I was hoping for some shared parts and figured there would be some given where reindeer come from and where the Rus came from.

Do the Finns have the gift-giver with the sleigh? Is Father Frost a gift-giver?

Go to the link I posted Max.

"In Russia, under the influence of communism, St. Nicolas evolved into the secular Father Frost. He distributes toys to children on New Year's Eve."

I thought, Rudolf was an invention of Disney!

This is Rudolph the Red, BTW: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudolf_Sl%C3%A1nsk%C3%BD
Guess, he was on vacation in Moscow at that time.

There is no wondering when you face into the wind.

Something more specific to Rudolph the Red is what I had in mind.

Blimey, first time I log on here in months, and a really decent (but corny) joke turns into an analysis of the religious and secular influences resulting in a fat bloke in red.

Only at Banana!

Great joke mate!
