Here's what's new on the Cybersalt Site each day.
Sunday greetings everyone.
Three weeks from today is Boxing Day, which is known in many parts of the world as "the day after Christmas." Wow - time is flying!
In the coming weeks, many of you will attend Christmas concerts with school band performances. I hope they go better than the one in today's video share.
Enjoy the rest of today's mailing!

Oh look, Chicken Thursday!
There were no grammatical errors in last Thursday's post. I actually had Grandma Cybersalt proofread it before sending it. I am not surprised at the successful effect - she is the secret to a lot of things going smoother in my life.
Speaking of grammar, I want to give a shout out to J. Bernhard for the very kind note and suggestion she sent last week: "Everyone makes mistakes from time to time. When there are other real words, the spell-checker doesn't catch them. Personally, I think you should thank all the kind folk who exercised a little self-control and did NOT point out your error. It's not that we don't see them, it's just that we make them, too, and know everyone deserves some grace. Occasionally, anyway."
The above is great advice and I do thank all you kind folk who have not pointed out my errors. And if you have pointed them out, don't feel bad - I enjoy the fun of acknowledging and playing with them.
Today's video share is proof that you don't always have to work harder to achieve the success you are looking for!

Sunday greetings everyone.
Today's mailing is going out a little late thanks to fun family times over the weekend and a bad case of heartburn last evening (due to food - not family, lol.)
But with the morning comes a quieter house, a quieter stomach, and 20 minutes before we have to leave the house for church.
Today's video share is a beautiful story of love and a reminder to all of us to make the effort to include more people in our Christmas events - and life events too of course!

Oh look, Turkey Thursday! Yes, in honor of US Thanksgiving, we're giving the chickens a rest today. However, with this week's picture we are giving the turkeys a bit of a rest too.
That is the Quetzalcoatlus Northropi, the largest known flying animal that ever existed! It was a picture suggested to me by Cybersaltine A. Alexander back in February. I think it's a great picture for Thanksgiving, because we can all agree to be thankful that this is not flying around anymore. The savings on windshield deductibles is one reason and - oh yeah - the fact these things aren't around eating us is pretty good too!
Now, you may be wondering why it took from February until now for me to use this picture. With the end of the year approaching I am working on a zero inbox for my emails. I ended last year all caught up on my 2020 emails. This year my goal is to have managed all emails from 2021 and 2019.
For this week's grammar walk of shame, I have to agree that I did not fare very well in last week's news when I reported Cybersalt World Headquarters had "faired" well in the big storm that hit our province. Thanks to J. Pierce, R. Hoskyn, and H. Bruulsema for catching that.
Today's video share is a double header of two commercials that show the dangers of having a smart house that maybe isn't as smart as we would like it to be:

Sunday greetings everyone.
Thank you to everyone who has asked about the situation here in British Columbia. We are fine at Cybersalt World Headquarters, here on Vancouver Island. The biggest hit to our infrastructure (the main mountain pass out out of town) is repaired to the point where it is back to being open 24 hours a day while more repairs are being done.
The major issue we still face locally is that nobody (neither government nor media) seems to be able to figure out that when you tell people not to panic buy things, a lot of people take that as their cue to panic buy things. So right now, until December 1, we are restricted to 30 litres of fuel (approx. 8 US gallons/6.5 imperial gallons) per stop at a gas station.
The really big, huge mess is on the lower mainland and in the coastal mountains - a 40 minute drive, 90 minute ferry ride, and another 60 minute drive away. For those interested in the latest in details we like to get our news from globalnews.ca/bc/
In other Cybersalt related news, I learned recently that Rev. James Snyder, who writes the "God's Penman" articles, suffered a heart attack earlier this month. Here is the note he shared on Facebook, "Last Thursday, November 12, I had a heart attack. I was taken to the hospital and on Saturday, November 13, I had a Stent put in one of my arteries. That artery was 90% clogged. On Sunday afternoon I was released from the hospital and went home. Now I am recovering from home with the Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage taking care of me. Who knew I even had a heart?" If you want to send James a note, his email address is This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. (you can always find that at the end of each of his articles.)
Today's video share is a commercial that had me thinking both 'that would be fun to do' and "I hope this doesn't give me nightmares," lol.
