St. James Sends Sarcastic Christmas Card
Little Heaven, DE (FN) - A monumental postal error has given the world a rare glimpse inside one of the most secretive relationships in history.
Bernard Reynolds of Little Heaven, Delaware received a Christmas card apparently intended to be delivered to the actual other-worldly paradise. The card was addressed to Jesus "Christ" Ben-David from his half-brother, Saint James "The Just" Ben-David.
The card reads:
"Dear J.C.,
I hope everything is well with you. Enclosed please find a pair of sandals. You know, you are very hard to buy for, what with the whole King of Heaven gig and all. Are you getting any use out of that fishing rod I sent you last year? Maybe I'll just send gold next year.
Christmas brings back so many happy memories for me. You probably won't remember that in the early ones you were the only one who got presents. Yeah, those were special times. Remember that time you gave me a pink belly for trying to borrow your frankincense? Like it would have killed you to share your frankincense.
I was in a store the other day and saw two women literally punching each other over some Christmas merchandise. On an unrelated topic, how is that 'spreading peace and love to the world' project of yours coming?
Well, gotta run. Best wishes to you and yours for a happy and prosperous 2006,
Your brother,
James
p.s. In case I haven't told you lately, you were adopted."

Baloney. ;)
Oh, and I'm here at lunch, catching up...and Good Lord, I completely forgot and wanted to say Happy Fancy Boxing Day!
Adopted...
That's some funny stuff.

I personally don't think He was adopted either. I've had a number of fascinating conversations with men of the cloth, priests and ministers, who have relayed various secret and shocking historical theories about the subject.
But I would have to start another blog dedicated to religious topics to discuss that.
Thanks for the Boxing Day wishes. Some say Boxing Day is better than Christmas, because it's stll a holiday but it's less stress, unless you end up in an electronics store ;-)
