Sunday greetings, everyone!
Friday was the coldest August 23rd ever at Cybersalt World Headquarters. We even turned on both fireplaces to take the chill off! But I'm not complaining, it is good for the wildfire situation and the plants don't seem to mind.
Today's video is a cautionary tale of what happens when you wander away from the flock: you have a woolly experience!

Bachelor Cooking
Two confirmed bachelors sat talking. Their conversation drifted from politics to cooking. "I got a cookbook once," said the first, "but I could never do anything with it."
"Too much fancy cooking in it, eh?" asked the second.
"You said it. Every one of the recipes began the same way - 'Take a clean dish and....'"

Busy Button
I was shopping with my roommate, and I saw a humorous button that said, "It might look like I'm doing nothing, but on a cellular level, I'm quite busy."
I showed it to her, and her response was, "Oh, I should buy that one, I'm always talking on mine."

The Secret of Life
A father used to say to his children when they were young: —When you all reach the age of 12 I will tell you the secret of life.
One day when the oldest turned 12, he anxiously asked his father what was the secret of life. The father replied that he was going to tell him, but that he should not reveal it to his brothers.
The secret of life is this: The cow does not give milk.
"What are you saying?" Asked the boy incredulously.
"As you hear it, son: The cow does not give milk, you have to milk it. You have to get up at 4 in the morning, go to the field, walk through the corral full of manure, tie the tail, hobble the legs of the cow, sit on the stool, place the bucket and do the work yourself. That is the secret of life, the cow does not give milk. You milk her or you don't get milk.
"There is this generation that thinks that cows GIVE milk. That things are automatic and free: their mentality is that if 'I wish, I ask..... I obtain.' They have been accustomed to get whatever they want the easy way...
"But no, life is not a matter of wishing, asking and obtaining. The things that one receives are the effort of what one does. Happiness is the result of effort. Lack of effort creates frustration."
So, share the secret of life, so young people don't grow up with the mentality that the government, their parents, or their cute little faces are going to give them everything they need in life.
Remember: Cows don't give milk; you have to work for it.

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.

Age is Just a Number…Or Is It?
Recently, one of our granddaughters reached the magical age of 16 and was applying for her driver’s license.
When I learned of that, it brought back so many memories of my own. I remember when I turned 16 and was going for my driver’s license. What a day that was.

If all the toilets in your house are occupied and you are waiting for on to be free, switch off the Wi-Fi.
On my recent trip to New York, I was walking near a small courtyard and heard voices murmuring. So I looked in and saw an altar with a large zero in the middle and a banner that said "N I L".

We think Cybersalt's collection of Christmas jokes is the best collection on the net. Right now it features over 70 jokes.
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.
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
