If you have any "anti-Conference" gems to share, please do.

What's the difference between Dallin Oaks and God????


God doesn't think he's Dallin Oaks.


:o)

Good one, Shumster.

:D

Another one I like that's apropos is "This too shall pass." For some, sooner than others.

Judging by the relative lack of twisted panties on the interwebs, I'd say this was one of the least remarkable GC's in a long time. Apparently, bashing gays is going out of fashion fast now that Packer is worm food.

Many gushings by TBMs warrant the following response,

"I stand all amazed."

Notice no exclamation point? It's best at at extreme monotone.
:D

"I puke all amazed..."

"Gag me with a choir..."

Gen. Lucius B. Conference, of the Southern States and Surrounding Environs, at your service.

"Good morning, Gen. Conference, how goes the battle?"

Tee hee. :)

Good ones, muchas gracias. :)

Here's a handful of quotable quotes and there's lots more where these came from (note they're all purpose:) ;-)

"Absence of proof is not proof of absence." (William Cowper)

My own quote for the anti-Conference un-Conference:

Fool's gold is a fool's reward. (As in, an illusion is still only a mirage.)

"I like your approach. Now let's see your departure."

"silence is golden, but duct tape is silver"
(unknown)

Does this count?

Love it! Sure does!

:)

"silence is golden, but duct tape is silver"

That reminds me of this one:

"Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana."

It was a good move to sing "Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing," and Patrick Kearon gave the most Christ like talk I have heard in a long time. Then Oaks stood up, and I knew he was about to change the tone. I got the feeling he knew it too, and felt slightly uncomfortable about it. Maybe I'm projecting, I don't know.
