At one time in my life, I thought I had a handle on the meaning of the word "service." 

"It's the act of doing things for other people."

   Then I heard these terms which reference the word SERVICE:

   Internal Revenue Service
   Postal Service
   Telephone Service
   Civil Service
   City &County Public Service
   Customer Service
   Service Stations

   Then I became confused about the word "service."  This is not what I thought "service" meant.

   So today, I overheard two farmers talking, and one of them said he had hired a bull to "service" a few of his cows.  BAM!  It all came into perspective.  Now I understand what all those "service" aencies are doing to us.

   I hope you now are as enlightened as I am
