In a small southern town I saw a wonderful nativity scene, but one feature bothered me. The three wise men were wearing firemen's helmets. Unable to come up with a reason or explanation, I left. At a convenience 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 darn 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, 'The three wise men came from afar!'

- I'm sure you're feeling sorry for him.
- Yeah, I am - she said.
- He'll miss me.
