2/When I look at the skullbase veins, I see an angry Santa yelling at me. His eyebrows are raised, his mouth is open, & he has a mustache w/a big beard hanging down.

Each I look at the skullbase, I look for this Santa—bc each part of him is an important venous structure. Image
3/So let’s start w/Santa’s eyes. The eyes are actually not a venous structure, but an important landmark—foramen ovale, where the V3 trigeminal nerve exit.

I remember ovale is Santa's eyes bc eyes are OVAL, so his eyes are OVALE Image
