A Google explanation from Sept. 2022: "Do Mormons still wear CTR rings? "Today, the 55-cent rings are given to 4-year-olds and the CTR courses, taught each Sunday, run through age 7.”  Now CTR rings are introduced in the Primary 2 and 3 class, according to the church's website.  They still feature the green shield and retail at $1.25.

If you can find some, take a couple of six-packs of Deseret IPA; I think this was brewed purposely to go with funeral potatoes.

We are seeing the hand of ghawd in action! It is inspiring in its majesty! It's like a rock, untouched by human hands or feet, taking me home, country road, long, long ago, on Judeah's Plain, etc.

      I've heard enough stories so that, although I never experienced it, I can still feel the horror of kids having to see their parents parading the house wearing only their garments...just like missionaries at the start and end of each day.       ...And my memories regarding the latter involve old, saggy, yellowing, one-piece garments...that I was wearing!

    It'll be fun when college athletes figure out how to unionize, or whatever it takes, to get paid a decent share of the revenues they generate.     A step towards that end occurred when student-athletes were allowed to broker deals with businesses to endorse products.  But only wildly popular student-athletes are able to cash in.  It won't be fair until football linemen start pu

    What little I know, based on me being me and what happened when I went out, it was entirely up to the bishop.       I think I'd kind of half-way assumed that David O. McKay would walk into his office some random morning and tell his secretary that he'd just received a revelation that the Brown kid in Las Vegas 2nd Ward should be called to the Mexican mission, ASAP, and I would th
