Baby Jesus gets GPS

AUTHORITIES in Florida are so miffed that someone keeps nicking their baby Jesus from their nativity scene that they have equipped the little blighter with GPS.

Last year Baby Jesus walked even though the whole scene had been bolted down. Now while some might be keen to attribute that to a Christmas miracle, others think it is more likely to have been pesky kids.

So this year it has been decided to step up security on the son of God. The statues are going to be behind plexiglas and Jesus and his mum and adopted dad are going to be equipped with GPS devices.

That means that if they do walk again, Inspector Knacker of the Barnyard will be able to swoop on the tea leaves faster than a flight of well greased angels.

It will also mean that the three wise men will be able to rely on something a bit more accurate than a star to guide them.

The extra security comes from Bal Harbour residents who stumped up the gold. Also financing the scheme was Dina Cellini, who oversees the display.
