It's been discovered that William Tell and his son belonged to a bowling league. But Swiss historians have not been able to determine the name of the league's sponsors.
So we'll never get to know for whom the Tells bowled.
When I was a kid, bedtime was 9pm and I couldn't wait to be a grownup so I could go to bed any time I wanted ... turns out that's 9pm.
For all their lives, my three sons have been told they have to do their chores around the house.
"I am NOT the maid" is a phrase they've heard many times.
When my oldest went off to college, he called me after one week at school. Among the first words he heard at college, he reported, were those of the dormitory maid, announcing to a student who had not picked up after himself in the men's lavatory,
"I am NOT your mother!"
Oh look, Chicken Thursday!
When Grandma CyberSalt turned 35, our 10-year-old daughter cheerfully commented that according to the Bible (Psalm 90:10) she had lived half of her life. We were both amused because we're more interested in our children feeling free to share the Bible than we are in being vain and thinking that we're going to be young forever.
This past Tuesday, our son turned 35, and as we were driving to his house to celebrate with him and his family and other family members, my wife commented that according to the Bible, he now had lived half his life. I agreed and commented that the second half he was entering is the half that goes by much faster!
I was going to climb Mount Everest later this year, but thanks to today's video share I no longer need to see what's up there!

At a country-club party a young man was introduced to an attractive girl. Immediately he began paying her court and flattering her outrageously. The girl liked the young man, but she was taken a bit aback by his fast and ardent pitch. She was amazed when after 30 minutes he seriously proposed marriage.
"Look," she said. "We only met a half hour ago. How can you be so sure? We know nothing about each other."
"You're wrong," the young man declared.
"For the past 5 years I've been working in the bank where your father has his account."
I went for a run but came back after 2 minutes because I forgot something; I forgot I'm out of shape and can't run for more than 2 minutes.
I finally understand why I'm called a grown up. I groan every time I get up.
"Prayer is the only entryway into genuine self-knowledge. It is also the main way we experience deep change - the reordering of our lives. Prayer is how God gives us so many of the unimaginable things He has for us. Indeed, prayer makes it safe for God to give us many of the things we most desire. It is the way we know God, the way we finally treat God as God. Prayer is simply the key to everything we need to do and be in life. We must learn to pray. We have to."
- Timothy Keller
Helen and Amanda were discussing their busy schedules.
Helen said, "Amanda, I must ask you something. Every day I feel incredibly run down and tired. And yet, I see you looking as fresh as a rose. I have to know: what's your secret?"
"My secret? Every morning, without fail, I wake up at six o'clock sharp."
"You wake up at six o'clock?"
"Yes, and then I look at the clock, see what time it is, and go back to sleep for another four hours."

- photo by Susan PageAre you ever amazed by the truth that God knows how many hairs are on your head? Perhaps if you have lost your crowning glory, this truth doesn’t pack a punch, but all kidding aside, we need to reflect deeply on this Scripture:
“Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows” (Matthew 10:29-31).
One might ask, does God know when one little bird falls to the ground? This truth is hard to absorb because it’s just so amazing!

Over the years, some of the most popular pages on the Cybersalt site have featured Funny Cat Pictures. We have to admit that even though cats often look at humans like they owe the feline world something (remember dogs have owners and cats have staff), cats aren't as bad as a lot of the press that they get.
And so, whether you are a cat lover or tolerator, we hope you enjoy these funny cat pictures. And, of course, if you have any funny cat pictures you want to share with the world, feel free to send them to us to post here.
Some say the world can be divided into two types - cat people and dog people. For the cat people of the planet, Cybersalt has the Funny Cat Archive. For the dog people we have this Funny Dog Pictures archive.
It's dedicated to the memory of Maggie - Pastor Tim and family's dog. The SPCA rescued Maggie from Manitoba's Red River flood in 1996 and brought her to British Columbia where she had two short term owners before becoming a part of the Davis household where she preferred adults over kids, picked and ate fruit from trees in the backyard, and very rarely went into water at the beach.
Here's our funny horse pictures collection.
We think Cybersalt's Funny Christmas Pictures Collection is the best on the net.
We hope you'll enjoy each one and share them with your online family and friends.
Merry Christmas!
