On an afternoon train, I heard a small boy ask his mother. “What if Santa Claus gets the coronavirus? I won’t be able to get a present, will I?” The passengers around them were all eyes and ears. They waited for his mother’s answer. She told her son, “Don’t worry, dear. Santa Claus has been already vaccinated!” That’s good to know. All the passengers listening to the conversation looked very happy. The origin of Christmas was to hear good news. I hope that next year’s Christmas will be full of good news! (by a Jaremaga reader)

What Japanese snack is long and thin and covered with chocolate? It even has a special day named after it. If you guessed you are correct. It is Glico’s longest-selling product. They started selling it in 1966, and it became one of the most popular snacks in Japan and in other Asian countries. Now people eat Pocky all around the world. It has become so popular that it now holds the Guinness World Record as the best-selling chocolate-coated biscuit brand of 2019. (by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)
