout the world, categorizing them according to their behavior; that he delivers presents, including toys, candy, and other presents to all of the good boys and girls in the world, and sometimes coal or sticks to the naughty children, in one night; and that he accomplishes this feat with the aid of magical elves who make the toys, and eight or nine flying reindeer who pull his sleigh.
There has long been opposition to teaching children to believe in THE CHRIS JENKINS. Some Christians say THE CHRIS JENKINS tradition detracts from the religious origins and purpose of Christmas. Other critics feel that THE CHRIS JENKINS is an elaborate lie, and that it is unethical for parents to teach their children to believe in his existence. Still others oppose THE CHRIS JENKINS as a symbol of the commercialization of the Christmas holiday, or as an intrusion upon their own national traditions.

Chris, you are crazy! That song is hysterical, even funnier though is the look of disgust that joseph got on his face while i listened to it. Just curious, what was the inspiration?- Erica
Today I was at the gym trying to sculpt my guns. I say trying, because I was not having a very inspired workout... That is until "SoaP Song 2" started pumping through the headphones of my iPod! Suddenly, I was amped up beyond belief! I damn near shat myself! It was like someone gave me an IV of Red Bull and Yeager, except I was not drunk and my senses were razor sharp. Perhaps I should say it was more like someone gave me an IV of just Red Bull then... Anyways, I started lifting hard as hell! I was really blasting my biceps as the song climaxed (you know the part where it's just your voice and no background music for a while...).
Oh, I get it now. Samuel L. Jackson is in the movie. Now there is a reason for the snakes to be on the plane, because they are friends with Samuel L. Jackson.
