But somehow, vinyl is still thriving and I'm still buying it. From my first Boston album in 1977 to the latest artists; if it's an album I love I'll buy it on vinyl and we spin several of them every week.

Metallica Buys Vinyl Pressing Plant...

Well that's pretty sweet!

I surf a very broad spectrum of music and it's a big part of my life and my family's lives, 4 out of our six kids are in bands, writing their own music and one has a masters and is now a theater director at the HS she went to. I played in the jazz band for four years at the local university and my w...

Wow.

So Holy the Ghost can "bear witness" to Bing Chat AI?

Maybe Bing Chat AI has been fasting, praying, and paying 15% tithing so the Ghost constantly dwelleth within it's circuitry?

Maybe Bing Chat AI has several shell companies, hiding the donations it received from lds.corp.

There was a good write up I found back in 2015 by a student at BYU on Heber Js 1893 loan seeking activities, but alas, it's gone now. I remember it showed a lot of desperation of him running around NY, looking for anyone willing to provide a loan to save the UT banks. He was certainly behaving as a ...

To add insult to injury they were inexplicably rude to me when I handed it over at the COB, and I came away feeling like they thought I was holding back, or had somehow cheated them. I had naively been expecting big friendly smiles and pats on the back, and that I would come walk away filled with T...

This tells me that either Oaks believes he can rob God and get away with it, or that he doesn't really believe any of his own BS about an Eternal Tribunal and hides his own deceit behind lofty, godly language. Why not both? The adequacies of the laws of profits, provide a license for transgression ...

Wow, that PDF is like the equivalent of CES letter, pairs up nicely I'd say.

Over at the Mormon D&D apologetic board, they are spinning the story that this is all the SEC's fault and the Church did nothing wrong. I suspect that is the story that will be fed to the faithful, that the satan-fueled SEC falsely accused the innocent Saints. Unmitigated Kool-aid drinkers.... Sham...

My favorite radio program was Prairie Home Companion, it was wholesome like Music and the Spoken Word, but with better music and more inspiring words from Lake Wobegon. Powder Milk Biscuits, mmmmm they're tasty! I started listening to PHC back in 79 when I was still in HS. It was fun to hear him jo...

That is a good analogy! It reminds me of my own personal journey through music. I found my tribalism ruled my listening preferences in my younger years. Like Hagoth, I started with whatever my parents were playing, then got my own little clock radio. When I bought my own record/tape/FM unit and had ...

During the faith crisis it took me a couple months to finally get over the eternal family afterlife and dad in the sky BS, but once I did I'd never felt so liberated and mentally less stressed. Since then I've come back from the athiest edge a bit, having some experiences that give me a sense of a g...

Out of our six kids (3 from my first marriage, 3 from DWs) only one of them married and also married in the temple, as we and they were still TBMs. That couple is out of TSCC, they are pursuing their careers and have no plans for kids, happily married for 13 years now. Currently 4 out of 5 of our ot...

Wow, what a joke. I think they went to slides because some bean counter at HQ showed they could save a million on production costs of a new film. It's the same BS they pulled when they got rid of all the janitorial staff and had the members start scrubbing the toilets in the ward houses. "I will buy...

Wait... that's the Cosmo you were talking about?

I think that's a pretty good persona.

I got the reference to your camera based on all these years you’ve been talking about it and posted links to your IG. Just my attempt at some sarcasm Red. I've been known to drink a beer or two. But then again I've been know to do a lot of things...or maybe I'm just allergic to sweaters. https://yo...

I never thought about it as gaslighting, but the mental gymnastics I did to keep myself believing it all those years, that's pretty much what that is!

They would probably also have their own language. Pay Lay Ale anyone?

I just added 2 items to my bucket list. 1. Hang out with Fluffy at a heavy metal concert. :evil: :twisted: 2. Journey into nature with Rubin! :ugeek: Let me be clear Red; when I said I was shooting the Milky Way, that was with a camera and not a white substance one might place in their nasal cavity...

I desire all to partake.

It is well!

The discovery of the "spiritual experience" outside of TSCC was a big one fore me on my path to post cult recovery. I found it in a big way out in the Uinta mountains alone one night, shooting the Milky Way over Butterfly Lake. I call it the Cosmo. I've since connected with it in many ways and I fee...
