Anytime you're asked if you served a mission, and your answer starts with, "No, but..." it doesn't matter what excuses follow.

      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

As a lazy person, addicted to brevity (except in bed...I had to add that cuz, you know, ... Gladys) it matters not a whit to me HOW or WHY the BofM is not what JoJu and the mormon church claim it to be. I KNOW beyond a shadow of a doubt that, in my mind, it is probably not the product of Nephite technology working hand-in-hand with agents of the lord. If I die and the next thing I see is St

    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.

I went to the dentist yesterday. As a reward to myself for not dropping the "Comfort Teddybear" they gave me to hold, I allowed myself to yield to temptation and went to the Baskins-Robbins next to the dentist's office, and ordered a medium root beer freeze.  Yum!!, right!!! Then the cashier said, "$7.40."  Good thing I wasn't still holding the "Comfort Teddybea

    Did mormons shoot at each other during the Battle of the Bulge?     One of the very lesser-known stories regarding WWII has to do with the internment camps in Louisiana, where captured German soldiers were housed.     Keeping in mind the 'Aryan-ness' of these young German men, along with how depleted the ranks of young, single American males were because of the exigencies of
