  A Traveler in Time by August Derleth - You can't always escape evils by running away from them... but it may help! 
  "Tell me what time is," said Harrigan one late summer afternoon in a Madison Street bar. "I'd like to know." 
  "A dimension," I answered. "Everybody knows that." 
  "All right, granted. I know space is a dimension and you can move forward or back in space. And, of course, you keep on aging all the time." 
  "Elementary," I said. 
  "But what happens if you can move backward or forward in time? Do you age or get younger, or do you keep the status quo?" 
  "I'm not an authority on time, Tex. Do you know anyone who traveled in time?" 
  Harrigan shrugged aside my question. "That was the thing I couldn't get out of Vanderkamp, either. He presumed to know everything else." 
  "Vanderkamp?" 
  "He was another of those strange people a reporter always runs into. Lived in New York—downtown, near the Bowery. Man of about forty, I'd say, but a little on the old-fashioned side. Dutch background, and hipped on the subject of New Amsterdam, which, in case you don't know, was the original name of New York City." 
  "Don't mind my interrupting," I cut in. "But I'm not quite straight on what Vanderkamp has to do with time as dimension." 
  "Oh, he was touched on the subject. He claimed to travel in it. The fact is, he invented a time-traveling machine."

  Twas the Night Before Christmas has been called "arguably the best-known verses ever written by an American" and is largely responsible for some of the conceptions of Santa Claus from the mid-nineteenth century to today. It has had a massive effect on the history of Christmas gift-giving. Before the poem gained wide popularity, American ideas had varied considerably about Saint Nicholas and other Christmastide visitors. A Visit from St. Nicholas eventually was set to music and has been recorded by many artists.Produced by Macc KayProduction executive Avalon GiulianoICON Intern Eden Garret Giuliano©2021 Eden Garret Giuliano (P) 2021 Eden Garret GiulianoGeoffrey Giuliano is the author of over thirty internationally bestselling biographies, including the London Sunday Times bestseller 'Blackbird: The Life and Times of Paul McCartney' and 'Dark Horse: The Private Life of George Harrison'.
