> We also have a more traditional creche we set up whenever we decorate for Christmas, and it has an attached Baby Jesus. But I really, really want to start a band now, just so we can put out a Christmas album and name it “Detachable Jesus.”

And, of course, the title song would be:

“I don’t care if it rains or freezes,  
Long as I got my detatchable Jesus  
To put in my Creche on Christmas Eve.”
