While you're at it, T&S....

Wipe away Chris Bigelow, too. The man is insane. Read this paragraph, which chases a paragraph in which he extols himself for having avoided masturbating for a long time:

"I could also have taken a confessional tack and written about how having left behind a near-fiancée with a wobbly testimony and (very) wobbly chastity was a horrible distraction that caused me much suffering and was probably as much as half the reason why I hated my mission, how I was snobby toward other missionaries and light-minded at times and unable to study in the mornings without dozing, how I practically went inactive in the CHURCH for a couple of months on my mission (I think I kept praying but didn’t do any scripture study and often didn’t even make it to church, let alone follow the missionary program), how just six months before my mission started I was still very much in the sex-and-drugs punk/new wave scene and probably repented too fast (I’m sure I would not have qualified for service in today’s higher-bar environment), etc."

Thanks for sharing.

Wiping the Slate Clean

T&S should do something about Joseph D. Walch.

"Perhaps I just one of those smiley-eyed fools who blindly forged ahead in total self-deception and delusion.... I was humiliated time and again... The mission life was tough; sometimes excruciating, and I made some pretty big mistakes...I spent myself there on the soil in Central America, and if I was going to spend myself in that land of poverty and nameless towns frozen in the 1800s, then I would spend dearly....I left a part of myself in that land."

Shameful. Let us hope that the admins swiftly and repeatedly apply the lotion of comment moderation and the kleenex of banning.

GAY PORN IN SACRAMENT MEETING!

Exposed at BCC. Not in bbell's house.

John F. at BCC?

Why am I just now noticing that John F. is now a perma-blogger at BCC? For how long has this been going on?

By my reckoning, this makes him easily the most conservative perma-blogger there. (By that I mean that, at a minimum, he generally accepts the Church's claims to divine origin and direction, and is not in open opposition to its leaders or programs.)

Toscano'ed

Guess who's coming to dinner at FMH. Sandra Tanner and Nehor are next on the guest list.

Lou Midgley Strikes Again!

Have you heard about the time that Lou Midgley showed up unannounced at Times and Seasons and rudely interrupted Ardis Parshall in a food fight with the FAIRites?

Thomas Jefferson Education Also-Rans

The other Founders also are deserving of their own educational models. What of Ethan Allen, George Clinton and Josiah Bartlett? You Jeffersonians are so predictable (and snookered into a hapless moneymaking scheme).

Please help this poor man

Can anyone suggest the kindest way in which I could explain to this poor man that I too am deceased and am therefore unlikely to help him in his internet Burkina Faso scam?

Mansfield!

I think that we can all accept that the bloggernacle no longer revolves around DKL. Just look at the hullabaloo caused by one comment by that paragon of virtue, John Mansfield. It has inspired two threats from Mr. Adam Greenwood, esq. Further it seems to have inspired an entire thread full of invective and uncharitable assumptions at BCC.

Mansfield! It is a name that seemingly gets the testosterone flowing. Please tip your hat to the new generator of bloggernacle controversy.
