How did a military organization come to be the leading authority on Santa's whereabouts?

It wasn't until the 1500s that the word was used to refer specifically to a hot drink served around Christmas.

"Boodle" is one of those words that definitely sounds made up (well, technically all words are made up, but you know what I mean).

The word "widdershins" is a combination of the old German terms widar (meaning "back" or "against") and sinnen (meaning "to travel").

You may think that the term "gruntle" was a word first and the prefix "dis-" was added to create the opposite meaning.
