Dear Dennis,
Go ahead and get the Hoosiers - the Reindeer Feed technicians down at the
lab have consumed way too much during the off season. Just last week,
during rooftop training exercises to prepare for the big day, both Donner
and Blitzen managed to fall through the roof of the training hut. Due to
this unfortunate mishap, Santa has instituted a strict diet and training
regimen to be followed year-round. This regimen should save on our
Reindeer Feed costs, and lower our health insurance premiums, thus freeing
up funds for Hoosiers.
That said, full-tread Kumhos seem to be most totally excellent for the more
slippery locations, like GGF and Oakland, and for running in the
rain. They also last much longer than the Hoosiers. And, you can drive on
them to the events. Hoosiers appear to be faster on concrete and stickier
surfaces, like 3com. At least, this has been our experience on our
relatively heavy sleigh.
Sincerely,
Hermie the elf
