In honor of the season – winter, not Christmas: “
Calvin and Hobbes Snow Art Gallery” ( http://www.angelfire.com/wa/zzaran/calvin.html )The funniest product review I have read. Had me in tears, I was laughing so hard.

I can’t believe people would write so much about Haribo sweets.
Maoam, on the other hand…
Those Germans!!!
My 15-year-old daughter said the following in a conversation our family (she, two parents, one older son and one younger daughter right now) was having yesterday, after I asked for suggestions: Quote:My uterus is exploding inside me right now, so I think my opinion ought to count twice if it comes to a vote.
This is the same daughter who told us that her period was best described as “communists (the red army) in the fun house” and “Satan’s sacrificial waterfall”.
Yeah, my house is different than my parents’ house growing up.
😳 :silent: At a job interview: I: What are some of the personal qualities you think makes you suit this job?
A: I’m an optimist and a positive thinker.
I: Well, that’s very good. Can you give us an example?
A: Yes. When do I start?
My girlfriend is worried that the church is a bit politically extreme. I guess it’s something to do with me texting her about our SS meeting every week. Hopefully this hasn’t already been posted, I haven’t read through the whole thread. I heard a story from Rober Kirby about being a cop in Brigham City, Utah. He pulled over a man for speeding. The man gave him his liscence, registration, and temple recommend. Officer Kirby took it back to his car, wrote the man a ticket and checked his registration info. He finally returned to the man’s car, gave him his documents, and a temple recommend with the word “VOID” written across the front
Oh, and here’s a goodie, from LDS.org itself, the parable of the “Little Factory:” Quote:This power of creation affects your life several years before you should express it fully. You must always guard the power with manly wisdom. You must wait until the time of your marriage to use it.
During that waiting, what do you do with these desires? My boy, you are to control them. You are forbidden to use them now in order that you may use them with worthiness and virtue and fulness of joy at the proper time in life.
I wish to explain something that will help you understand your young manhood and help you develop self-control. When this power begins to form, it might be likened to having a little factory in your body, one designed to produce the product that can generate life.
This little factory moves quietly into operation as a normal and expected pattern of growth and begins to produce the life-giving substance. It will do so perhaps as long as you live. It works very slowly. That is the way it should be. For the most part, unless you tamper with it, you will hardly be aware that it is working at all.
As you move closer to manhood, this little factory will sometimes produce an oversupply of this substance. The Lord has provided a way for that to be released. It will happen without any help or without any resistance from you. Perhaps, one night you will have a dream. In the course of it the release valve that controls the factory will open and release all that is excess.
The factory and automatic release work on their own schedule. The Lord intended it to be that way. It is to regulate itself. This will not happen very often. You may go a longer period of time, and there will be no need for this to occur. When it does, you should not feel guilty. It is the nature of young manhood and is part of becoming a man.
There is, however, something you should not do. Sometimes a young man does not understand. Perhaps he is encouraged by unwise or unworthy companions to tamper with that factory. He might fondle himself and open that release valve. This you should not do, for if you do that, the little factory will speed up. You will then be tempted again and again to release it. You can quickly be subjected to a habit, one that is not worthy, one that will leave you feeling depressed and feeling guilty. Resist that temptation. Do not be guilty of tampering or playing with this sacred power of creation. Keep it in reserve for the time when it can be righteously employed.
What happens when they outsource to China? You might have to go there to train your replacement on how to operate the equipment. nibbler wrote:What happens when they outsource to China? You might have to go there to train your replacement on how to operate the equipment.
Laughing Out Loud!!!
😆 Quote:I always laugh when one of my kids says they are my favorite, since I don’t particularly like any of them.
