As if Broadway's The Book of Mormon hasn't brought enough cultish notoriety to the MO's, a new offering has its debut this month in NYC - The Book of Merman where two Mormon missionaries tract out Ethel Merman....seriously
Holy mormon! You weren't kidding!!!

The Book of Marmot? Two missionaries proselytizing in a mountain town run into a talking marmot. Amazingly, the marmot DOES want to know more, thinking that he may have ancestors who lived among the Nephites. Much hilarity ensues as the missionaries find out that they really don't understand marmot culture and the marmot finds out what it means to become a Mormon marmot.
The Book of Minot. The North Dakotan’s Boner.
The Book of Merkin
Look up merkin, then you'll see that this will write itself.
A comb-out will never be the same! Nor will 'wash & set'.
I swear this by the hair on my chinny chin chin.

It could be Merman from the He-Man series!
