He inherited the family ranch. in 1998 he got tired of that so he sold it and ever since he has "managed the family portfolio." Which means he didn't have to work, Romnney style, yay! Sounds like a charmed life if you ask me? I don't mean to pick at strangers, (I guess I'm just jealous).
Working minimum wage, being yelled at to "stop talking," and "work faster" just gets old after a while.
An overly precious term some grown men use which when spoken is the equivalent of sprinkling magic fairy dust. It is even more effective when spoken in a baby voice or as Elmer Fudd might say it.
To a politically ambitious MORmON member who is ultimately ASSpiring to become a MORmON GA themselves and who is currently drooling over the prospect of becoming ward Bishop as their first big mile post on their way to their desired station of MORmON holiness and approval, it looks like this guy has it made.
To a MORmON ASSpostHOLE, who is ASSpiring to become MORmON Prophet/ Profit, this guy is small change, he is merely a toady who has peaked and he still does NOT amount to much more than any other MORmON toady.
To an ex MORmON, it is just another DUMB ASS self obsessed MORmON who is really too stupid to wake up and have a life in their own right.
He needs some "slender"(izing) mercies. But, with all those free meals a visiting GA demands during a stake conference, I doubt he'll make any changes.
Oh, and the second anointing? Who in the hell would want to wash his feet?
That ranch must have been worth a butt load of money if he retired just so he could manage the money. I wonder if the church bought it, and this is their plan to get their money back. The church would love to take over that portfolio when he's dead and gone. He's not aging well, so who knows when that could be.

YES SIR!!! He sure sounds qualified to instruct people on spiritual, personal, and family matters.
I think they left out the part about his graduate studies in Greek and Hebrew and his Master's thesis on the relationship between Marcion's gospel of the Lord and Luke/Acts.
The tenderloins of The Lord is more like it. This guy just slipped right into leadership after a life steeped in LDS Inc. and doing what he was told to do.
That is God's plan of happiness - test the world with a leadership filled to overflowing with men so invested in LDS Inc. that they could never think not to worship it instead of Jesus Christ.
When I hear of the tender mercies of the Mormon Jesus, I can't help but think of the god-given catastrophic destructions and mass deaths and losses of the American Nephites and Lamanites, just before "de lawd" arrived for his post-resurrection tour.
Of course, he did it all out of love for his wayward children...
I'm 8 years older than this guy, and look every day of it. My doctor says I'm overweight (duh!) and my youngest granddaughter, almost 3 years old, seems to be fascinated with my gray hair.
But, I can't figure out how his body and face have gotten that way. I don't have a double or triple chin. although it's kind of loose.
