I haven't see Gaz in a while. I wonder if he has left us, too. Gazzy, where are you?
;)
I was offended by a comment from an unmentionable here on the boards, and so have spent my time curled up on the couch with my teddy bears Joseph And Hyrum listening to Fergie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnbBVWDtYm0
I was interspacing this with Marathon viewing of Pride and Prejudice on DVD.
I think I'm almost healed and may be back soon.
Love you all,
Gaz
See, if you could just get Good Gaz to conquer Bad Gaz there wouldn't be a problem...

See now, theres the problem, interpretation. What is good and what is evil? How does one interpret such things? How do you know its not just your own cognitive disonance telling you its wrong when its not really, oh the quandries that flash across ones mind at the mere thought of being able to distinguish between right and wrong.....
Who is to say?

Good question. The answer is me, pretty much. I plan on taking over the world soon, so if you know what's good for you, you'll get on board ASAP. Since you've worked in construction, I'll let you be on the Committee To Tear Down New Buildings in Salt Lake That I Don't Like. That list is growing every day.

My TBM neighbor called me when she discovered I was leaving Mormonism and told me my home was covered in a black shroud of evil and that she couldn't even bring herself to look at it! Her husband later called and said his children wouldn't be allowed to play with mine and hoped we understood that he needed to protect them from the evil influence that had overtaken our home.
The funny thing was that our neighbors were unemployed at the time and they kept getting Wal Mart gift cards for groceries and other necessities from an anonymous benefactor, whom they believed to be the ward. Well, it wasn't the ward giving them the money, it was ME! And they wouldn't even look at my home! I was upset by their behavior, and thought about not giving them money, but one of their children told my daughter at school that she missed coming to our house because when she was here she could have all the milk she wanted. I kept helping them and to this day they've no idea who did it. I'm sure they still think it was the Mormons from their ward and not the evil apostate next door.

That is such an absurd and tragic story.
You have a good heart, and by all means, did the true, selfless, Christ-like thing.
You know....I hope they find out about their "apostate" neighbor. Maybe someday they'll realize what selfless love is all about.
The comment about the child not having enough milk at home is heartbreaking. Have they found employment?

Still waiting for Will to back this up...

To which your daughter should have replied(as in EXPECTED by the girls TBM parents), "Oh we don't drink milk now, we only have cheap beer and hard liquor on hand. that's all my parents ever buy now.... beer on corn flakes is really good!"
What a bunch of stupid fools. You really should burst their precious bubble and tell them it has been you giving them the gift cards to white trash mart. God, can you hear them fawning over the members as they express their gratitude to the unwitting ward for the gracious gifts... all the while all of the fools in the ward are busting their arms patting themselves on the back for being part of SUCH a wonderful church, AND thinking what BAD neighbors the exmo KA family are for just turning their backs on them!
