Saint Nicholas to become pitchman for Turkish Tourism
In a direct competitive threat to North Pole tourism, Turkish tourism officials have announced plans to re-frame the world's image of Saint Nicholas. Apparently the real Saint Nicholas lived in 4th century Turkey, where he would have had little use for a warm woolen jacket and would probably have had a tough time finding reindeer to pull his sleigh. References to the real Saint Nicholas will be used in an upcoming tourism campaign.
Hmmm...
Saint Nicholas = Turkey
Turkey = Christmas
Christmas = Santa Claus
But Santa Claus does not equal Saint Nicholas.
Now you know.
