Minibike
A young man drove his mini-bike in to a gas station and dismounted.

Fashion Greeting
Frank hadn't been to a class reunion in decades. When he walked into this latest one, he thought he recognized a woman over in the corner, so he approached her and extended his hand in greeting, saying, "You look like Helen Brown."

Vice Principal Review
At a dinner party in the home of friends, our host mentioned his high-school alma mater. One of the guests asked him if he had been a student there at the same time as a particular vice principal.

Both of us in our own little world were reveling over the past Christmas holiday. For us it is such a nice time of the year when families get together and just enjoy the season.
My wife and I have come through a variety of phases when it comes to Christmas.
Phase one; we spent our first Christmas in our own little apartment. Married only six months all we had was each other. I must confess this was the cheapest Christmas we ever had. All I had to do was buy one Christmas present for my new bride.

I read somewhere where the average woman speaks 20,000 words a day, and the average man speaks 7,000 words a day. I’m not sure if that’s true because I never believe everything I read, particularly on my computer, unless I write it.
The promises of God are an anchor and source of rest during times like the ones in which we are living.

A man was walking down the beach at sunset. As he walked along, he saw another man in the distance. He noticed this man kept leaning down, picking up something and throwing it out into the water, again and again. As he approached even closer, he noticed that the man was picking up starfish that had been washed up on the beach. He was throwing them back into the water, one by one.
You may remember that I mentioned a few weeks back that Cybersalt has its first paid employee (grandma Cybersalt doesn't get money ;-)) Gurnoor is a great addition to the team and he is learning in leaps and bounds to the point where I know he is ready to take a step up to a new project.
