Second Coming nearly foiled by terrible driver

Northhampton (Mass.) police say a woman "has been cited for running down a man named Lord Jesus Christ as he crossed a street... on Tuesday."

According to the Associated Press: "The 50-year-old man is from Belchertown. Officers checked his ID and discovered that, indeed, his legal name is Lord Jesus Christ. He was taken to the hospital for treatment of minor facial injuries."

The woman is being charged with "failure to yield." Seems to me they might want to add "attempted deicide" to the indictment.

Failure To Yield

I'm pretty sure that's one of the charges that will be leveled during the Final Judgment.

Jesus Christ!

"Jesus of Belchertown"? I'm thinking a moniker like that doesn't help gain followers. Could make for an interesting Christmas carol, though.

O Little Town of Belchertown
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
Victim of a drive-by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
Your everlasting blood
The hopes and fears of all the years
Ended with a thud

Rising Son

Don't forget that you can sing "O Little Town of Bethlehem" to the tune of "House of the Rising Sun".
