'Fighting Insanity' <br>Setting the record on Mormons straight

This may surprise some people, but I do not have horns and a tail.

Yes, there are some people that believe such things.

Why? Because I am a Mormon.

'The Decline of Mojo'
Kids baffle me again and again

'The Decline of Mojo' <br>Kids baffle me again and again

The voices of children are the most sacred tools in the province of honesty.

They can stare in earnest at a completely foreign concept, scratch their heads and genuinely ask: Why?

And they can do so with a base sense of purity that, for most people, dissipates at the age of 12. (0) comments

'Don't drink until you're 21'
doesn't make sense to me

I think we should all drink before we turn 21, but I'm not saying the legal drinking age should be changed or anything. I'm not going to give a statistical argument or whatever. Wikipedia can be my best friend next time.

Name one person who didn't drink until they turned 21. (1) comment

Watch out for thieves
dressed in fluffy white robes

Watch out for thieves <br>dressed in fluffy white robes

This last weekend I stayed in a lovely hotel in San Francisco. It had floor-to-ceiling windows with a view of AT&T Park and the Bay Bridge. The bed was overflowing with fluffy white pillows, and the room came with free HBO.

So how did I repay this establishment that not only brought me extra tea packets but also made me reservations for a swanky little restaurant?

I cleaned out the room of basically everything that wasn't nailed down. (0) comments
