Kiwis Put The Kebash On Santa's Ho –– Father Christmas has been told to stop saying: "ho ho ho" in New Zealand because it frightens children.  Sian Barber, of Westaff Recruitment, which is finding Santas for shopping malls, told The Dominion newspaper that the traditional shout was scary.  "We're trying to divert them off going 'ho ho ho'. . . for some children it can seem a bit ferocious," she said.  Instead, in this new, sensitive age, Santas are being taught that talking to children the right way was important, as was the ability to listen, show patience, warmth and understanding.  "We need someone who has an affinity with children, someone who can really understand the importance of what they represent," Ms Barber said.  "That's important for the children, and for the mall owners because they are big drawcards."


HO HO HO HO by Clifton53

There was a jolly Santa down New Zealand way O
His bosses said "we hope you understand,
Keep this in mind as you as you go through the day O
Santa you must stick with corporate plan"

They told him NO NO NO NO you can't HO HO NO MO
In simple terms YO HO gotta GO
Please Santa please, this HO HO HO you must cease,
HO NO MO, NO MO HO, HO NO MO

A darlin' little girl jumped up in Santa's lap O
It seemed that she was wise beyond her years
"Why NO HO HO HO, just like a thunderclap O"?
"My dear it seems it's too much for your ears"

They told me NO NO NO please don't HO HO NO MO
In other words YO HO you must stow
Jolly St. Nick O you must drop it right quick
SO YO NO MO HO HO HO, HO HO NO MO

Santa was upset but he complied and say O
"The next thing they'll be changing is my suit,
If it weren't for the kids, and for Christmas Day O
I'd show them all the stiff end of my boot"

Imagine NO HO HO HO, you can't HO HO NO MO
Santa he was feeling SO PO
It ain't worth any dough, to mess with Santa's M.O.
NO MO HO, HO NO MO, NO MO HO
NO MO HO, HO NO MO, NO MO HO
