3 Wise Men

---

In a small southern town there was a "Nativity Scene" that showed great
skill and talent had gone into creating it. 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" 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, 'The three
wise men came from afar.'"
