Re: You and your prissy translations, grindael
Thanks all. I'm touched. I had a great day, I got to eat one of my favorite meals that my wife cooked up for me, Stuffed Bell Peppers. I also got word that I was accepted to present at the John Whitmer Conference in the fall, (On Emma Smith) so I was celebrating that too. I have made it to 60, which is kind of a disconcerting number for me since both my father and grandfather died at that age. But on my mother's side, they are all long lived, so I may be around for many more years to torment the hell out of all of you with my prissy translations. 
Riding on a speeding train; trapped inside a revolving door;
Lost in the riddle of a quatrain; Stuck in an elevator between floors.
One focal point in a random world can change your direction:
One step where events converge may alter your perception.

Congratulations on being accepted to present, that is terrific! Looking forward to a full report.
And yes, we fully expect you to follow your mother's side, if you don't mind, as it would be a tragedy to not have the exquisite pleasure of being "tormented" by your translations and postings, for many, many years to come!
