Mame sends her regards with this one: Me, too
In a small town in the deep South, there was a Nativity Scene that showed great skill and talent had gone into creating it. But, one small feature bothered me. The three wise men were wearing fireman's helmets.
Totally unable to come up with a reason or explanation, I left.
At a Quick Stop Store on the edge of town, I asked the lady behind the
counter about the helmets. She exploded into a rage, yelling at me,"You
Yankees never do read The Bible!"
I assured her that I did, but simply couldn't recall anything about
firemen in The Bible.
She jerked her Bible from behind the counter and ruffled through some
pages, and finally jabbed her finger at a passage. Sticking it in my
face, she said, "See, it says right here....."
SCROLL - AH DARE YA T' SCROLL:
"The three wise men came from afar."
Hb, all a'grinnin' , y 'all!!
