Here's a Christmas one that was emailed to me today (kind of long):

Santa's Bad Day/The Birth of a Tradition

One particular Christmas season a long time ago, Santa was getting
ready for his annual trip, but there were problems everywhere. Four of his
elves
got sick, and the trainee elves did not produce the toys as fast as the
regular ones so Santa was beginning to feel the pressure of being behind
schedule.

Then Mrs. Claus told Santa that her mom was coming to visit. This stressed
Santa even more. When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three
of them were
about to give birth and two had jumped the fence and were out, heaven knows
where. More stress.

Then when he began to load the sleigh one of the boards cracked, and
the toy bag fell to the ground scattering toys everywhere.

So, frustrated, Santa went into the house for a cup of apple cider and a
shot of rum. When he went to the cupboard, he discovered that the elves had
hidden the liquor, and there was nothing to drink. In his frustration, he
accidentally dropped the cider pot, and it broke into hundreds of
little pieces all over the kitchen floor. He went to get the broom and found
that mice had eaten
the straw from the end of the broom.

Just then the doorbell rang, and an irritable Santa trudged to the door. He
opened the door, and there was a little angel with a great big Christmas
tree. The angel said, very cheerfully, "Merry
Christmas, Santa. Isn't it a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you.
Where would you like me to stick it?"

Thus began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas tree.
