This morning, we have a three-guest powerhouse panel of co-hosts, though the post title does make it sound a bit like a law firm.
Ardis Parshall is an independent historian and researcher. Her award-winning blog exploits can be found at www.keepapitchinin.org
Guy Murrray is an attorney in California. He blogs at messengerandadvocate.wordpress.com
Steve Taysom is a religious studies professor in Ohio. In addition to his books and articles, he does a bit of blogging at www.juvenileinstructor.org
Some ground rules for the open threads:
1. Be Nice.
2. Disagreement with the comments and talks is allowed…mocking is not.
3. This is a faithful..though liberal at times…Mormon blog. The threads will be conducted and moderated accordingly.
I look forward to everyone’s comments. I like Conference with friends.
I am making eggs while listening to the Music and the Spoken Word. My 5 year old daughter just made the connection that it is Sunday and we are not leaving, but instead watching church on TV.
“Cool,” she said. Then she asked if she was allowed to play with friends.
Scrambled, hard boiled, or over easy? . .
Music and the Spoken Word ends with previously recorded footage of flowers — all those tulips and daffodils are under snow this morning.
I only do scrambled with cheese. Good morning, Guy.
MSW is such an excellent way to get ready for conference. I’ve decided that I need to make some eggs as well.
Ardis, we woke up to snow in Casper as well. It was in the 70s yesterday.
#3 We’ve got about 6 inches in our yard.
Let’s do this!
Good Morning All–sounds like a great way to start conference
Cue the Cross Roads of the West in 4, 3, 2, 1 . . . Conference
That’s live snow-covered footage of the Conference Center, tho!
Very snowy looking morning–warmed by the choir’s voices
No snow in NE Ohio. We’ve already had about 100 inches already this year, so that will do.
Another acknowledgment of “a centrally directed Welfare program” anniversary.
Welfare, a trending conference topic this April
Our candy words for this session are “faith” and “repentance.”
I wonder if “social justice” will get a mention
Despite the snow covered grounds, I’m sure Temple Square is alive with colorful flowers as well, true, Ardis?
SC, it is all social justice. They do not need to say it. 🙂
Yes, Guy, the gardens are great this year. Many of the beds have heated water lines under them to encourage a nice show this early in the year.
Ya, I meant by name. As in “a centrally directed welfare system, even social justice.”
That “centrally directed” phrase was interesting.
So which is more visually appealing, the women in the choir in all blue or the Easter-egg look from yesterday?
Choir, looking and sounding fabulous
I like the powder blue
The Church’s welfare program rocks!!
Taysom is our fashion consultant for the session — look for updates on speaker ties!
Ardis, I’ve exhausted my fashion insight
and nothing on the “white shirts”
excellent conference prayer–unusually cogent and well-focused
The music has all been very calming this morning, both MSW and Conference opening. Nice that they’re singing something a lot livelier just before Pres. Uchtdorf!
… except that so far it’s a very calming arrangement.
I feel like the first presidency was all about the welfare program yesterday, everybody else not so much.
And those of us up here in Alaska laugh at y’all’s discussions of snow.
Love that multi deck keyboard. . .
One of my favorite hymns!
Nice arrangement, too.
good morning. wanna send some of those eggs my way Chris?
If your laughter affords you some consolation, David, laugh away. 🙂
If they actually say “social justice,” I will send SC Taysom a present.
narrator,
All gone, sorry.
President U!
It’s okay. My wife just told me she’d make me breakfast.
Wow. Have I mentioned before that U is just so darned handsome?
Saul – great opening.
Damascus transformed Saul and the World, just as the First Vision did for the Prophet Joseph and the last dispensation–liked that analogy
Cool. An epistemological talk. I hope Alma 32 makes an appearance
We need to do a better job helping people recognize the small steps of testimony. It’s no wonder people insist on something dramatic when that’s usually what we emphasize in teaching.
Also a little theodicy. Nice
Funny thing about testimonies—they’re never what they used to be–which can be good or bad depending on what you do to nurture them, or not . . .
Ardis, you’re #46 was my biggest complaint on my mission about how we were teaching people to expect to feel the spirit.
Ardis (#46): Of course, the opposite is possible—i feel like we talk about the little steps so much that some people feel like their big-event experiences must not be valid.
There might not be a good happy medium, actually.
I’ve been trying to figure out a way to blog that without sounding preachy and prissy.
David, I don’t know that I’ve ever heard about a big event that anyone doubted — that seems inherent in a big event.
Stories about dead children—:(
#51, Do not worry how it sounds. Preach away!
Well said, Ardis (#46)! My testimony came easily for me, but I know others who struggle with their testimonies. We should be mindful of them.
53 — and a *familiar* dead child story.
BTW, I took tweet notes of the PH session last night http://loydo38.blogspot.com/2011/04/general-conference-priesthood-tweet.html
I think David might be referring to something like a testimony meeting in which someone claims to have had a literal vision or the voice of God. In our current context, that would probably raise an eyebrow or two
I think President Monson is a good example of following promptings and doing loving service.
He’s talking to me. *sigh* I find it very easy to see the hand of God in the lives of other people, but very hard to see it in my own life.
By “big event” i mean something that’s a big event for the person themselves, not something like the First Vision or Saul on the road to Damascus.
58 – Oh, okay. I was thinking of a person questioning his own experiences, rather than people doubting the experiences of others.
I think a lot of people are like that Ardis. I know I am.
“Lord what will thou have me do?” Thing is, though as U points out, we have to be in tuned to the small promptings of the Spirit, because it’s quite unlikely our Road to Damascus will be as jarring as was Saul’s . . .
My children are fighting.
This address made an interesting pivot a couple minutes ago, switching from the need for people to move forward in their individual spiritual lives to the need for people to move forward in their service to others.
I heart U. Great talk.
I don’t like to share my few “big” moments because they always feel much bigger than they sound, if that makes sense.
“It is vital that we serve each other.” Pres. Uchtdorf.
Took me a long long long time to see the Lord’s hand in my life. Couldn’t see the forest for the trees.
Ha! Yes, I have no doubt that pulling a handcart is easier than being a member missionary!
SC Taysom (#68): Yeah, that’s a good way of describing the stuff i was talking about.
#69 Chris–sounds like Social Justice to me
That does make sense SC (what are we supposed to call you in public?) — that’s been my experience, too.
He referred to his wife by first name. This makes me happy.
you can call me steve on here
Plug for Facebook here–a “useful gadget” for sharing the gospel!!!
(David, because of the way the comments appear, it seems I’m only responding to SC, but I appreciate your comments in this sub-thread, too.)
Aviation joke FTW!
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLL!!!!!!!! Funniest self depreciating moment in GC ever.
David–you’re right. I wouldn’t have noticed that! I will have to mention this to my eternal companion, Sister Taysom.
(Well, meta-joke, i guess.)
“… and if necessary, use words.”
I talk about my church at work, but I am not sure if I am really doing missionary work…but I am just not very shy or private.
My favorite talk so far this whole conference.
Keep moving along our Roads to Damascus–with Faith, Hope & Charity . . Great Talk
Amen Brother D
That was a great talk
THAT was great.
Being willing to talk about the church at work has led me to discover how many part-member families and (non-hostile) former members of the church i’m surrounded by, giving me more people to talk about spiritual things with. That, of itself, has made the risk of personal openness worth it.
Oh no. Any attempt in a talk to explain evil always ends up so fake and overly simplistic.
Apropos of nothing, I wish I could listen to a GC translation in English that filtered out that peculiar Mormon accent.
any Doctrine, Loydo?
91. Yep. And more sick kids. Ugh.
Lots of kids with cancer this morning.
Trials and afflictions necessary for putting on Divinity–building our character (though we probably don’t look at them that way at the time). . .
On the other hand, it’s not like we can ignore the suffering inherent on mortality.
Hey! If there weren’t a Mormon accent, i’d have to find a different job—don’t wish that on me!
(I’m a sociolinguist, and most of my research these days deals with Mormon and non-Mormon linguistic differences.)
I’m going to count myself as very rich ore from now on — maybe it will cheer me up during the tempering. (Tongue only half in cheek. It really might help.)
Good is not enough–Perfection is the ultimate goal
#91: I appreciate the attempt, even if it turns out that way.
Always darkest before the dawn? Seems like it was that way with the Prophet Joseph, during the first vision and also Liberty Jail . . .
#93, after a slow turnout yesterday I have decided not to count anymore
Ardis, you are very valuable ore.
This talk interests me on a variety of levels–many of them professional because of the work I have been doing on Mormon rites of affliction. Is that so wrong?
Yes, Paul’s light afflictions were anything but
Nothing wrong with that Steve. I am always looking for social justice themes and references to disability.
Not so very wrong, Steve. 🙂
This is a talk I will appreciate more in the reading afterward. I think there’s a great deal here, but each sentence takes such a big step that it will be easier to read than hear.
Steve (#105): Hey—i spend most of my time listening to L. Tom Perry counting instances of the card-cord merger (the “Spanish Fark” thing). Go ahead and be evil, um, listen for such issues with me.
This talk is painful for me–is this suffering also for my good? Though, if blessings are tied to suffering, I hope that later today I can be kidnapped, raped, tortured, and slowly killed. Just think of the lessons and blessings I would get!
Leibnitz’ theodicy gets an oblique (and likely unintentional) shout out.
Haven’t you got somewhere else to hang out today, Loyd?
can do all things through Christ which strengthen us–a favorite of Norman Vincent Peale
Narrator (#110): Yeah, i know what you mean. Growing up, i felt like a lot of people in my ward were in competition to have the biggest trials. Maybe they were thinking that brought them closer to Jesus’s ultimate trials?
Somehow one day when we get to the other side of the veil—I don’t think “we’ll be done”
My friend Chris R. suffered from terrible depression. When we were both 16 he went home after sacrament meeting and started the car in his garage. The last time I saw him he was cold and in a coffin. Some trials are too much for the sufferer.
It’s a difficult fact that mortality, just like the temple, is all about the wounds
You know, this is all making me think that the stories (are they just urban legends?—one can hope) of early Xians trying to get martyred is a rational, though in my opinion wrong, reaction to the idea that trials are Good Things.
Not urban legends David.
Bishop Burton has been getting some good press lately. He is looking good these days.
I love talks on temporal welfare.
David (#114) and narrator (#110) – When I was in college, the theme among the married wards was to either brag about how well someone was doing (in either school or financially or whatever), or commiserate (and, in a sense, brag) about how many trials they were going through, always followed up with an addendum about how they were thankful for trials. I understand exactly why someone would brag about trials, but it always rubbed me the wrong way.
I’ve long believed that temporal salvation must precede spiritual salvation. Nice to see that idea given a shout-out in general conference. (Makes sense it’d be the presiding bishop to do so.)
I arranged this just for you Chris.
April 6, 1936 Welfare program instituted–of course in the midst of the great depression. What about something from this last “great recession” other than pull yourselves up by your boot straps?
Wow. Close the temples to feed the people.
This is a better follow-up to the previous talk. Instead of telling the sufferers to suck it up, we can focus on helping the sufferer to be relieved from their pain.
I’ve listened to some of the general conference addresses from when the church welfare plan was just getting started. Yep, Elder Burton’s description of how deeply President Grant felt about this is accurate.
#112. Ardis, if you feel that I am not welcome here, just tell me to leave and I will go.
Social justice is a pre-condition to healthy spiritual community.
Wow, willing to close the temples and the seminaries, but never will stop caring for the poor. Feeling the Lowell Bennion.
Isn’t plain ol’ “helping people” pretty good too?
I think I am a few minutes behind everyone else.
Why do we insist on trying to say that we’re not helping people, we’re helping people help themselves? There’s political code words in there, and that bothers me a little.
(Not to say that encouraging self-reliance is a bad thing, by any stretch.)
Self reliance? Wait a minute. What about “Shelf Reliance?” Don’t we all need that wonderful contraption as well? 😉
Ya, it’s pretty good Steve, but nobody screams and yells and gets offended by that phrase. Where’s the fun in that?
Steve M, it is very good. It is only one part.
Golden threads of charity–used to weave righteous societies
King Benjamin speaks in General Conference today . . .
Follow-up thought to my #132: Of course, you could hear that tension in various GA’s addresses on the topic in the late 30s, too.
“No matter how many temples we build, how big the membership grows, how well our public image is, if we fail to help the poor and in need, we are under condemnation.”
Best quote (well summary of a quote) in GC ever.
I no longer bristle at “self-reliance.” Instead, I focus on the social conditions that make real self-reliance possible. More for another day.
#112, #128, Loydo, you are the reason I am hanging out here this morning. Don’t go.
Flying to the relief of the stranger! It’s not just our fellow Mormons we need to care about (though he didn’t say that directly).
Dead horses!
Bishop Burton is one of my heroes.
Despite my earlier quibble about “helping others,” I must say, this is a pretty good talk.
#138: Guy, that is so true! With similar, though his own, eloguence.
I have to admit it—the story of the Willie & Martin companies has been told so often and in so many ways that the hugeness of it has been bleached for me.
I find this unfortunate.
As a descendant of some of the dead Willie/Martin folks, I have always thought it would have been even more helpful to stop the handcart companies from leaving so late that year. Uh, nevermind.
There’s an interesting article in the Brian Cannon and Jessie Embry edited collection-Utah in the 20th Century. It’s by Joseph Darowski, “The WPA Versus the Utah Church.” Synopsis:
“…Other scholars have acknowledged that New Deal officials and the LDS Church leadership clashed over the role of the federal government and the church in meeting the needs of the stat’s residents. Both sides claimed that their own programs best met Utahn’s needs. Joseph F. Darowski describes the way that New Deal administrators, especially a former Utahn and Mormon, Dean Brimhall, contracted with sociologist Louis Wirth to show that the church’s welfare program was NOT (emphasis mine] meeting the needs of its members. Darowski’s new evidence amplifies the disagreements between private, church-run programs and federal ones beyond what other researchers have previously discussed.”
#140–sounds pretty close to me–it was a great quote . . .
I live an hour away from Martin’s Cove (and I have lived near Echo). We need a Casper blogger conference or something.
Hi Jared!
Principles of Welfare plan define who we are as a people . . .
“Helping the poor is the work that we would find Jesus doing if he were here today.”
“Be kind to the poor” as final deathbed counsel. That kindness (not just helping them, or even helping them help themselves) isn’t something we focus on very much these days, i’m afraid.
Powerful stuff–can’t wait to see it in print
Now if we can hear talks like this as often as we hear about p*rn, we might actually have a chance of internalizing it.
Hi SCT!
Amen Brother B!!!!
By far, the best talk of this conference. Much better than Eyring, who IMO, misses the point.
Thanks, Jared.
Between this talk and Pres. Eyring yesterday…my heart overfloweth.
We’re already at the halfway point? That went fast!
My eyes are moist with tears. I so wish this was stressed more.
What happened to Ardis?
the narrator,
The two talks go together. I know from some close sources that Pres. Eyring absolutely gets it.
Definitely a great talk.
@158, I haven’t heard much about teh pr0n this time around, except for perfunctory references here and there. Which is nice.
That was either a really cool key change, or a nicely fortuitous accident at the organ.
I made those cinnamon rolls that Tracy M. posted about yesterday. I totally screwed up the execution, but they were pretty fantastic. Just saying.
#165, I don’t doubt that Eyring gets it. I just don’t like when the blessings for the server are emphasized over the blessings for the served.
Though, perhaps Eyring does a good job of reaching out and getting service from those who would only do it for self-interest.
@167 Yeah they have backed off a bit. I guess I was thinking about the seemingly endless references that we used to get in the later Hinckley years,
Pass the rolls please . . .
Another talk on welfare. Now if only we could get this without a welfare anniversary.
Relief Society–to assist in the relief of the poor–great to get back to our roots.
Sure SC Taysom.
Maybe Brigham Young could have used his magical teleporting walking stick to shoot halfway across the continent and tell Brother Martin that leaving now is a bad idea.
Can’t imagine why that option didn’t occur to brother Brigham.
Narrator (#170): I felt like that was the point of it—motivate the people who were slacking on it because they’re behaving simply as rational actors, and hopefully they’ll get the spirit of it as they start to participate.
Narrator (#173): I’m stealing that thought.
The ward is really such a great structure for both temporal and spiritual welfare.
I think the anniversary was a way to emphasize it more. I don’t think it’s going to go away . . .
@Seth. Easy man. It was more complicated than that. Three was time to stop it.
Love as a motivating force for church welfare actions. What a radical concept!
Let us be happy that we are focusing on this now. Elder Burton has talked about it before. No need for zingers.
Now that my family is suddenly comfortably middle-class (as opposed to the barely middle-class we’ve been for a long time), i’ve wondered how to live up to the story of the widow and her two mites. Still haven’t really figured it out.
#182, not a zinger. Just an observation that the emphasis on humanitarian aid this conference is due to the welfare anniversary. I recognize that Burton has stressed this. However, besides Burton and Monson’s Oct 09 Sunday AM talk, humanitarian aid and taking care of the poor usually only gets a quick nod in conference talks.
My hope is that this can continue as an emphasis and primary theme in conference talks. However my guess is that in 6 months it will return to quick nods and de-emphasized.
I wish she’d had one of the longer slots they give to certain other positions—it would have been nice to hear that one a little less rushed.
Sister Allred brought a neat international take on the theme.
Bednar: speaking to Ardis’s point earlier.
Holy Ghost belongs to everyone in the Church, and has been baptized . . .
separates availability of revelation from administrative hierarchy–I like this.
The Allreds are definitely nice folks. I’ve been in their home, know one of their daughters, etc.
I was hoping that Bednar would use Oliver Cowdery and the translation of the BofM to say that we should all have divining rods to determine the will of God.
The idea that the Holy Ghost isn’t a powerful enough god to cut through our own acquired spiritual deafness has always bothered me somewhat.
Revelation’s conveyed in a variety of ways. The light analogy in now itself enlightening . . .
#192–why is it a function if His power or lack, rather than our own preparedness?
Revelation can occur either suddenly or gradually. I like that he’s allowing for both possibilities in the same address—we don’t get that very often.
David, me too. Or the idea that the spirit won’t go into certain places where “sinning” is going on.
#50: David, do you think he was successful in striking a happy medium?
We seldom learn to build ships of curious workmanship all at once–it comes line upon line and precept upon precept. This appears to be how time and eternity work . . .
Guy Murray (#194): Oh, i know. It just seems like the idea that our own lack of preparedness in some way forbids the Holy Ghost from reaching us, well, i’d think the Holy Ghost is more powerful than that.
Now, the idea that the Holy Ghost can inspire us but we can then choose to ignore it, sure. But that’s not the way it’s generally phrased.
Guy,my wife wishes to Lord would teach me to build something…anything.
Mine too, Chris.
Totally channelling Ardis.
Bored (#197): I think so, at least as much as can be done in an oral address.
I like the downplaying of the great, huge, & miraculous events.
Doubts are normal!
Now he just needs to tell people who have powerful manifestations that they are normal, too…
#200 Chris–you just did a pine wood derby car–wasn’t it of curious workmanship?
I left my DietCokes in the car. BRB.
All this talk about sunrises and such is really resonant if you’ve experienced subarctic midwinters and midsummers, by the way.
#207: Guy, curious would be one way to put it. 🙂
The whole concept of acting/being acted upon is a fascinating and rich one. I wish it got more notice.
David #199–perhaps it’s a trite example, but I think the idea that inspiration comes to us like radio signals come to tuners is one I believe. If we are not tuned in on the correct frequency, we aren’t going to receive the signal–regardless of how strong.
I like this talk, but I can see ow some might find it frustrating
I’m glad to hear Oliver Cowdery used as a positive example.
Wake up and do something more than dream—seems to be a theme here . . .
Sometime I’ll try…
#211: Elder Bednar has focueed on it elsewhere.
214: Jared, I really love Oliver.
My internet went out in the middle of Bednar’s talk. What did I miss?
Guy (#212): Point taken. Of course, right now i live so close to one station’s transmitter that it shows up at a lot of unexpected places on the radio dial (and in the phone line, and in speakers connected to computers, and…)
I think that what you’re presenting is what it’s like most of the time. I just wish we’d sometimes allow that occasionally (and maybe only when it’s really needed) the Holy Ghost can act like 98.9 FM in the Abbott Loop neighborhood of Anchorage. I mean, it’s not like Saul or Ammon and friends were behaving according to the dictates of God’s will, you know?
The choir is indeed a critical element of any conference session–and a great selection for the closing hymn–The Spirit of God . . .
For those who missed it, Pres. Eyring read from this hymn in his Saturday morning talk.
BTW, glad they played my favorite hymn to follow up Burton and Allred’s talks.
The members of the first presidency have to write a lot of speeches leading up to general conference.
He had widows in his ward?
FYI, LDS.org has HD downloads of all of yesterday’s talks already available (including the PH session) http://lds.org/general-conference/sessions?lang=eng
Ahh, President Monson and his widows. 🙂
ok, my favorite topic. Temples!
Steve (#224): Yes, i seriously laughed out loud (getting an odd look from my wife, so i read it to her, and she giggled, too).
I love his widow stories.
David #219–yeah that’s true. And, I confess I don’t have the slightest idea of how it all works. But, the Road to Damascus wasn’t really the finely tuned still small voice. But, I hear what you’re saying . . .
“as a very young bishop…and 84 widows.”
They are good stories Chris. I just couldn’t resist a little jest.
I wonder if he’s going to talk about why they are building another ID temple..
Oh, I appreciate the jest!
The contrast between the journey to and from the temple was cool—both are difficult and bumpy and all, but the return was coupled with the joy of having received those ordinances.
An employer gives you a one-way ticket to work in a mine? Ya, that’s a great sign.
Caring for the poor and temples…Nibley would have liked this session.
Amen, Chris.
trials and testimonies, faith and fasting, sacrifice and service–all related to Temples . . .
Temples are built on trials. I like that.
I wonder how many times Guy and I can post the same idea at the same time?
He’s not asking it directly, but underlying this whole address is the question: How much is the temple worth to you?
#241: Something about great minds and great beards.
That’s very quotable. I think we’ll be hearing that a lot in the future.
Yes David. And he might yet ask it directly.
My #242: Okay, never mind, now he asked it directly.
#242: Subtext!
85% of Church members live within 200 miles of a Temple (In Utah your mileage may vary) . . .
I need to make a better effort. It’s only 2.5 hours for me.
#241 SC–it’s all a function of how quickly we hit the enter key I suppose 😉
#243–I’m sure that must be it, Chris 😉
25 minutes for me. More than one temple within range.
I need to stop complaining about my 4 hour distance. Steve, is Palmyra your temple?
Guy (#248): Yeah, i’m always amazed at the people who come to Anchorage from Whitehorse regularly, even in the winter. (And there’s no straight-line roads, nor is there direct or even reasonably-priced indirect air service.) That takes dedication i’m not sure i have.
No, it’s the Columbus, Ohio temple. Palmyra is about 4 hours from here.
Geez, all my kids just cast their eyes around the room, and, not seeing a temple picture, looked at ME accusingly!! #motherguilt!
Does this mean going to the temple to do early-morning baptisms is a valid excuse for missing early-morning seminary?
I guess Kirtland is the nearest one for ya.
We have a temple just over the border in Juarez. People go, but I don’t have a passport and I also feel fine going to another temple when we visit my parents rather than gamble my life in the world’s most violent city. But that’s just me.
Indeed. Just right up the road.
No longing for martyrdom huh Jared?
Jared, you are just a wimp. 🙂
Temples are beacons to a failed and fallen world–beacons of our testimonies that life beyond the grave is real–a place where time intersects with Eternity . . .
Great session–and a great closing hymn . . .
woah! a solo!
No passport? I pictured you doing research across the border regularly, Jared.
I bet that soloist lost some sleep last night.
wait for it the whole choir will get there . . .
I know, I guess I lack faith. But the obit would be killer.
…well as it started…
You don’t get solos very often in general conferences.
Or duets. (Or so on.)
I’m liking this so far.
Wow, Steve Zahn is in the choir?
Organ swells, and…
amen and amen . . .
Great rendition of “The Spirit of God.”
This was fun
BIV, haven’t had occasion to yet. I would have, but for how bad it is. There have been a number of stories on the news since we’ve gotten here of someone going across just to shop or visit family and getting it. The funeral for that famous consolate-related murder last year was held in our chapel. Was in the other ward, but same building. Their orphaned one year old child is with grandparents in our ward. It’s pretty nuts. But on the US side–nary a peep, fortunately. So, no, I’d rather go a little less frequently somewhere else, thank you. So far the worst that’s happened is someone took a wrong turn on the way and was mugged, fortunately.
Hurrah! They sang “blessing in Zion” (not “blessings in Zion”). </pet_peeve>
I would have killed–yes, committed murder–to be in the conference center for that closing hymn
Thanks Chris for having us over . . .
Great Session! Thanks to Ardis, Guy, and Steve! Also thanks to all who made comments and those who lurked.
This afternoon, Bored in Vernal will be my co-host.
…I’ll be nice.
Thanks, Chris!
or, at least I’ll try.
thanks Chris. sorry for scaring off one of your co-hosts.
looks like her internet connection may have just failed.
No. It didn’t.
I love all of you and I wish we could all get along.
Squabbles aside, this was really a great way to spend conference, Chris. Well done.
Yes, Chris. Thanks for inviting me. The conference itself was great, and inviting commenters was a great idea. General Conference is still for me primarily a religious experience, and sharing it with others who recognize it as such will always enhance the experience.

Black flags fluttered by Prague’s Hradcany Castle, i would say the seat associated with an president’s offices overlooking generally capital, as Klaus and as well as others signed the new condolence take. Across town, hundreds linked with individuals who have flowers lined up found at some sort of former St. Anna Church to successfully view his remains.

Sometimes a single movie is simply no more important than the problem probably will be, along with the satisfaction this kind of gives is considered to be entirely a meaningful consequence pointing to its being exceptionally all right available – having casting but also conception, at experience and after that plotting, and as well as of unquestionably the moment-by-moment execution.
