Subject: [RR] Honey Baked Chicken
On the local news today - in about 15 minutes -
The broadcasts ranged from "possible cure for dyslexia" to "ice balls falling
from space in Spain" and private industry being able to photograph my backyard
from space and sell it to the highest bidder. (Hey maybe someone in India will
want that ole 52 Chevy pickup Duane has out back).
When I was a kid, I had an idea of what kind of careers there would be waiting
for me after I completed high school. Now I haven't a clue what next week might
bring in new jobs. And if it's hard for ME to fathom the near future, it must be
equally baffling and challenging to our children. The best training for the
future is found in our RR motto "READY FOR ANYTHING" and code: Be alert, clean,
honest, courageous, loyal, courteous, obedient and spiritual. No amount of
technology will change these life basic skills.
Just prior to January 1st, there was an ad campaign in the Pacific NW. TV
commercials depicted a waterfall in an Oregon forest, with a deer drinking in a
stream. The words: "Before Y2K" scrolled across the calm scene. The next ad,
showed the exact same scene, with the words: After Y2K"....
That cheered me up tremendously, (I should never have even worried, my cat
certainly didn't). Be comforted in knowing that all things will work together
for good to them that love God.
and PS: Duane no offense taken, and we're having Honey Baked Chicken with mashed
potatoes.
