This morning has Dean already out and raking/blowing up the leaves. So far "Sir Leaf" has gotten up 6 55-gallon bags of leaves and mown the backyard. He will probably get them all cleaned up before mid-afternoon.
I'll be heading out to choir practice before noon for a couple of hours. We are into full swing of getting ready for the Christmas presentation and a Thanksgiving service.
I don't think that we have anything really exciting going on today, but as you know that can change on a dime.
Sean went out this afternoon and found a job raking leaves for one of the neighbors. He was able to earn some spending/saving money on his own. The gentleman that he did the leaves for told him that he would give him a call when he had some other jobs that he needed extra hands to do. He also has a line on a couple of other jobs to do within the next week.

On a business trip, my father approached a security checkpoint at the airport. The National Guard shift was rotating, and a guard, in full uniform, was in line in front of him.
As with everybody else, the soldier was ordered to go through the metal detector. So, as he did so, he handed his M-16 rifle to security personnel along with other items such as handcuffs and a flashlight.
Still, the alarm sounded when he walked through. Further inspection revealed a little Swiss army knife inside one of his pockets.
"Sorry, Sir, but this item is prohibited," security said to the soldier.
Then, taking the knife away, the airport worker handed him back the M-16.
In a department store, Sandra and a patient clerk were having a hard time getting together. Nothing the clerk provided was suitable. Finally, Sandra said in annoyance, "Can't you find a smarter clerk to serve me?"
"No," said the saleswoman. "The smarter clerk saw you coming and left."

Clerk Problem
