Today was open mic day at sacrament meeting. We have a new bishopric. Brother Durfey was made bishop while were gone. He's a great man. Don't tell him I said that. Yesterday at the boating party, I was joking around with him. I put on a life jacket and asked him, "Does this thing make my butt look big?" He said, "No. Your BUTT makes makes your butt look big." Jerk.
Rode 11 miles tonight. Got bored. Good thing, too. Just made Exit 141 on I75 and had to pee. There is a bunch of gas stations there and some fast food. I had my iPod on and the tv on with closed captioning on, but the shows were all stupid. I think I twisted a ligament in my left new. It's given me problems since the last time I did it in 1975. We ate crock pot country style ribs today with Loni. Perfect day.
Brother Melling asked me today, "Will you take the priesthood next week? Brother Malone will be gone?" "Sure." Then as I sat there with him talking, Brother Fredline came up to me, "Will you take gospel doctrine next week? I'm subbing for Sister Moffat and I'll be gone, too." "Sure." I turned to Brother Melling and said, "I might as be the speaker for sacrament meeting, too, then it can be the Brian Show." He said, "Well, I'm speaking and you are welcome to do it." I declined, but then Sister Durfey came and said to me, "Will you take a primary class next week?" Brother Melling and I were wiping tears from our eyes from laughing so hard. She just said, "Am I too late?"
An old bishop used to call this the STP Principle: The Same Ten People. It's the same in any organization. If you want something done, ask the busy people.

How are you tracking your miles and where did you find the atlas that shows where you are?
I need one.

I just use maps.google.com, use the "Get directions" link, type in the start and approximate end points, then adjust the end point to exactly where my miles are right for that day. Oh, call me. I'll walk you through it. It's a bit convoluted from this point, using Paint to adjust it. Also, Google maps has a picture function to look at pics around the place, too. Google Earth has a few pics, but not as many, sometimes.
Hey Brian, in your "younger years" picture, what is the orange thing next to your arm? You got tennis elbow or something???
Did this comment get through? Kurt
Hurray! I finally got access to post a comment. I can see why Cindy took a hankerin to ya. Of course I have seen your butt a couple of years ago and it looked nice then too. Even got to put a hard pointy thing into it. That was a needle you dirty minded people! But I still remember us rooming together in Arkansas.
Trudy, the orange thing is an...orange...my cousin is holding. I have tennis elbow today. Kurt. I remember hiking with Jeff Heath and watching him spring up the trail, which you cried going downhill and I cried going uphill. Then and there we decided that we would do day hikes and rent a motel room, sit in the hot tub downstairs after hiking, eat at Outback, and rent Arnold movies in the room. THAT'S camping.
