Indeed, with sneering, invective name-calling, and extreme hostility. That's how I was welcomed...since we're calling it welcoming.

You have an overactive imagination.

You're practically Jesus Christ Jr. Let's paint a mural to honor the suffering you've endured at the hands of the rogues of MD.

pep pep...the sneering you offer only bolsters my over-stated point. I know I over-stated it. But, the gist is there.

stumplow, you are welcome to post. Why the surprise that your views are thought asinine and ridiculed by some? Free interchange here is just fine. Even slimeone and the space-boy post here so that shows you that anyone can do it.

Why don't you try dropping the 'pep-pep' schtick, the incessant sarcasm and the entirely disingenuous 'love ya tons' and see if your contributions here gain more respect?

I'm not surprised. I was merely commenting on the "welcoming" environment. I've seen plenty of non-welcome responses to me to get an idea of how Joseph Smith would be welcome here.

Seeing the quality of posts that do gain respect, I'm not sure I'm game to bend to your demands. Whether I'm geniune or not is only known by me. Its up to you to make judgments and pronouncements about me, if ya like.

Carolyn wanted so much to give Roger something nice for Christmas, but they didn’t have much money, and they had to spend every last cent on candy for the baby. She walked down the icy streets and peered into shop windows.

“Roger is so proud of his shinbones. If only I could find some way to get money to buy shinbone polish.” Just then, a sign caught her eye. “Cuticles bought and sold.” Many people had told Carolyn of her beautiful cuticles, and Roger was especially proud of them, but she thought, “This is the way I could buy Roger the shinbone polish!” And she rushed into the store.

Later at home, she waited anxiously as Roger came up the steps of their flat. He opened the door and wobbled over to the fireplace, suspiciously holding one arm behind his back. “Merry Christmas!” they both said, almost simultaneously. Roger spoke. “Hey, Nutsy, I got you a little something for Christmas.” “Me too,” said Carolyn, and they exchanged packages.

Carolyn hurriedly opened her package staring in disbelief. “Cuticle Frames?! But Roger, I sold my cuticles so I could afford to buy you some shinbone polish!”

“Shinbone polish!” said Roger, “I sold my shinbones to buy you the cuticle frames!” Roger wobbled over to her. “Well, I’ll be hog-tied,” said Carolyn.

“You will? Oh, boy!” said Roger. And it turned out to be a great Christmas after all.


I thought that was the "gift of the three Nephytes"!
