It's a blessing to have you back on the boards Sedona.

(From my Minister Grandfather)

A new minister was riding circuit on the range.  He had set up a time and place for a service but only one cowboy came.  The minister was unsure of what to do.  The cowboy scratched his chin and said "I don't know about you Reverend, but if I was going out to feed cattle and only one showed up, that wouldn't stop me from feeding the cow that came.".  

The new minister realized just how sensible the cowboy was.  He played music, sang hymns, and gave the longest most empassioned sermon of his life.  The cowboy listened and participated in the service, but seemed reserved toward the end.  

After the service was finished, the minister thanked the cowboy for his wisdom and asked what he thought of the service.  The cowboy said, "Well Reverend, If I was going to feed the cattle and only one showed up, I would surely feed that one cow.  But, I wouldn't give him the whole load of feed".
