A woman driving a car in Calgary became lost in a snowstorm. She didn't panic however because she remembered what her dad had once told her. "If you ever get stuck in a snowstorm, just wait for a snow plow to come by and follow it." Sure enough, pretty soon a snow plow came by, and she started to follow it. She followed the plow for about forty-five minutes. Finally the driver of the truck got out and asked her what she was doing. And she explained that her dad had told her if she ever got stuck in a snow storm, to follow a plow. The driver nodded and said, "Well, I'm done with the Wal-Mart parking lot, do you want to follow me over to SHOPPERS DRUG MART now? Rusty

@seagrass ... empty plates, almost empty table: that is a salt shaker near the ears of a couple of attendees, isn't it? Could they be the salt of the earth? @katlan ... I having been a country resident without wheels from early June till the end of October, was glad when our church began in-sanctuary meetings three werks ago, I went, and during worship, when my phone rang (it plays "morning glory") it was a neighbour who'd brought food to my house ... so I went out into the hall to phone him back to say I was O K and thank him. Having been to almost no gatherings in months, while I attended a newly revivified, as they hadn't been using Zoom, monthly meeting of local subscribers of "Canadian Moneysaver" magazine ... Paul called to say he was at my door with food ... so I shut off the phone and headed for the hall again - I was in another church, as a matter of fact. @jeb ... that kisser teacher looks somewhat like a toaster to me ... but they're best approached when not hot, aren't they! @eld ... sometimes commas are important: for a few seconds I wondered whether it was the needy kids in need of the flowers! @Rusted ... as one 3 1/2 times the age of your illustrated one ... may I request that we old farts be handled with care, please? ole joyfuelled
