DCP took a list of customers from one of his commercial ventures, gave it to a bishop friend, and the bishop then accessed an LDS Church document (i.e., leadership directory) and checked each name on DCP's customer list to determine whether any name on that list matched a name in the Church's document. This violates so many parts of Section 13.8 in Handbook 1, that this bishop MUST be released IMMEDIATELY.
So is the Bishop still a Bishop?

My three favorite cowbell songs:
1-Rolling Stones, Honky Tonk Women
2-Blue Oyster Cult, Don't Fear the Reaper
3-Red Hot Chili Peppers, Adventures of Raindance Maggie.
Because even cowbells get the blues, here is some more classic cowbell:
Pink Floyd, Young Lust ACDC, Hell's Bells Santana, Oye Como Va Talking Heads, Once in a Lifetime Aerosmith, Walk This Way Eath, Wind, and Fire, September Wild Cherry, Play That Funky Music
My favorite cowbell songs are, which one makes the top of my list changes depending on mood and activity.
Liz, perhaps you could ask Dan about this on your private board? There is no way he'll tell us here. Thanks in advance.

Interesting, indeed.
Not really that interesting at all. I don't really understand why you are having a hard time "getting" this.
Dan has been stalked by a member of this board for the past six years. Do you really think he wants to expose a friend of his to the possibility of the same treatment? I wouldn't.
