1. Is this a new twist on 'snake handling'?

[Individualist]

2. Dumbasses! I'm glad that poor camel wasn't hurt.

Did you notice the fools kept singing even after the poor thing fell?

[Bluebear]

10. If they didn't finish the carol the baby Jesus would cry. nt

[xchrom]

3. I love camels - I'm glad the camel is ok. Nt

[Dogmudgeon]

4. "Lo, it is easier to pass through a camel ... "

"... than for the Eye of a Needle to enter into the Township of West Palm Beach."

Amen!

--d!

[Taverner]

5. Camels didn't evolve to walk in pagents

They evolved to walk in the desert, where water is as valuable as gold

Naturally, an artificially AC'd megatheater would prove too much for said camel

Those folks are all lucky the camel didn't spit

[kurtzapril4]

6. I say this as a (former) southern Baptist

The camel was just doing god's work.

Glad the camel is okay.

[Ezlivin]

17. As another former Southern Baptist I say that the camel is a

backslider.

He can bring his sorry humps back to church next Sunday and recommit his life to Jesus.

7. Unfortunate camel tow. n/t

8. I live right down the street, they made sure the camel was okay, he

walked out on his own with the handler and the rehearsal continued....This is West Palm Beach, Florida folks...

11. glad camel was ok

[Gin]

13. my sister lives in W. Palm......this story made me laugh....what does

that say about me? maybe I need help as much as that poor camel.

[monmouth]

16. I loved the part about the camel getting up and walking out. Enough!!...n/t

9. Why are they running a zoo or a barn, really live animals in a building.

[Liberal_in_LA]

12. Christmas pageant. Crystal cathedrals pageant was a huge draw in southern ca

tons of animals.

[marmar]

14. Perhaps a large mammal that walks miles and miles over arid terrain.....

..... shouldn't be yanked around in a confined space to entertain churchgoers, n'est-ce pas?

[Liberal_in_LA]

19. +1

[Faygo Kid]

18. Palm Beach - Isn't that where Limbaugh hides out? Thank God he didn't fall on the parishoners.

Of course, to do so, he would have to leave his compound and actually be seen in public. And that, he will never do.

So most are safe, his soon to be ex-fourth-wife will cash in like the others, and Elton John is disgraced.

At least the camel is OK.

[Buns_of_Fire]

22. Yep, Palm Beach -- across the Intercoastal Waterway from WEST Palm Beach...

Either way, you needn't worry about blubberbutt showing up at a Christmas Pageant and squashing 'em squishy -- so far as I know, there's no mention in the Bible of the Three Wise Men riding giant walruses into Jerusalem.

[WingDinger]

20. Dumbasses, eone knows the camel wont fit thru eye of needle.

[WingDinger]

21. I hope they mentholated it after the fall.

[Jackpine Radical]

23. I'd walk a mile…

to have seen that.
