It's Saturday

We're waiting for my oldest friend in the world that nice boy to arrive. I was busy pressing "publish" on that last post and we had heard the mailman's truck pull up and the doorbell rang so mrguy opened the door thinking it was either our friend or mailie. Instead, it was the Jehovas. "Hey, how are you doing since Covid?" asked a man in a straw hat, wearing a tie. "Oh hi. We're waiting for a friend right now so we need to go," says mrguy.

Which reminded him of a story. Many many years ago when some of his friends were young and sharing a house, the Jehovas came to the door. While one of the roommates was engaging with the folks at the front door, the guy said "We just want people to read the Bible". At that moment, two roommates appeared with pantry items. As the story goes, they held cans in their outstretched hands and said "We just want people to eat corn" and chased the now freaked-out visitors down the walk.

We just want people to eat corn.

Happy Saturday.
