Sunday Greetings everyone - and Happy New Year! I hope it's a great year for you full of many blessings.
Sorry that there was no mailing on the first Chicken Thursday of the year. The day before we had driven to our son's house for a New Year's Day campfire and wiener roast and then drove home at the end of a fun day. The next morning I woke up and realized I had totally forgotten to put it together and schedule it the night before.
I had a pretty good laugh reading the latest article from Rev. James Snyder. I wish I had been there watching him wish he had popcorn while waiting for his wife to notice a lizard in their hotel room. You can read, "Oh, Those Alluring Lizardly Eyes" at:

Seat Sacrifice
On the way back to New York as I was sitting in the Phoenix airport, they announced that the flight to Vegas was full. The airline was looking for volunteers to give up their seats. In exchange, they'd give you a $100 voucher for your next flight and a first class seat in the plane leaving an hour later. About eight people ran up to the counter to take advantage of the offer.
About 15 seconds later all eight of those people sat down grumpily as the lady behind the ticket counter said,
"If there is anyone else OTHER than the flight crew who'd like to volunteer, please step forward..."

Respect
While the soldiers stood at attention during a parade, a private waved to someone in the crowd. "Jones, never do that again!" the drill instructor whispered.
But a few minutes later, the soldier waved a second time. Back in the barracks after the parade, the DI stormed in and barked for Jones to come front and center.
"Private, you knew I was going to see you," he screamed. "You knew it was wrong. Aren't you afraid of me?"
"Yes, sir!" replied Jones. "But you don't know my mother!"
