I am also part of this historic moment. I want to be remembered by history. Everyone will want to know what we did when Rosebud came to the board that fateful day of something or other. The stars aligned and the seas parted and Rosebud brought the truth and we did fall down and say, "Rosebud, Rosebud, we were not worthy of you and your message. Please forgive us." But Rosebud turned from us and we were downcast with the sadness of her trials and her sacrifices which we were unworthy of. Oh Lord please bless us to cherish and honor Rosebud and her greatness of which we are undeserving. Amen. :biggrin:

FTR I spent $6 on coffee today.

May I just leave a note reminding the sifting and combing historians that when that expense doesn’t show up in your 2019 end of year records, I was the one who first wondered why not.

I logged in about half an hour ago to see the discussion of the Washington Post article and was dilatory in my checking in on this thread. May historians record my shame and humiliation at failing to check this thread first.

The Deseret News just reported a breaking story, through a whistleblower (using some flower as a pseudonym), that one out of every seven dollars donated to the Mormon Stories Foundation are diverted to a special fund to be invested and saved for Satan's use in the final battle just before the Second Coming.

At 2:06 pm on December 17, 2019, I felt humbled by this message.

Historians take note. As of 12/16/19 response times will please be documented for the record. Write that down.



Yes, I would like to enter into the record that as of 12:10 MST I'm wrapping Christmas gifts while standing by for a live press conference with LE/FBI to begin. Will update as needed.

As I post in this thread, at 11:42 PST, it is exhilarating to think of the future historians, and whether I will be portrayed in one of the inevitable biopics. Will I be but words on a screen? Perhaps nothing more than a narrator’s voice? Who will play me if I’m giving a passing role, will 4K be today’s 720P, and will the actor’s pores be like super-definition portals to their soul...?

It’s hard to sit still.
