Conference Call

Being Conference weekend, I thought I’d start out with a joke of a spiritual nature—a family favorite even.

What do you call a religious Dorito?
-a chipmunk

Mike & I went to Priesthood meeting yesterday. It was difficult but we decided to leave the ice chest at home. A couple of observations:

--We have a men’s choir from Brigham City. Mike asks if any of our cousins might be there. Uh, no. No sign of Wilford Brimley either. Highly disappointing.

--Why is it that the General Authorities use middle and other initials? Is it because we might get confused with another Gordon Hinckley that lives in Iowa and works at the local Chucky Cheese’s? Why doesn’t this apply to Bishops on the ward programs? I’m full of questions. I guess it’s just one of those things that you never find out the reason. It’s like wondering why anyone in their right mind would buy a Ralph Tresvant album. You’ll always just end up scratching your head and decide to move on in life.

--Note to the brethren: all buildings need wireless internet. You know, to take notes, use online thesaurus, speaker bios, etc.

--Elder Eyring strangely resembles someone famous—after racking my brain, the only name I could come up with is Bob Saget…I don't know. Another resemblance: D. Todd Christoferson looks like Glenn Beck’s long lost older brother. What Nick?!

That's all I have. Can't wait to see some of you in a couple of days.
