    I know we have some Canadian based Saints on here - I hope you're all staying safe in the wake of Hurricane Fiona hitting the Canadian coast. Hopefully you all live well away from the worst hit areas.

    I'm in Nova Scotia, so we got hit here. Not too bad...some downed lines, and my internet was out most of yesterday (power remained on, luckily), but we've had much worse from much smaller storms, so I'd count it as a win.

    Ive thought before that all schools globally should teach sign language, as far as I’m aware it is the same regardless of nationality so it everyone is taught it it could be used for all to communicate

    Sadly it isn’t universal.

    I thought it was a font you chose from a pull down menu.

    A circus owner runs an ad for a lion tamer and two people show up. One is a retired Cowboy in his late sixties and the other is a gorgeous young woman in her mid-twenties.

    The circus owner tells them, "I'm not going to sugar coat it. This is one ferocious lion. He ate my last tamer so you two had better be good or you're history. Here's your equipment -- chair, whip and a gun. Who wants to try out first?"

    The woman says, "I'll go first."

    She walks past the chair, the whip and the gun and steps right into the lion's cage. The lion starts to snarl and pant and begins to charge her. About halfway there, she throws open her coat revealing her beautiful naked body.

    The lion stops dead in his tracks, sheepishly crawls up to her and starts licking her feet and ankles. He continues to lick and kiss her entire body for several minutes and then rests his head at her feet.

    The circus owner's jaw is on the floor. He says, "I've never seen a display like that in my life." He then turns to the retired Cowboy and asks, "Can you top that?"

    The tough old Cowboy replies, "You bet. Just get that lion out of there."

    I went to a psychic.

    I knocked on her front door.

    She yelled: "Who is it?"

    So I left.

    I was talking to this Native American chief and his wife, in Dakota, and I asked him his name.
    "Running Wolf".
    "And your wife's name?"
    "Five Horses"
    "Why Five Horses?" I asked.
    "Nag nag nag nag nag....."
