Cybersalt News
I'm back. I had hoped to keep sending out mailings while Mrs. Cybersalt and I were back east in Toronto (visiting our daughter, son-in-law, and grandson) but fun family times trumped fun computer time.
On one of our flights back to Cybersalt World Headquarters yesterday, a fellow passenger fell ill and we actually got to hear a flight attendant say that cliché line from an airplane movie; "If there are any medical personnel on-board please let a member of the crew know." I jumped to my feet and exclaimed, "I'm not a doctor, but I played one on television!"
OK, I didn't actually do that (as much fun as it would have been to play "Is there an air marshal on this flight?") Instead, Mrs. C. an I prayed quietly and after we landed we were thankful to see the person able to walk through the terminal with paramedics.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not against having fun when travelling by air. One of my favorite gags (if I think the person can handle it) is to turn to a stranger assigned a seat next to me and say, "You know how every plane disaster movie has a nun or a pastor on board? Guess which one I am!"
Enjoy the rest of today's mailing!

Moving Label
Having moved 15 times during our 37-year marriage, my husband and I appreciate movers who take the time to label carefully boxes they pack for us.
The accuracy of labels can make a huge difference when we try to find something right away.
My favorite was done by one guy who attached this sticker to a box - obviously not knowing how to spell the best one word description:
"Animals you hit with a stick at a Mexican party."

Earthly Treasures
Showing his friend around his his home, Fred started to point out all of the collectibles he and his wife had acquired over their long years of marriage.
"The day before I die, I'm going to sell every piece we've got just to see how much it's all worth."
"But you couldn't possibly know the day before you were going to die, so how could you sell it."
"Simple: If I sell it, my wife would kill me!"
