Hey, Donuel:

You sure you haven't been listening to my quartet? We do a song titled "Where Would We Be?"

Reminds me of a story a minister/friend of mine told me once. He was a young Pastor, just starting out in a small church in Minnesota. At his first bible study he asked each person to say which passage in the bible gave them the greatest comfort when they were suffering, and as they went around the room, many people recited the 23rd Psalm... "Ye though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death.." When the turn finally passed to an old farmer, he said that the passage that he always thinks of when he is suffering is, "And it came to pass.." He figured that if it came to pass in bible times, it surely would for him. :-) Never mind that "And it came to pass" was a literary equivalent to "Later, Dude." Or, "back at the bunkhouse," He took it as a promise..
No sense correcting him. Whatever helps you keep on keepin' on.
