Oh look, Chicken Thursday!

Cybersaltine J.J. Westberg is this week's winner of the "Spot Pastor Tim's Grammar Mistake" contest. Last week, I said I was "to" lazy for heating our home with wood, when I really meant I was "too" lazy. I do know the difference and I suspect it was just a typo, but it raises a fun dilemma we can all ponder.

In the English language we use "two, to, and too" at different times. This reality forms the conundrum which is the sentence that can be said, but not written: "There are 3 *twos*" in the English language. (I've used "two" there but that can't be the right use, and neither would the others.)

I think I have actually found a way to express the intent of that sentence. It came to me when I was playing a table game with Grandma Cybersalt yesterday. But I want to give you all a chance come up with a way to write out a sentence that solves (or works around) the problem. If you have an idea, just reply to this mailing and I will get it.

Today's video share is a reminder that sometimes you just need some explosive, brute force to finish a job properly. I can hardly wait for video of the Christmas tree they are going to hang this on!

Sunday greetings everyone - and happy Canadian Thanksgiving, or as we call it up here in Canada, "Thanksgiving."

Grandma Cybersalt have just returned, late at night, after a wonderful visit with two of our children and their families, so that will be the news for today - other than to say once again that we are thankful for each of you who are a part of the Cybersalt Digest!

Today's video share is Thanksgiving related. It shows that thanksgiving isn't just for those with two arms.

And just in case you think, "That can't possibly be a thing!" after watching the video, there is a another second video share today to

Oh look, Chicken Thursday!

It's fireplace season again at Cybersalt World Headquarters. The weather has changed to the point where coming and going from the house let's enough cold air in to trip the thermostat and turn one of them on. When it comes to fires, I prefer a good wood burning fireplace, but ours are both gas and get the job done - including looking just as cozy! Truth be told, I'm probably to lazy for heating our home with wood - perhaps all the more reason to get one, lol!

Today's video share shows the process of hand making tiles out of cement - probably another routine I'm not suited for. I found the process quite fascinating to watch so I hope you do too.

Sunday greetings everyone!

One of the great things about having contact with with people from other cultures is the opportunity to see what is common across humanity.

This video of a father surprising his daughter (or a daughter being surprised by her father) with a gift is a great reminder that people who are different than us aren't different than us in so many ways. Empathy toward others is a key element in being able to love our neighbours as ourselves, as God calls us to do!
