The shipwrecked sailor had spent several years on a deserted island. Then one morning he was thrilled to see a ship offshore and a smaller vessel pulling out toward him.
When the boat grounded on the beach, the officer in charge handed the marooned sailor a bundle of newspapers and told him, "With the captain's compliments. He said to read through these and let us know if you still want to be rescued."
"If life were predictable it would cease to be life, and be without flavor."

Can a Vicar ever win?If he visit’s his flock he’s nosey.
If he doesn’t - he’s lazy or a snob.
If he preaches longer than 10 minutes it’s too long.
If he doesn’t - he can’t be bothered to prepare for services.
If he runs a car he’s worldly.
If he doesn’t he’s always late for appointments.
"When I started counting my blessings, my whole life turned around."
- Willie Nelson
