They walk among us.....................
I was at the checkout of a K-Mart. The clerk rang up $46.64 charge. I gave her a
fifty dollar bill. She gave me back $46.64. I gave it back to her and told her
that she had made a mistake in MY favor and gave her the money back. She became
indignant and informed me she was educated and knew what she was doing, and
returned the money again. I gave her the money back again...same scenario! I
departed the store with the $46.64.
...............They Walk Among Us and Many Work Retail.
I walked into a Mickey D’s with a buy-one-get-one-free coupon for a sandwich. I
handed it to the girl and she looked over at a little chalkboard that said “buy
one-get one free.” “They’re already buy-one-get-one-free”, she said, “so I guess
they’re both free” She handed me my free sandwiches and I walked out the door.

One day I was walking down the beach with some friends when one of them shouted,
“Look at that dead bird!” Someone looked up at the sky and said, “Where?”
...............They Walk Among Us!
While looking at a house, my brother asked the real estate agent which direction
was north because, he explained, he didn’t want the sun waking him up every
morning. She asked, “Does the sun rise in the north?” When my brother explained
that the sun rises in the east, and has for sometime, she shook her head and
said, “Oh I don’t keep up with that stuff.”
...............They Walk Among Us!!
I used to work in t echnical support for a 24/7 call center. One day I got a call
from an individual who asked what hours the call center was open. I told him,
“The number you dialed is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.” He responded, “Is
that Eastern or Pacific time?” Wanting to end the call quickly, I said, “Uh,
Pacific.”
...............They Walk Among Us!
My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car designed to cut through a seat belt
if she gets trapped. She keeps it in the trunk.
...............They Walk Among Us!
My friends and I were on a beer run and noticed that the cases were discounted
10%. Since it was a big party, we bought 2 cases. The cashier multiplied 2 times
10% and gave us a 20% discount.
..............They Walk Among Us!
I couldn’t find my luggage at the airport baggage area, so I went to the lost
luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed up. She smiled
and told me not to worry because she was a trained professional and I was in
good hands. “Now,” she asked me, has your plane arrived yet?”
...............They Walk Among Us!
While working at a pizza parlor I observed a man ordering a small pizza to go.
He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it cut into 4
pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before responding. “Just cut it
into 4 pieces; I don’t think I’m hungry enough to eat 6 pieces.”
...............Yep, They Walk Among Us!
My Pleasure, I love the Pledge!
Thank you for the thread.
Egad! I think I know some of these people! ROFL!!

READ: Psalm 92
It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High. —Psalm 92:1
Psalm 92 is a “Song for the Sabbath day,” a resting place for those who are troubled.
The song begins with a commendation of praise: “It is good to give thanks to the Lord.” It does us good to turn from our unsettling and anxious thoughts to declare God’s “lovingkindness in the morning, and [His] faithfulness every night” (v.2). God loves us and is always faithful! He makes us glad (v.4).
Praise not only makes us glad, it makes us wise. We begin to understand something of God’s greatness and creative design in all that He does (vv.5-9). We gain a wisdom that is hidden from those who do not know God. The wicked may “flourish” and “spring up like grass” for a moment (v.7), but ultimately they will wither away.
The righteous, however, are joined to the One who dwells in eternity (v.8). They “flourish like a palm tree” and “like a cedar in Lebanon” (v.12), symbols of graceful beauty and unbending strength. For they have been “planted in the house of the Lord” (v.13). Their roots go down into the soil of God’s faithfulness; they draw on His unquenchable love.
Give thanks and praise to the Lord today!

Friday attended the Diana exhibit in University Circle area of Cleveland.
The Diana exhibit was outstanding. It will remain in Cleveland until June22 & then back to England for summer. Rest of year will find it in Australia & then Korea. SO if you have any interest, you need to get to Cleveland in next few weeks AND if you get here I can get you (3 at least) free to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. My membership expires this summer & for $$$ reasons will not renew it, as things now stand. It is /was primarily attended by women.. but some men might like it. IF YOU TRAVEL with your guy & he is NOT into Diana, he MIGHT be into the Crawford museum/Western Reserve Historical Society/Museum & the wonderful auto displays..
Here is Link to traveling Exhibit -
WesternReserve Historical Societ - were the men can find LOTS of historical things to enjoy while gals do Diana (check the links across the top)
I think I will post a sep thread on it.... I was in tears several times.. some things were NOT in exhibit I would have liked but overall it was a media explosion of color & information.
Here is a pix of the seven of us (gals day out) who shared the event & late lunch afterward. No pix were permitted in the actual display. I decided to spend the few extra dollars to get the headphones ( I am the canary... lol)
