LOL. My very first assignment on a Boy Scout camping trip was to try to find a smoke shifter. This device, when HELD by a campfire, would shift the direction of the smoke away from the person holding it. Actually, my instructions were to find a LEFT-HANDED smoke shifter. My Scoutmasters had to struggle to keep a straight face when I asked them for help.

Wonder if this woman had the same assignment when she was small?

If she's trying to find the dead body of Jesus, she's going to be looking an awfully long time.

A left-handed smoke shifter? It's called a battery-operated fan and it works in either hand. ;^)

"LOL. My very first assignment on a Boy Scout camping trip was to try to find a smoke shifter." P>Kind of like the search for the box of grid squares, the can of frequency grease or the search for the basement key for a WWII era building built on exposed pilons. LOL!
