Oh look, Chicken Thursday!

Grandma Cybersalt and I are enjoying a visit with our friend (my late friend's wife) and two of their children. It is bittersweet that Darrell is not here and I miss him so much, but I remain grateful that he is with Jesus and for the hope of God's ongoing love and care over those left behind.

Enjoy the rest of today's mailing!

This is the call a Tech Rep friend of mine took one day:

Caller: "Hello, is this Tech Support?"

Tech Rep: "Yes, it is.  How may I help you?"

Caller: "The cup holder on my PC is broken and I am within my warranty period.  How do I go about getting that fixed?"

Tech Rep: "I'm sorry, but did you say a cup holder?"

Caller: "Yes, it's attached to the front of my computer."

Tech Rep: "Please excuse me if I seem a bit stumped, it's because I am.  Did you receive this as part of a promotional, at a trade show?  How did you get this cup holder?  Does it have any trademark on it?"

Caller: "It came with my computer, I don't know anything about a promotional.  It just has '4X' on it."

At this point the Tech Rep had to mute the caller, because he couldn't keep the laughter in. Turns out the caller had been using the load drawer of the CD-ROM drive as a cup holder, and snapped it right off the drive.

The word queue is ironic - it's just a 'q' with a bunch of silent letters waiting in a line.

Fran and Al were honeymooning in France, visiting all the historic sites.

Today's highlight was to have been the visit to the famous bell tower at the Cathedral of Saint Lorraine near Nice. They had expected that the playing of the famous bells while they were in the tower would be one of their fondest memories of the trip.

They were the first in line on that cloudy morning to purchase tickets to enter the tower, when there was a sudden flash of lightning that struck the tower, totally destroying it.

The ticket-seller, surveying the results, immediately offered to sell tickets to see the ruins at half the usual price.

The newlyweds immediately accepted the offer thereby becoming the first husband and wife team to receive ... the no bell price.

Faith can move mountains but don't be surprised if God hands you the shovel.

A friend of mine was in the hospital awaiting the arrival of her first child. When I telephoned the hospital to see if the baby had arrived, the nurse said it had.

I asked if it was a boy or girl and was told that it was against hospital policy to give this information over the phone.

"Fine," I said. "I can understand that. But can you tell me what she didn't have?"

"It wasn't a boy," came the reply.

Featured Illustrations are items well suited for illustrating or inspiring a point in a sermon, speech, or devotional. Funny, moving, or perhaps even graphic, the point of them is the point you make with them.

Rev. James Snyder, God's Penman, writes . . . . 

Several years ago, I had a heart attack, which surprised my family and friends, who didn't know I had a heart. I was not sure I had a heart either until that day it attacked me.

What my heart had against me to attack me like that I still have not figured out.
