Greetings Saints in Jesus Name!

I didn't get a chance to look at this from the "Joke of the Day"
server last week.  Since I experienced snow this Easter Sunday
I thought it appropriate to forward it to the list..... 

With the exception of editing the negative 60 temparature, this is
read in it's entirety.

I hope it's worth a couple of "Nyuk, nyuk's" ... enjoy!

Bro. Tyler
