The old dusty manger made by someone's grandpa years ago, wearing dish towels with crochet hoops on your head, cardboard wings and a halo made of tin foil and a hanger, and a doll playing baby Jesus

I surely do. Looking back on those days when we didn't have much in the way of fancy, store bought things,there was a sense of innocence and humbleness that seems to have been lost.At least, I don't get the same feeling watching today's major production. We had to dress up the small children as sheeple, today's church rents camels “Hell will be filled with people that didn’t cuss, didn’t drink, and may even have been baptized. Why? Because none of those things makes someone a Christian.”

There always seemed to by problems in getting it ready, the props and the practices, but on THE NIGHT, it usually went off without a hitch. I loved the 'play nights'. Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/

You can still see the eyelets on the platform for the wire the makeshift sheet curtains hung from. I've been in a few where they just left the wire up all year.

Yeah, we had a wire with curtains.I guess that was like today's dark lights, smoke, and lasers.But we only did it once a year.

1959, Biloxi Church of God, I once had a solo of the third verse of We Three Kings. I sang loudly, Myrrh Is Mine, and my mind went blank, I finished the entire verse standing there singing Da da da dada, Dum de dum da da da da da! I received Christmas cards for year from my FRIENDS, Merry Christmas da da da. True..... OUCH That one got enough laughs to be a comedy Adam! Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]/
