The "Maybe" Recruiter

Tonight, we all went shopping for the Thanksgiving banquet our church does every year.  We bus over all the residents of the Salvation Army homeless shelter & serve them a fancy, formal Thanksgiving dinner on china with a full place setting, nice tablecloths & such.  We have a short church service for them & serve them like waiters would do in a nice restaurant.  It's a really blessing for us and for them.  Anyway, when we got done shopping for the groceries, we went to eat dinner at Chili's.  The parking lot was pretty full & we had to park near a military recruiting office & walk across a parking lot to get there.  On the way in, Samuel asked me what the building was that we parked by.  I told him it was a "Navy Recruiter".  He asked what that was & I began to explain.  In the middle of my explanation, Savannah piped up & said "Hang on......it sounds like you're talking about the Army, but what's a MAYBE Recruiter?".  I guess she thought that if you went to that office, you were MAYBE going to join the military.  ha ha!
