Best “substitute Santa” story is “The Hogfather” by Terry Pratchett. It explains the importance of belief in intangible things. My favourite part is when the substitute thumbs his nose at tradition and rescues the Little Match Girl.
Lots of folk in chairs have some leg control, just not enough to walk. I’ve also know some who simply pick up a leg and move it, but never seen them cross them.

nice to hear the real story of Cutter John, for those of us who didn’t grow up with Bloom County.

I thought in Academia Waltz his backstory was that he was shot by friendly fire in ‘Nam. Not injured by a trap.
