Well, it's January 2000 and the world continues to function in its normally abnormal fashion. Hopefully some of the millennial hooha will now subside and we can get on with life. But, one question remains-- what do you do with all those things you bought, acquired, and stockpiled in order to be ready for the biggest non-event of the year? Well, my Scottish background tells me to 'waste not, want not' so as we kick off the new year with the January 2000 Edition of the Heavenly Top Ten, here are some practical suggestions that might help answer that question.
“Top Ten Things To Do
With Y2K Leftovers”
- Donate some of your canned goods to a local food bank and let the kids make a fort with the rest!
- The pull pins from the army surplus hand grenades make lovely fashion accessories!
- Have approximately 1,843 romantic candle-light/flare suppers with your wife! Note: dressing in camouflage fatigues may add some spice to your marriage!
- Repackage all your dehydrated foodstuffs as "New Improved Sea Monkeys" and sell them online!
- Open the "Friendly Neighbor Compound Bed and Breakfast"!
- Keep the generator 'cause it's cool and M-A-N-L-Y!
- Take all the labels off your canned goods and have a once-a-week "mystery supper"!
- Recycle your barbed wire into handy craft projects for your church's Vacation Bible School this year!
- Start a new buisness with all the livestock you bought by renting them out next Christmas as "the ulimate" in nativity scene ornaments!
- And the number one thing
to do with your Y2K leftovers is: - Keep them as a reminder that you are to: "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding."
The Heavenly Top Ten is intended to be a fun look at
issues of faith and fellowship. It should not be considered a serious treatment
of
any of the topics presented.
