"If I lived to be 100, I'll never be able to forget that big snowstorm a couple of years ago. The weather closed in and...well, you might not believe it, but the world almost missed Christmas. Oh, excuse me! Call me Sam. What's the matter? Haven't you ever seen a talking snowman before? Nice around here, isn't it? I call it Christmastown, better known as the North Pole. The Christmas Tree Forest. Yep. Here's where we grew them. Nice place to live around here, you know. Christmas seals. Of course, the number one citizens up here are the Clauses; Santa and the Missus. They live right over there. First castle on the left. Matter of fact, the only castle on the left."
