Found this buried in my inbox...
On a plane flying from Seattle to San Francisco. Unexpectedly,the
plane stopped in Sacramento along the way. The flight attendant
Explained that there would be a delay, and if the passengers wanted to
get off the aircraft, the plane would re-board in 50 minutes.
Everybody got off the plane except one gentleman who was blind My
buddy had noticed him as he walked by and could tell the man was blind
because his guide dog lay quietly underneath the seats in front of him
throughout the entire flight. He could also tell he had flown this
very flight before because the pilot approached him, and calling him
by name said, "Keith, we're in Sacramento for almost an hour. Would
you like to get off and stretch your legs? The blind man replied, "No
thanks, but maybe my dog would like to stretch his legs."
Picture this: All the people in the gate area came to a complete stand
still when they looked up and saw the pilot walk off the plane with a
guide dog! The pilot was even wearing sunglasses. People scattered.
They not only tried to change planes, but they were trying to change
airlines!
ROFLOL .... great one!
Good evening, Dave. Thanks!
That'd be funny, except that your timing's a bit off. Didn't you hear about the United flight that took off out of Sydney, bound for LAX, and was turned around 90 minutes into the journey because of an apparent terrorist threat? (Nothing to do with dogs, I admit, although you can bet the farm that Sydney had the bomb-sniffer dogs out...)
There's a couple of incoherent threads on FR about it... somewhere. I can't be bothered finding the threads again, even if they were terribly informative (which they weren't).
Not feeling the best here today, just thought I'd pop in and say

Read: 2 Corinthians 6:1-7:1
Let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit. 2 Corinthians 7:1
Bible In One Year: Psalms 46-48; Acts 28
Two cockroaches decided to visit their favorite restaurant. While the larger of the two was enjoying his meal, the smaller one said,You wouldnt believe the house I just left. It was spotless. The lady had to be a cleanaholic. Everything was immaculatethe sink, the counter, the floors. You couldnt find a crumb anywhere.The other cockroach stopped his munching, looked with some annoyance at his companion, and said,Do you have to talk like that while Im eating?"
This story about roaches can apply to human nature as well. The second letter to the Corinthians shows that Pauls readers had much to learn about clean living. They needed to develop a stronger hunger and thirst for righteousness. So the apostle pleaded with them to turn away from all filthiness (7:1). He reminded them that God wants His people to separate themselves from spiritual garbage.
If cleannessof heart sounds unappealing, perhaps weve been satisfied with the crumbs of our earthly desires. We need to learn to savor the flavor of godliness.
Father, forgive us for feeding the cravings of our sinful flesh. Help us to cultivate instead the tastes that Your Holy Spirit wants to produce in us. Mart De Haan
What is a car?
I got behind and skipped St. Pantaleone's Day yesterday though it is a day of reverence and respect for people you know and love, but today is Hamburger Day, Cheese Lovers Day, and Accountant's Day. Enjoy
Thank y'all for the precious poem and graphic!
It's sorta like you took the front end of two pickup trucks, and welded them together, only you can't drive backwards from the rear seat.
Why anyone wants to ruin two perfectly good trucks is beyond me, but at least you can carry more than three people in comfortable seats.
Stick around.
More coming.
LOL! Nice poem, Bob!
(nice graphic too, Mama Bear!)
