For some recruits, there is nothing basic about basic training.

It was clear that one soldier in particular was not getting the hang of it when on guard duty, he cried out, "Halt!  Don't shoot, or I'll move!"

Happy February everyone!

There aren't going to be many new pages on the Cybersalt Site for the next few days while I begin to undertake a revamping of the SEF (search engine friendly) URL system for the site. This may break some of my existing links, but in the end will help the site play nicer with search engines.

Here is today's CleanLaugh - "10 Questions"

Our local paper runs a popular column called "10 Questions" that spotlights people who live in our community.

In addition to the usual inquiries about occupation and age, people are asked questions that give a snapshot of their personalities.

Recently one woman was asked, "What's the strangest thing you ever bought?"

She answered, "Dog toothpaste."

Next question: "What is the most common thing people say to you?"

Her answer: "Where did you get such white teeth?"

Today's Illustration - "Cab Driver Etiquette"

Featured Illustration items are well suited for introducing or illuminating 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.

On a business trip to India, I arrived at the airport in Delhi and took a taxi to my hotel, where I was greeted by my hospitable Indian host.

The cab driver requested the equivalent of eight dollars U.S. for the fare. It seemed reasonable, so I started to hand him the money. But my host grabbed the bills and initiated a verbal assault upon the cabby, calling him a worthless parasite and a disgrace to their country for trying to overcharge visitors. My host threw half the amount at the driver and told him never to return. As the taxi sped off, my host gave me the remaining bills and asked, "How was your trip?"

"Fine ... until you chased the cab away with my luggage in the trunk."

A lady came to a famous poet and handed him a piece of paper, explaining, "The Lord has given me this poem."

The poet scanned the appalling doggerel she had written, then wadded it up and threw it into the trash with the reply, "The Lord has given; the Lord has taken away. Blessed be the name of the Lord."
