The miraculously named marketing director of Lightning GPS, Jason Lazarus, let us know about a new program the company is rolling out this holiday season to protect outdoor nativity scenes. They’ll be leasing GPS tracking devices to non-profit organizations — think churches — that can be placed inside those plastic baby Jesuses and used to track them down if miscreants make off with them and drop them at high speed out of the back of a pick-up truck, the figures’ sand-heavy bottoms causing them to spring instantly upright and careen down the highway while rotating slowly to expose the beatific but somehow judgmental face of Mary as she chases your truck at high speed for a hundred feet before tipping off wildly into a ditch. Or so I’ve heard.
