Re: Abba chicks, yes or no
Since my wife is Swedish the answer is clearly yes from me. My in-laws live in the small town that is considered Frida's hometown.

Re: DezNat/BYU Graduate, Shot By The FBI After Threatening To Kill Biden
The family is shocked and devastated per KSL. To borrow a phrase these types like to say to minorities, just comply with the cops and you won't have any problems. The neighbor said she could hear him refusing to leave his home when asked by authorities. We will never know, but I wonder if the guy me...

Re: Jeff Holland hospitalized
I am with Philo Sofee, seems like with his wife passing and all I hope for a dignified and peaceful exit for him. Interestingly his death would significantly raise the chance of Uchtdorf ascending the throne. I believe the semi-generic naïve actuarial table simulations put Nelson -> Oaks -> Holland ...

Re: Mormon PR photoshop is excessive
I always wondered why the photos of the 12 in seminary were their calling photos. Since the church generally likes to sell itself new prints/photos/artwork from their own printing press they could update them at least every time a new apostle was called. They'd be more recognizable at conference time.

Re: Nemo takes a deep dive into the temple construction gravy train
I will try and find it but someone did do an investigation of new houses built around temples. My Google-fu is failing me, but they had found a case that someone had donated the property to the church so they saved there, and then the person sold the property around it to developers who built houses...

Re: Nemo takes a deep dive into the temple construction gravy train
I'd certainly bow to your experience and such. I think generally what I have heard supports it, and peanuts may have just meant it wasn't excessive or anything. I would think it's a bit like service staff at a high end restaurant is making more in tips than someone at Chili's. It just goes with the ...

Re: Nemo takes a deep dive into the temple construction gravy train
It's a shame French Toast probably isn't lurking to see that we aren't blind Nemo fans. I think that there could be something here to look at and evaluate, but you need someone with some knowledge to really dig in and some of this is private and/or just not going to be revealed to the likes of Nemo....

Re: British LDS Successfully Lobbied for Background Checks
I don’t know, sometimes real world context can be interesting. Though I agree in this context I don’t know I buy what French Toast is selling, and even if Nemo is an annoying narcissist I applaud that he helped create pressure for this change to happen. Also if French Toast’s wife helped then good o...

Re: British LDS Successfully Lobbied for Background Checks
I am going to agree with Marcus and while you think you are having a laugh at Nemo my guess is it’s mostly only in your head. Any ally worth having that would compromise themselves for a stake calling is not worth one having, though my guess is that she won’t be asked to no longer associate with Nem...

Re: British LDS Successfully Lobbied for Background Checks
I was sitting a few rows behind him at our recent stake conference, and a friend was sitting in the row directly in front. That friend shared with me later that one of his siblings was overheard to say, "Please don't oppose the business," to which he responded, "I'll do what I like. This is my stak...
