WITandWISDOM(tm) - January 11, 2000 ~~~~~~~ THOUGHTS: It is a man's sympathy with all creatures that truly makes him a man. Until he extends his circle of compassion to all living things, man himself will not find peace. - Albert Schweitzer (E-zine: QUOTE A DAY Mailto:quoteaday- subscribe@listbot.com) ~~~~~~~ SPECIAL THOUGHTS: A man somewhat skeptical sat down to read the Bible one hour each evening. After a while he said to his wife, "If this Book is right, we are wrong." A few evenings later he said, "If this Book is right, we are lost." Later he said, "If this Book is right, we may be saved." And they were. By Jesse C. Stevens, Signs of the Times, July 29, 1941. (Dale Galusha http://www.pacificpress.com/signs ) ~~~~~~~ THIS & THAT: A guy gets up really early in the morning to go ice fishing. He goes out onto the ice with his tent, his pick and his fishing rod, and starts to pick at the ice. Then he hears a big booming voice: "THERE'S NO FISH UNDER THE ICE" The guy looks around and then starts to pick at the ice again. Then he hears the voice again: "THERE'S NO FISH UNDER THE ICE" Now the guy is getting a little edgy. He looks up, "God, is that you?" There is no answer, so he starts picking again. "THERE'S NO FISH UNDER THE ICE!!" Then the guy yells "God! is that you?" "NO, IT'S THE MANAGER OF THE ICE RINK!!" (Gavin Wilson) ~~~~~~~ KEEP SMILING: Reminiscent of days gone by: A pat on the back will help build character if it is given often enough, hard enough, and low enough. - Fulton J. Sheen, from the August 24, 1998 issue of Forbes (Tim Colwell) ~~~~~~~ TRIVIA: Flu season is hitting hard this year. But how can you distinguish it from a bad cold?
