Oh look, Chicken Thursday - 02-20-2020!
Thanks to Forrest G. for today's chicken picture which came at a very good time!
The last couple of days have been a little glum for me here at Cybersalt World Headquarters. I've been struggling through a cold and yesterday my follow-up colonoscopy (routine after one I had 3 years ago) was booked for two weeks from today. It's all good - after all, life can't always be exciting trips to Europe - but it was a fun moment when I received Forrest's email and learned he and his wife had just arrived for a short-term mission trip in South America, saw this rooster running around a restaurant they were at for lunch, and snapped a picture for Chicken Thursday! Thanks for thinking of me!
Enjoy the rest of today's mailing!

Three Times Seven
Rick, fresh out of accounting school, went to an interview for a good paying job. The company boss asked various questions about him and his education, and at the very end asked him, "What is three times seven?"
"22!" Rick replied.
After he left, he double-checked it on his calculator and realized he wouldn't get the job.
About two weeks later, he got a letter saying he was hired for the job! He was not one to look a gift horse in the mouth, but was still very curious.
The next day he went to his new job and during a break approached his new boss to ask why he got the job, even though he got such a simple question wrong.
The boss shrugged and said, "Well, you were the closest."

Leadership
On my four-year-old daughter's first trip to Disneyland, she couldn't wait to get on Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. As the car zoomed through the crazy rooms, into the path of a speeding train, and through walls that fell away at the last second, she clutched the little steering wheel in front of her.
When the ride was over, she said to me a little shakily, "Next time, you drive. I didn't know where I was going."
