The Story of the First Christmas Catch-up

No, not Ketchup. (or catsup, either) Although, that would be an interesting story. The one where the Christmas Ketchup learns the true meaning of xmas from the other holiday condiments.

Anyway. It's been a while since i've posted the story, and I meant to do it the other day, but forgot, so here it is now. Lots of new and exciting things to cover:

In the days when Herod was king of Judea, Mary was visited by an angel.
The angel said, "You shall bear a son and call him Jesus."
In those days, everyone went to the city of his ancestors to be taxed.
Joseph had to go to Bethlehem, the city of David.
Joseph and Mary made the long journey together.
When they reached Bethlehem, the city was filled with robots people.
There was no room for Mary and Joseph at the inn.
Mary and Joseph had to stay in a stable.
That night, Jesus was born.
Mary laid Jesus in a manger to sleep.
Out in the fields, some shepherds were watching their flocks.
A great light flashed, and the shepherds were afraid.
An angel appeared and said, "Good news! I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance by switching to Geico! A savior is born!"
The angel told them to go find Jesus in the stable and worship Him.
Then many other angels appeared, singing, "Glory to God".
The shepherds hurried to find Jesus.

There's another sentence for today, but that flap hasn't been lifted yet. I bet they find him though. Although maybe they have to go to prison to do so. Seems lots of people find Jesus in prison.
