Sunday greetings everyone!

Growing up, most of us were probably told not to judge a book by its cover. Apparently that wisdom also applies to continents!

Now, I'm not talking about Australia, which from what I can see in videos is actually the world's largest escape room full of unlimited of creatures just waiting to kill you.

I am referring to Antarctica. On the surface it looks like it's a barren, frozen wasteland. However, this week's video share shows that, like senior citizens, there's a lot more going on under that white cap than it seems!

Oh look, Chicken Thursday.

Just over 3 weeks ago, when we were all really distracted by another news story on January 6th, an event took place that demands Chicken Thursday attention. So today is the day.

Two chickens were reported to be harassing customers outside of a New Jersey McDonalds. They were even pecking at car tires in the parking lot!

While this was annoying for many, and probably scary for a few, can you really blame these birds for trying to rescue their kin or at least get some of their "nuggets" back? I mean, wouldn't you want someone to show up and make a fuss outside of the Soylent Green factory if you were inside? Maybe all they were doing was trying to get everyone to realize that, "Chicken Nuggets are chickens!"

It's not all bad news, though. Through my backchannel chicken contacts I have learned that these chickens both received pardons . . . .of sorts, as in, "Pardon me, would you pass the dipping sauce."

Pastor "Attacked" in ChurchSunday greetings everyone!

You may have noticed that when one of you shares something with me, which I turn around and share here, I usually change your first name or last name to an initial when giving credit. I do this primarily for privacy reasons, and also because I know most people don't want to be publicly associated with me.

But today, I'm going to mention Cybersaltine, Pastor Phil White, fully by name because he deserves our support after sending this video of him being "attacked" in church - and his  name also fully appears in the video, so duh!

Now, for those of you who are squeamish, don't worry, the video is not graphic. And to tell the truth, it seems like Phil enjoyed this attack. He actually seems kind of desperate for any kind of attention or activity in his sanctuary.

The way he handled this situation makes me wish I could visit his church. I like to think that if I did, he would invite me back to his house for lunch afterwards for a time of good food and company - during which I would excuse myself and sneak into his closet and steal some of his killer ties! Seriously, check out some of his other videos because he's got the tie thing down!

Oh look, Chicken Thursday.

Today's date is very lean in it's use of numbers - namely 0, 1, and 2. It is 21/01/2021. In military time, this evening at 21 seconds after 9:21pm it will be 21:21:21 21/01/2021!

Speaking of 21's, thanks to Cybersaltine Greg M. for pointing out that I was still using the year "2020" in the Cybersalt News title. It's not that I was trying to live in the past (even though January 2020 was a great month for me with a trip to Spain, Gibraltar, and Jersey.)

Rather, for the last 51 weeks of the each year, I start a new news item by making a copy of the previous Thursday or Sunday's article. That's 102 repeats, which form quite a habit to suddenly notice with all the busyness and changes that come with the first week of a new year.

And as any of us who have been nuns knows, some habits are very hard to get out of. I know that's a real groaner, so I'm going to 23 skiddoo!
