Today, there was a story on the 12 o'clock news about a woman whose ceramic Jesus statue had been stolen from her front lawn. Apparently, they actually did a story about the theft on the news yesterday, and as a result of the story she got her statue back, so they reported on that today. Now, I'm glad she got her statue back, but for heaven's sake - since when is the theft of lawn ornaments (even if they are treasured Jesus statues!) a newsworthy item?

For your enjoyment, here is a link to the story on the station's website. Go read it - it is short, and you will not regret it. (And in case you're interested, the not-as-funny followup.

"I was just devastated. I called my husband, and I said, 'Where could it go?'" Dowling said.

See? I told you. :)
