Even though Trump believes there are good people on either side of the pointy hoods, I am glad the Church and BYU will not put up with this hatemonger nonsense.

Re: Too much love?

Members are supposed to stand when Apostles enter the chapel, foyer, relief society room, or even the restroom. They should remain standing until the Apostle is seated. There is even a song to accompany this show of reverence. It is called "Hail to the Apostle". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enuOA...

Pretty sure this Newton fellow wrote, “What goes up must come down, spinning wheel got to go round.”

Re: How to Tarnish Your Brand in 5 Easy Steps

Once Snidely Whiplash realizes that all the townsfolk have seen him tying Nell to the tracks, he reluctantly releases her and says to himself, "Curses, foiled again... well, at least I will have the LGBTQ community to kick around".

Re: The Actual Power of the Imagination For Seeing Reality

Kerry, have you ever thought about adding a short abstract to the heading of your posts and an equally short conclusion of results? Not a criticism, I love your work.

Re: How to Tarnish Your Brand in 5 Easy Steps

Plans at BYU-Idaho are administered by Deseret Mutual Benefit Administrators, established by the LDS Church — cost $536 per semester for an individual or $2,130 for a family. Medicaid, on the other hand, is free or low-cost coverage for low-income people who qualify. So which one takes precedence? T...

Re: What are you drinking right now?

Hey, what's the deal with pirates and rum?
Is rum the reason there are no specific pirate missions?
If so, why do they still find their way into multi-level marketing ventures?

It made me a little sick to think he had set these suggested sacrifices then wasn't living them himself. Maybe it was the Mrs, but still.

Re: Real Housewifes of SLC

Oh my heck! Sisters Betty-Sue and Eldora would be great for this show, they really amplify the gospel! And what about that bishop's wife in the 5th ward? She is good at home canning and playing the piano in Junior Sunday School.
