File under: You get what you pay for


Would you be my, could you be my, won't you be my neighbor? I'm glad we're together again. Let's see if Picture Picture has anything to show us today. Hi. Picture Picture, please show us the name of the film for today. Words. Oh, a film about words. That'll be good to look at. How graceful they are. Beautiful.

Let's look at the words in our Scriptures. Do you have Scriptures? I bet you do. They are the dusty books your parents carry around on Sunday, but don't look at the rest of the week. Do you know where they are? Good. That's right, go ahead and get them and follow along with me.

We won't actually read them, we'll just look at them, and notice they have neighbors too, just like you and I are neighbors. Words are put together in lines, called sentences. Can you say "sentences"? Good. These words that are next to each other in sentences are neighbors, and sometimes some words like to be close to other words more often because they play together well and sound nice. Point this out to your family and friends, and they will think you are smart and be impressed, even though you don't read them yourself.

Nate, I suggest that you chill out a little bit. Your mad rhetorical flailings are making your look a little bit like someone in need of medication and therapy.

So who gets to play King Friday?

And what about that whiney little tiger-whatever-his-name-was?

Snarky: Thank you so much for posting this. I was wondering when someone was going to call Frank on his pathetic Mr. Rogers imitations. If we didn't have you hear to speak "truth to power" I just don't know what I would do.

And you are SOOOO funny. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for just being the force for good that you are. I can feel your sweet spirit so much from what you write. In fact, just last fast and testimony meeting I got up gave you a big, tearful thanks. All I can say is that the whole ward could feel of your goodness and uprightness. You are an example to us all...

Kaimi, I know it is hard for you to be funny and original, or even mildly amusing and interesting, but please do try. For the sake of everyone. Thanks.

SnarkieNarker, well, come on now, you know I am really funny and very original, and am the all powerful leader of the very best blog in the Nacle so I could crush you with my brilliance with a single glance of one of my clever spoof pages. And even though I am on sabbatical I am the rockinest permablogger there. My content is so fresh it should be slapped in the mouth, and you know it. You are just jealous you have never been asked to guest blog at T&S, the awesomest blog ever, and you never will be!!! Nanny nanny boo boo!
