Official NORAD Tracks Santa[^] - Currently over Alice Springs, Australia.
Does this mean there is ... more than one Santa?

No, it implies we can't measure.

He use quantum tech to get to everyone in time. So each time we measure him he will go somewhere else.

Quantum mech doesn't do that.
Or in simpeler terms that even a mathematician can understand, the universe does not require observation.

In order to visit every Christian household on Earth on Christmas eve, drop the presents, eat the cookies, and drink the milk, Santa must travel faster than light. The resolution of those web sites is simply too coarse to track Santa's position.

Obviously Google is in errror. NORAD has been tracking Santa since 1955 when the Colorado Springs Gazette misprinted their call Santa phone number. The number they printed went to the commander for the predecessor to NORAD. Rather than get mad, he had his staff set up a phone bank and then answer the phone.
As an aside, NORAD's Santa Tracking at one time was, and it may still be, an actual air defense exercise for the US and Canadian armed forces. Since they have to be on duty and pilots have to fly to maintain proficiency and certification, NORAD developed an air defense exercise to be run on Christmas Eve. I've had the pleasure of being the system controller who ran and monitored the exercise system while running Exercise Noel Tracker.
And for those who really don't know, Santa is a Time Lord and his sleigh is a TARDIS.

A friend of mine is furious: his car started making a weird noise so he took it to the garage yesterday only to find that somebody* had cable tied a harmonica to the propshaft, and he has no idea who ...
* No, it wasn't me, but I really wish I'd thought of it.

Considering most garages charge well over $100/hr to even look at your car, that's kind of a d*ck move.
I like it!
