That's not a wave, Mac. That's me raising my hand along with all the members of your hatrack track ward to sustain you as our newest member and welcome you to the fold.

But I'm pretty sure that the Church Handbook of Instructions says that you have to serve it with funeral potatoes and jello salad.

Jon Boy-- It's so obvious how the influence of materialism has corrupted the Church in the west.
Brigham Young warned about your type of liberal attitude creeping into the church. Next you'll be saying that we needn't bring live goats to the temple for sacrifice-- just stop off at Albertson's for some rack of lamb, toss it on the alter as you walk by singing, 'Oops, I Did It Again.'
Here in the East (you know, where Zion will be built, once you Westerners get your heads out of your Amway training manuals) we do things the way that God intended. Baby on spit, slow roasting, kosher salt ONLY.
Next thing you know, you'll be calling yourselves Mormon Universlists, and holding folk song singouts in the cultural hall.

Congrats, Mack! Whoo-wee this month went by fast. When I saw the topic it took me a split second to remember why it was your day. (Not that everyday shouldn't be a Mack Day.) Hope the water wasn't too cold.
/taking notes
I guess the kosher salt is to enhance the natural sweetness of the baby. Makes sense.

I think this is the first time I've associated mack's nick name with slang for making out. At least, in my sociolinguistic study of high school students that seemed to be what it meant.
So did they get you all immersed in one try?

Scott, I'm not saying that I'm better than you just because my ancestors actually followed the commandment to move west . . .

I thought you Mormons were normal enough folk. You have one hellofa Christmas lights exhibition every winter at Smith's birthplace, which isn't very Vermonter-ly, but we're a tolerant folk. But eating babies!? With salt, even?! I'm distressed and amazed at once at the savagery. Babies are not for eating!
Congrats, Mack. You've been inducted into an order of very nice people (at least that's what they tell me). Good luck with whatever church duties you might be subject to (and of which I am mostly-ignorant).
Well... it's late. I think I'm going to hit the fridge and grab one of those oh-so-tasty kitten yogurt snacks before bed. 'night all.

Does it contain kittens or is it cultured cat milk? This reminds me of someone I'm related to who buys videos based on the cover. Movies she has not seen. Such as "Meet the Parents."
So as not to totally derail here, congrats, Mack!

Congrats, Mack! Did you get to go to the big, controversial temple for the ceremony? (The one they are building or built in Central Mass.?)

Baptisms aren't done in the temple, and I think new members have to wait at least a year to get a temple recommend (but I'm not positive about that).
