Oh look, Chicken Thursday!

Today is a fun day at Cybersalt World Headquarters as Grandma Cybersalt and I attend (virtually) JDAYUSA. Last year we attended in person in Austin, Texas, but this year we are home watching what is going on in Nashville, TN. Susan is taking an all day course in building websites with Joomla 5, and I will be taking in the general sessions. Tomorrow I will be moderating another "Smarter Than Tim" session, interviewing two people who know their stuff better than me (There are a lot of people in the world qualified to be in the session, lol.

Today's video share shows a talented musician who improvises a song on the spot. I'm not making it up - but she is!
You can watch the video here.

 Enjoy the rest of today's mailing.

Tech support has been needed since the very beginning. Enjoy these reminders of yesteryear, back when people had their first personal computers.

+++A woman called the Canon help desk with a problem with her printer.
The tech asked her if she was "running it under Windows."
The woman then responded, "No, my desk is next to the door.  But that is a good point.  The man sitting in the cubicle next to me is under a window, and his is working fine."

+++ Tech Support: "How much free space do you have on your hard drive?"
Customer: "Well, my wife likes to get up there on that Internet, and she downloaded ten hours of free space. Is that enough?"

+++ Overheard in a computer shop:
Customer: "I'd like a mouse mat, please."
Salesperson: "Certainly sir, we've got a large variety."
Customer: "But will they be compatible with my computer?"

+++ Customer: "Can you copy the Internet for me on this diskette?"

+++ Customer: "So that'll get me connected to the Internet, right?"
Tech Support: "Yeah."
Customer: "And that's the latest version of the Internet, right?"
Tech Support: "Uhh...uh...uh...yeah."

+++ Customer: "My computer crashed!"
Tech Support: "It crashed?"
Customer: "Yeah, it won't let me play my game."
Tech Support: "Alright, hit Control-Alt-Delete to reboot."
Customer: "No, it didn't crash -- it crashed."
Tech Support: "Huh?"
Customer: "I crashed my game.  That's what I said before.  Now it doesn't work."
Turned out, the user was playing Lunar Lander and crashed his spaceship.
Tech Support: "Click on 'File,' then 'New Game.'"
Customer: [pause] "Wow!  How'd you learn how to do that?"

When people tell me, "You're gonna regret that in the morning," I sleep in until noon because I'm a problem solver.

She had a boyfriend with a wooden leg, but she broke it off.

"I believe in Christ, like I believe in the sun - not because I can see it, but by it I can see everything else."

- C. S. Lewis

A wife one evening drew her husband's attention to the couple next door and said, "Do you see that couple, how devoted they are? He kisses her every time they meet. Why don't you do that?"

"I don't know her well enough."

Susan Page writes . . . . 

- photo by Susan PageThe word “good” is used a lot in our day-to-day conversation. We might say, “have a good day” or “good-night” or “have a good time” or “good-bye.” There are slang expressions like “good grief”, or “good riddance” and goodness knows how many other phrases we could refer to.

From the opening pages of Scripture, we see that when God saw or took pleasure in His creation, He voiced His approval, with the words … “It is good.” The first reference is at the very beginning of Creation, “And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness” (Genesis 1:4). Most of us can relate to the fact that we would prefer to be in the light. Just think back to those times in childhood when we let the fear of the dark overtake our imaginations. Yes, light is a very good thing.

God made the land and the sea and said that it was good. While I have never been able to travel the world, I will always remember my trip through the magnificent Canadian Rockies while riding in the back of a Mustang convertible. I would certainly agree with my Majestic Maker of heaven and earth, … oh, my, it is so good!
