Nailing Christmas


While strolling along looking at Christmas lights, my date and I stopped before a lawn with a nativity scene, where there was a small crowd, fidgeting. The crowd was abuzz because the cradle for baby Jesus was empty, and whispered speculation was that he had been stolen. Quite involuntarily, and before she realized what she was saying, my date declared, “They should have nailed him down.”
