| This may be politically incorrect but it in no, way, shape, or form
reflects my feelings about any religious group or another. If you are
offended easily I would suggest you stop right here. If it hurts your
feelings I really, in advance and from the bottom of my heart do
apologize for not posting this sooner instead of sitting on it for a few
days.

As a teacher, Ms. Jones, was very curious about how each of her students
celebrated Christmas. She called on young Patrick Murphy. Tell me
Patrick what do you do at Christmas time? she asked.
Patrick addressed the class, Well Ms. Jones, me and my twelve brothers
and sisters go to the midnight Mass and we sing hymns, then we come home
very late and we put mince pies by the back door and hang up our
stockings. Then all excited we go to bed and wait for Father Christmas
to come with all our toys.
Very nice Patrick, she said. Now Jimmy Brown what do you do at
Christmas?
Well, Ms. Jones, me and my sister also go to Church with Mom and Dad and
we sing carols and we get home really late. We put cookies and milk by
the chimney and we hang up our stockings. We hardly sleep, waiting for
Santa Claus to bring our presents.
Realizing there was a Jewish boy in the class and not wanting to leave
him out of the discussion, she asked, Now, Isaac Cohen, what do you do
at Christmas?
Isaac said, Well, it's the same thing every year. Dad comes home from
the office.
We all pile into the Lexus and drive to his toy factory. When we get
inside, we look at all the empty shelves and begin to sing "What a
friend we have in Jesus." Then we all go to the Bahamas for the
holidays.
