There will be no Nativity Scene in Washington, DC this year. The Supreme Court has ruled that there can not be a Nativity Scene in Washington, DC this Christmas season. This isn't for any religious reason, they simply have not been able to find three wise men and a virgin in the Nation's capitol.

There was no problem, however, finding enough asses to fill the stable. :D

You do realize that that joke is older than you, right Eutrusca? And you're pretty old--I hear you fart dust. Ba dum bum. Thanks, I'll be here all week. :D

Heh. And I was expecting this thread to have already degenerated into a flame war about church and state. Damn you Eutrusca! You've foiled me again!

Why should that have posed a problem? From what I understand, the "wise men" were three old guys who thought a newborn would be most interested in filling out a spice rack, and the "virgin" was a clever bird who figured out a neat way to hide her extramarital sexual activity.

Using those definitions of "wise" and "virginal," DC certainly has no shortage of either ;).

I think he was poking at politicians, not the residents in general, or any ethnic subset thereof. I could be wrong, though.

No no.
Doesn't Washington have...
1)Politicians
2)Crackheads
3)Africa Americans.

Some of those choices intermingle.

Yes i am just poking fun.

It's Gonzo, I can see it. I don't know why you get an X, I get a Reply button and a Reply With Quote button. Maybe your browser doesn't play well with others...

EDIT MYSELF-now you see it, though now that I think of it it's the wrong Muppet...back in a sec...

Well, Mr. Rolleyes-you see how it's quoted earlier and is in fact Gonzo? And then there is that last sentence that you quoted where I mention that I chose the wrong muppet, saying "back in a sec" to imply that I am(did) change the muppet in question?

Did you not catch that with your rolling eyes?

Okay, Mr. Rolleyes, I'll try and slow it down for you one more time in the hopes that I can make it clear.

I posted a picture of Gonzo. Someone could not see Gonzo, so I told him that's what it was. You can see that the original post was Gonzo in the quote. Upon reflection, I thought that Fozzie was the better muppet to put there. So I changed it. But when I responded to the guy who had quoted me with Gonzo in his quote I told him it was Gonzo. Because in his quote, it is. Which can plainly be seen by anyone not busy rolling thier eyes.

I've heard that three wise men and a virgin joke told about, well, nearly every place in existence. (or, at least it seems that way...)
