12. Everyone of the opposite s3x (at least when returning from a mission)
13. The use of the word "friggin"
14. Root beer
15. Steve Young
16. Sentences that start with "When I was on my mission..."

To be fair, here are some things that attract Catholics as well:

1. Mel Gibson's movies
2. Guilt
3. Only attending church at Christmas and Easter
4. Explaining to people what they are giving up for lent
5. Fish Fry Fridays
6. The use of the word "transubstantiation," but not being asked for the explanation

I challenge all other posters, if not LDS, to reply in like fashion to whatever religion/philosophy you profess (yes, that includes you atheists and agnostics as well....)


OK, OK, I think both of these lists are hilarious. You're forgetting, however,

1. Uno
2. Skip-Bo
3. Soccer jerseys from where they served their mission
4. Daydreaming about being married when they're on their mission
5. Getting home from church on Fast Sunday
6. Stories about no Mormons showing up to work on 9/11
7. Pasta bowls at Olive Garden
8. Dollar theaters
9. Playing the guitar in front of women
10. Kirby Heyborn (or however you spell his last name)
I like you Betty...

I was worried that you had bailed out. Glad to see you're still here.

Can you run remote desktop?

Lost in time
And lost in space...and meaning

If his work place is anything like mine, they probably run a proxy server and would determine the faux VPN to be a security risk and fire him.

My work fired a friend of mine because he was connecting to his website via IP address (he didn't have a domain name).

So does the Google toolbar and you can install it on IE.

Another trick I use on thin clients includes changing performance options to optimize for performance (turn off window animations, etc).
