Cybersalt News
Sunday greetings everyone.
In preparing today's mailing I discovered I really messed up the news last week. The link to Rev. James Snyder's article was not correct. So today the news has twice the Snyder it usually has!
Rev. James Snyder has been thinking about all the things there are to do and the things he is able to do. You can read "The Strange Myth of Multitasking" at:
www.cybersalt.org/gods-penman/the-strange-myth-of-multitasking
He has also been pondering how marriage adds a new meaning to his concept of "Tomorrow." You can read "I’ll Do It First Thing Tomorrow" at:
www.cybersalt.org/gods-penman/i-ll-do-it-first-thing-tomorrow
Finally, the Westside Bible Church website has been updated with the audio recording of my sermon from last Sunday. It's a look at the question of what happens to us when we die and are awaiting the resurrection: soul-sleep or conscious with Jesus. You can listen to "Places Everybody!" at:

Enjoy the rest of today's mailing!

Colorful Grandma
I didn't know if my granddaughter had learned her colors yet, so I decided to test her.
I would point out something and ask what color it was. She would tell me, and always she was correct. But it was fun for me, so I continued.

"Grandma, I think you should try to figure out some of these yourself!"

Don't Need Grace
Little Mikey and his family were having Sunday dinner at his grandmother's house. Everyone was seated around the table as the food was being served. When Little Mikey received his plate, he started eating right away.
"Mikey! Please wait until we say our prayer," said his mother.
"I don't need to," the boy replied.
"Of course, you do," his mother insisted through gritted teeth. "We always say a prayer before eating at our house."
"That's at our house," Mikey explained. "But this is Grandma's house and she knows how to cook."

A mother was telling her little girl what her own childhood was like.
Don't wear headphones while vacuuming; I've just finished the whole house before realizing the vacuum wasn't plugged in.
I gave all my dead batteries away today ... free of charge.
Little Johnny had been bringing his drawings home from kindergarten every day since he started a month ago. Each day his mother admired the pictures and hung them on the refrigerator. One thing started bothering her. Little Johnny only used black and browns for his drawings. Fearing a problem and not wanting it to get worse, she decided to take him to a child psychologist.
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
