Patron: Waiter!
Waiter: Hi, my name is Bill, and I'll be your Support Waiter. What seems to be the problem?
Patron: There's a fly in my soup!
Waiter: Try again, maybe the fly won't be there this time.
Patron: No, it's till there.
Waiter: Maybe it's the way you're using the soup; try eating it with a fork instead.
Patron: Even when I use a fork, the fly is till there.
Waiter: Maybe the soup is incompatible with the bowl; what kind of bowl are you using?
Patron: A SOUP bowl!
Waiter: Hmmm, that should work. Maybe it's a configuration problem; how was the bowl set up?
Patron: You brought it to me on a saucer; what has that got to do with the fly in my soup?!
Waiter: Can you remember the last thing you did before you noticed the fly in your soup?

Something to Think About

• Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.
• To handle yourself, use your hand; to handle others, use your heart.
• Anger is only one letter short of danger.
• Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people;
• God gives every bird it's food, but he does not throw it into it's nest.
• He who loses money, loses much
• He who loses a friend, loses more
• He who loses faith, loses all.
• Beautiful young people are acts of nature, but beautiful old people are works of art.
• Learn from the mistakes of others, you can't live long enough to make them all yourself.
