Oh look, Chicken Thursday!

It's been another busy week here at Cybersalt World Headquarters — not just keeping up with work, but keeping up with all the appointments that come along with arm recovery. I'm grateful the arm keeps feeling better each day. I've booked some rehab appointments in the coming weeks to help get the full range of motion back, and even though some things still really hurt, that is actually good news. Add in dentist visits and some phone calls from doctors with encouraging test results, and this poor old man feels very cared for. I'm happy and thankful.

Today's video share is about a meteorite that was tracked and found in under fifteen minutes. I must admit, I would have loved to take part in that hunt — the system they have is pretty impressive.

This is the transcript of an actual radio conversation between a U.S. naval ship and Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland in October 1995.

{**Radio conversation released by the Chief of Naval Operations 10/10/95**}

Americans: Please divert your course 15 degrees to the north to avoid a collision.

Canadians: Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees to the south to avoid a collision.

Americans: This is the captain of a U.S. Navy ship.  I say again, divert YOUR course.

Canadians: No. I say again, you divert YOUR course.

Americans: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER U.S.S. LINCOLN, THE SECOND LARGEST SHIP IN THE UNITED STATES ATLANTIC FLEET, THREE DESTROYERS, THREE CRUISERS, AND NUMEROUS SUPPORT VESSELS ACCOMPANY US. I DEMAND THAT YOU CHANGE YOUR COURSE 15 DEGREES NORTH, THAT'S ONE FIVE DEGREES NORTH, OR COUNTER MEASURES WILL BE TAKEN TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THIS SHIP.

Canadians: We are a lighthouse. Your call.

If you do ever have the opportunity to ride a tandem bicycle by yourself, find a crowded bike path and scream at the top of your lungs, "ARE YOU EVEN PEDALING, JANET!?"

Ken and Marjorie finished their breakfast at the retirement home and were relaxing in the library.

"You know," said Marjorie, "today, in most marriage ceremonies, they don't use the word 'obey' anymore."

"Too bad, isn't it?" responded Ken. "It used to lend a little humor to the occasion."

Susan Page writes . . . . 

We face loss of many kinds. We can lament together, and yet we are united in praise as we magnify our Lord, knowing that He is indeed a good and perfect Father.

I penned these words after attending an online service for a man of God who truly magnified the Lord in thought, word, and deed. I grieved with those who mourned the loss of a good and faithful servant, Rev. Randy Jost. These thoughts are dedicated to a life well-lived for the Lord. As his dear friend, Dr. Rick Reed shared, Randy was “steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord,” and his labour has not been in vain.
