If he said, I didn't hear it. I'll see if google can help.

No specs are available at this time.

Someone should send him my book. ;-)

Praise be to ALMIGHTY GOD! It's a Christmas miracle - two years without crappy saccharine pop releases from another Auto-Tune worshiping pretty boy.

My God is an awesome God!

I wonder how many times he will be asked if he masturbates - and how many times his attorney/agent will say "no comment."

I'll bet his agent is doing a facepalm.

They're going to have to send him to South Korea or something, some place where nobody knows him.

Then again, they put socialite Elizabeth Smart in France, then proceeded to stick her out in well traveled paths playing her harp while her teenage companions passed out tripe books about a white Jesus.

Perhaps they'll do the same. The Cult is all about PR.

I'm guessing that a young missionary cannot choose where he will go. I'm not a Mormon, but if that is possible, I'll take two years in Napa Valley. I won't have to pay for it myself, will I?

You missed the young man deadline so you will have to go as a couple with your life partner. Yes, of course you pay and of course you don't choose unless you are friends with a VIP. They really need couples in Africa because so few accept the call to that place. My in-laws went there and hated it. Their next mission will be more rewarding- they are heading to Polynesia.

I'm curious why you selected Napa Valley instead of say, Alsace France?

That would be fine, although I do prefer domestic (French wines are overrated). South Africa (they have some great wines) would also be OK (and you said missionaries are needed there?).

Taking the wife would be lovely. I don't think I'm up for it if I have to pay my own way, though. I might just as well plan my own vacation and avoid all that door knocking and trying to sell a product I don't believe in, myself.

I wished I'd have had the presence of mind when I was reaching 19 that you have now, Quasi. I like the way you think.
