Cybersalt News - May 28, 2020

chicken thursday may 28Oh look, Chicken Thursday!

Thanks to serial chicken photographer Kathie M. for today's picture of these birds all cooped up like so many of us! 

I am happy to announce that I have finished the lion's share of designing a new template for the Cybersalt site. It plays a lot nicer with mobile devices, is faster loading, and is much easier to continue making design adjustments and site developments. You can check that out on any of the pages at:
www.cybersalt.org

If you are interested in seeing part one of the work I did on changing the site (and could do on your site if you wish) you can watch this replay of the live stream I did it on.

Having this template work done leaves me one step closer to another site goal on my to do list; updating the formatting of the Cybersalt mailings so they are more compatible with being viewed on mobile devices.

Wash your hands, keep safe and enjoy the rest of today's mailing!

Here is today's PearlyGates item.

Finest Church

church pewA rich man went to his vicar and said, "I want you and your wife to take a three-month trip to the Holy Land at my expense. When you come back, I'll have a surprise for you".

The vicar accepted the offer, and he and his wife went off to the Middle East.

Three months later they returned home and were met by the wealthy parishioner, who told them that while they were gone he had had a new church built. "It's the finest building money can buy, vicar," said the man.  "No expense was spared."

And he was right. It was a magnificent edifice both outside and in. But there was one striking difference. There was only one pew, and it was at the very back.

"A church with only one pew?" asked the vicar.

"You just wait until the grand reopening on Sunday," the rich man said.

When the time came for the Sunday service, the early arrivals entered the church, filed onto the one pew and sat down. When the pew was full, a switch clicked silently, a circuit closed, some gears meshed, a belt moved and automatically, the rear pew began to move forward.

When it reached the front of the church, it came to a stop. At the same time, another empty pew came up from below at the back and more people sat down. And so it continued, pews filling and moving forwards until finally the church was full, from front to back.

"Wonderful!" said the vicar, "Marvellous!"

The service began, and the vicar started to preach his sermon. He launched into his text and when 12 o'clock came he was still going strong with no end in sight.

Suddenly a bell rang, and a trap door in the floor behind the pulpit dropped open.

"Wonderful!" said the congregation, "Marvellous!"

The PearlyGates list features material that Pastor Tim thinks is funny but would probably generate emotionally fueled feedback if sent to his other more general and family safe lists. He knows the jokes are theologically, politically, and/or socially incorrect and he’s OK with that. And yes, he would tell these jokes to his mother, his children and even his church in certain public speaking situations where he is called pastor for reasons other than the jokes he tells.


The PearlyGates Newsletter is a ministry of Pastor Tim and Cybersalt.
