Francois Mathieu — Mobile: When you BYOD, you never bring it back Tough to decide where the benefit is greater
Sunday Silliness
The pastor’s car stalled at a stoplight. He tried to get it started, but nothing. The light turned green, and there he sat, frustrated and embarrassed, holding up traffic. The car behind could have gone around, but instead the driver added to his anguish by laying on the horn.
After another desperate attempt to get the car started, he got out and walked back to the honker. The man rolled down his window in surprise.
“Tell you what,” the pastor said. “You go start my car, and I’ll sit back here and honk the horn for you!”
Two ladies were praising the merits of their respective pastors. “Our minister is so wonderful, he can preach a dozen sermons from the same text,” said the first woman.
“Why that’s nothing,” the second responded. “Our minister can take any text in the Bible and preach the same sermon from it!”
A fourth-grade teacher was giving her pupils a lesson in logic.
"Here is the situation," she said. "A man is standing up in a boat in the middle of a river, fishing. He loses his balance, falls in, and begins splashing and yelling for help. His wife hears the commotion, knows he can't swim, and runs down to the bank. Why do you think she ran to the bank?"
A girl raised her hand and asked,
"To draw out all his savings?"
A husband and wife were at a party chatting with some friends when the subject of marriage counselling came up.
"Oh, we'll never need that. My husband and I have a great relationship," the wife explained.
"He was a communications major in college and I majored in theater arts."
"He communicates real well and I just act like I'm listening."
Each evening bird lover Tom stood in his backyard, hooting like an owl - and one night, an owl finally called back to him.
For a year, the man and his feathered friend hooted back and forth. He even kept a log of the "conversation."
Just as he thought he was on the verge of a breakthrough in interspecies communication, his wife had a chat with her next door neighbor.
"My husband spends his nights ... calling out to owls," she said.
"That's odd," the neighbor replied. "So does my husband."

Sunday Silliness
A priest was visiting his local doctor's office when a nun came rushing out, screaming. When he went in to see his doctor, he asked, "As I was coming in I met a nun running away in great distress. Is she alright?"
"Oh, yes," smiled the doctor, "I've just told her that she's pregnant."
"And is she?"
"No," replied the doctor, "but it's cured her hiccups."
A little boy asked his mother why the minister got four weeks of vacation a year, while his dad only had two weeks. His mother answered, "Well, if he's a good preacher, he needs it. If he isn't, the congregation needs it."

"Purrfection cannot be improved"
"If you don't like my attitude, you should see my cat"
"Menopaws, This is the hottest I've been in years."
"Take my advice. I'm not using it."
"I'd like to help you out. Which way did you come in?"

"Dogs have owners. Cats have staff."
"Thousands of years ago, cats were worshiped as gods. They have never forgotten this."
"Oh, yes," smiled the doctor, "I've just told her that she's pregnant."
"And is she?"

6 Social Media Predictions for 2013
I wonder about usability improvements. It seems that most every site wants to 'capture' the content and even more the person. If someone who interests me posts anywhere, I want to see it. I don't want to chase through twitter streams, FB profiles, or G+ to figure it out. If someone reacts to me, I don't want email or to go back to my original post or comment, I just want to know. The company that figures this out, will capture the SoMe marketplace.
