Sunday greetings, everyone.
My friend, Dr. Mark Wagner, turned 65 yesterday. My friend, Dr. Harold McNabb, turned 77 earlier this year. I've always known that as I aged I would probably be seeing physicians more frequently, but I never expected I would be surrounded by old doctors as well!
Today's video share is something is a sheepish way to express your love for some one.

The Head Hog
The secretary picked up the phone and heard a very "countryfied" voice on the other end saying; "I want to talk to the head hog at the trough!"
Puzzled, the secretary said, "Excuse me sir?"
He repeated; "I want to talk to the head hog at the trough!"
She then realized the man wanted to talk to the pastor. Somewhat indignant she said, "Sir if you want to talk to our pastor, you will have to address him properly. You should call him Pastor, or Reverend, or Brother, but you certainly cannot refer to him as the Head Hog at the Trough!"
The man on the other end said in a country drawl, "Oh I just wanted to donate $10,000 to the church."
The secretary promptly replied, "Can you hold please, I think the big pig just walked through the door!"

Egotistical Encounter
When two egotists meet, it's an I for an I.
Quote #2307
"If you can't see the sun you will be impressed with a street light. If you've never felt thunder and lightning you'll be impressed with fireworks. And if you turn your back on the greatness and majesty of God you'll fall in love with a world of shadows and short-lived pleasures."
- John Piper
One Hundred Dollars from God
A Post Office worker at the main sorting office finds an unstamped, poorly hand-written envelope addressed to God.
He opens it and discovers it is from an elderly lady, distressed because some thief robbed her of 100 dollars. She will be cold and hungry for the rest of the month if she doesn't receive some divine intervention.
The worker organizes a collection among the other postal workers, who dig deep and come up with 96 dollars. They get it to her by special courier the same morning.
A week later, the same postal worker recognizes the same hand-writing on another envelope. He opens it and reads:
"Dear God, Thank you for the 100 dollars. This month would have been so bleak otherwise. P.S. It was four dollars short but that was probably those thieving crooks at the Post Office."

As If I Didn’t Already Know
I've been accused of many things throughout my life, but never having a great memory.
It's not that I don't try to remember things; I can't remember things I'm supposed to remember. It has nothing to do with my age because it started as far back as I can remember.
