NotLoggedin, this is so true. McLean soon realized that Mormons are the only audience that buys his sappy, shtick. Basically he's saying, this is my personal journey but I'm doing a bunch of interviews to promote my upcoming album and to sell tickets to my next XMAS concert....the lost, lost, lost Christmas Carols. Coming soon to Deseret Book. Gag.

As a teenager in the early 70's I remember having to go with my father, on at least three occasions, to help with the sugar beat harvest on the Mormon owned land. The adults worked the machinery and the youth walked behind and picked up beats that didn't make the truck. I'm really surprised no one was killed or seriously hurt since no one had any farming experience. I remember how much I hat

No spooky dreams for me, but I did have a flashback experience two years ago while attending a nephew's mission homecoming. I had not been in a chapel in over 10 years. As soon as I entered the building, that familiar "chapel stench" hit me like a brick. It took a couple of days for it to get out of my nose.

Wendy's 15 minutes of fame will be over once Russ kicks the bucket. Oaks is next in line and he also has a younger polygamist wife with the same jet black hair. Wendy will spend her days looking at old Mormon News clippings and reminiscing with Sherry Dew.

Thanks for sharing. I laughed and spit coffee on my computer screen. If I recall, this same author did a similar report for 2017.

Ratdog, congratulations on your journey. Two of the nastiest forms of control LD$ Inc. uses is requiring special undies and tithing. Breaking from those two main guilt elephants is a huge part of the process. Best of luck to you! Love your user name. One of my favorite Dead spin-offs.

The Wolfe's Sporting Goods store in Crossroads was the best. They had everything for outdoors prior to the big box stores. As a young teenager, I would wonder around dreaming of new skis and fishing equipment.

Growing up in the 60s and 70s, GA's would tell us we were the chosen generation and that the end was near. Tithing was often referred to as "burn insurance" in sunday school and sacrament talks. Wearing garments will protect you from fires and car accidents.

Sure, they won't heat or cool their buildings for the tithing paying attendees but they have no problem wasting water on church lawns. Just like most Mormons, you must keep up the outside appearance of perfection.

This wouldn't surprise me though I predict it's more like ten years out rather than sooner. The football stadium sits on prime real estate for something that's only used six to seven times a year. They could make lots of money on pricey student housing. The days of BYU sports as a missionary tool for LD$ Inc. peaked in the 80s and has been declining since. No one wants BYU in their ath

Cold and snow in Montana tonight. Most of the little creatures trick or treat on main street with the local businesses so we don't get many rings at the door. Like Nightingale, I'll be enjoying an adult beverage on the couch.

I applaud Abby for being public about her leaving LD$ Inc. She's been very professional about her experience. She also wore porn shoulders while hosting Fox and Friends on the weekends. I'm sure porn shoulders and cleavage is required for all women at Fox.

I ran across Gary's obituary. I grew up just across their ward boundary and they were close to my folks. I've mentioned this before on this board. He tried hard to coerce me into a mission including having Paul Dunn "just happen to drop by the office" while I was there. It was creepy. It was only a few weeks later his war and baseball lies came to light. Gary never held it a
