Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Feb 28, 2026 (message contributor)
A film crew ... was on location ... deep ... in the desert.
One day ... an elderly Native American ... who had been watching the filming for several weeks ... went boldly up to the director and said, ... "Tomorrow rain."
And sure enough ... The next day ... it rained.
A week later, ... the elderly man went up to the director once again and said, ... "Tomorrow storm."
And The next day ... there was a horrendous hailstorm.
"This Man is incredible," ... said the director.
He told his assistant ... to hire him ... and have him predict the weather ... for the remainder of the shoot.
However, ... after several successful predictions, he did not show up ... for ... two weeks.
Finally, ... the director sent his assistant ... to find him ... and she returned ... with the elderly man.
"I have to shoot a big scene tomorrow," said the director, "...I am depending on you.
What will the weather be like?"
The man shrugged his shoulders. "Don't know," he said. ...... "My radio is broken." (Pause)
O' Beloved ... Appearances ... can be ... deceiving.
