| Cookies are fungal growth that taste grainy, because they ejaculated rainbows extravagantly on xeogaming during preparations for rectal seepage felching while standing on fifty llamas flying over Score's bonus dishwasher. Score nasally protested Indonesian involvement anywhere should Kyrgyzstan decide, democratically, if Obama will poop daintily on Congressional bickering regarding Ninjas castrating Australopithecan children with rusty cheese-graters or if Xeo will cry urine diamonds from above his vaginal herpes onto Pakistani ambassadors. Kyrgyzstan officials ruled neither Cookies nor Obama African-American Jones could nuzzle Indonesians; however, Xeo didn't like fornicating loudly because Pakistani nudists bitch about his microscopic phallus flailing frantically in the face of adversity and this monkey. Xeo's decision to refuse tits pictures displeased Xeogaming so much, Score cleaved shit in honor of France's raping of him. Ironically, France defecated cookies, making shit for magical. This thread fucking pwns dolphins!

| That is a pretty interesting way to eat things. My fiance just kinda mixes most things up into a failure pile before he eats them.
Me... I bite my lower lip when I am board... kinda bad in cold weather because I get really bad chapped lips that way. I also do this squeeky meow thing when I yawn. |

| I carved a pumpkin, am wearing a witch hat, and passing out candy. It's kinda awesome... shame that it is cold and rainy though.
... and in a few hours I get to go to work. In the hat. |

| Hey everyone,
So I figure that it's been a little while since my last group e-mail, and, surprise surprise, it comes before I get and e-mail from my family reminding me to do it! First off, for those wondering, yes, I'm still in Rocklin until August 30th, at which point it's pretty much a guarantee that I'll get transferred. Still a chance I'll stay a little more, but staying in one area for even as long as I have is pretty much unheard of. It was kind of interesting though, because having been here so long, I was look at all the people in sacrament meeting, and I realized that there were only two families who I didn't know. That usually means it's time for a missionary to move on, xD. This last week has also been a great week. First off, we found a new investigator, Elaine, who was very excited to meet with us. We were biking by and saw that she was trying to lift a TV stand into her truck. It was pretty obvious she wasn't going to be able to do it, so we pulled up and offered to help her out. So we got talking (after putting the TV stand in the truck for her, of course), and she seemed very interested in hearing about our message. She was soaking up pretty much everything we had to say, and invited us to come back. So, next lesson, we taught her about the Book of Mormon, what it was, and how you can really only find an answer as to whether or not it's true by praying to Heavenly Father and asking Him what he wants. She seemed to really like that, and really enjoyed everything that we had to say. Next lesson we're actually hoping to bring in Mikki, who was just baptized last year, and has been struggling for the past few months because her husband is very against the Mormon church and everythign that we do. So we were thinking that she would really enjoy having the opportunity to share how she came to know that the church was true, what inspired her to join, etc etc. I really think that this next lesson will be awesome for everyone all around. Something else awesome is that Jonathan Lynn, who I helped to teach and baptize back in June, in going to be speaking in Stake Conference later this month. For those who don't know, Stake Conference is a big meeting where all the congregations in an area meet together, which basically means that in this area, there will be six congregations of about 200-300 people each. Needless to say, Jonathan is way nervous, but he's also excited, so I think that it'll be awesome. So, basically what I'm saying is that life around here is going great. We have a lot of awesome people to teach, a lot of people that are very interested, and a lot of good work to do. We're hopign to commit one lady to baptism this week. She knows that the Book of Mormon is true, knows that this church is true, and really wants to be a part of it, but her husband, Steve, has in the past told her that she couldn't be baptized into our church, and she won't go agaisnt his wishes. However, he's been meeting with us a lot recently, read a lot of the Book of Mormon, and seems to agree with a lot of what we believe. What we're hoping is that he's progressed enough that if we ask him beforehand, he'll be willing to let his wife be baptized. With all this going, however, a missionary often gets bored, because even with so many good people to teach, we spend a lot of time biking around. So, I've gotten itno the habit of racing other bikers that I see. It's usually pretty fun, but it's interesting going against those bikers taht have all the fancy spandex, road bikes, mirrors on their helmets, special handlebars so that they can be crazy aerodynamic, etc etc. These guys can sometimes go faster than me uphill without even pedaling, so it's pretty crazy. Last week thoguh I got chasing after one biker for about twenty minutes, finally pulling ahead of him for the last half-mile before we hit an intersection and went our seperate ways. I sometimes wonder how many of them even know that I'm chasing after them... Anyway though, I've gotta go, but I'll see you all next time! Love, Vulkar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hey everyone, So, I finally got transferred out of Rocklin! Not that I didn't like Rocklin, believe me, I loved it, and I'll be sad to leave it. It was a great area, the members were all super awesome, and I had a really great time there. And really, I left in pretty much the perfect way. The night before I got transferred there was a Stake Fireside where several of the recent converts got up to speak and talk about their conversion stories. So, Jonathan Lynn got called up to speak, talk about what happenned with him, and how the church has effected his life. He gave a really awesome talk, explaining how much the ward helped him and how glad he was to be a member of the church now. But the biggest highlight? He said that he really wants o go on a mission when he's old enough. Yeah, pretty much all excitement. Also, I'm going to have to apologize to my family for having already heard this story, but really, it's gotta be shared. So friday night before the firside, we were biking home late. We biked past a graveyard, and Elder Vernon, as usual asked me if we could go in. He wasn't serious, but he just likes the creepiness of graveyards at night. I told him no-there were no trespassing signs all over. So we bike past, and Elder Vernon's bike light was blinking, as it always does. He has it like that so that cars can better notice him. Keep in mind that his light is pretty much as bright as a car's headlights. We go down a dark road. And by dark, I mean black. I tell him to make it so that his light stopped blinking so that we could both see better. He declines. We see two men standing in the street. Elder Vernon's lights reflect off their bright eyes. They move out of our way, but as we go past, we hear one of the whisper quietly, yet confidently, "Hail Satan." We hear this yelled at us all the time, but it struck us this time. It was different. We looked back to see them just staring at us, unblinking. We shrug it off. Elder Vernon's flickering light catches a reflection ahead of us. We couldn't see what it was, so he turns it on full so that we could see what was ahead of us. A man, staring at us, snarling, was standing in the middle of the road. Almost like a lion, ready to catch it's pray. It was too late. We couldn't stop, we were going to fast. We couldn't turn around, there were men behind us as well. Elder Vernon charge forward first, dodging to the side, and narrowly avoiding this man's kick. My turn. I followed. The man's foot still in the air, biking as quick as I could, narrowly avoiding him. We go on, but as we go, we hear his frustrated cry. "Mormons...mormons!" Almost more like a whine than a cry. We go on, and locked our doors that night. That story sounds a lot more dramatic if I don't mention that this guy was drunk, barely able to keep standing, and gave probably the lamest kick I'd ever seen. But hey, we were still creeped out at the time. New area: I am now in Yuba City, covering the Sutter Buttes ward, as well as the town of Sutter, which, surprise surprise, is next to the Sutter Buttes, which according to a couple of members is the smallest mountain range in the United States. So our ward boundaries are huge, and I'm still on a bike (which is going to be awesome about a month from now when it cools down). We also live in the nicest house in the mission now. And when I say nice, I mean freaking awesome. Some members gutted a house completely and rebuilt it for missionaries to live in. So basically right now, our office is about as big as my entire apartment in my last area. Maybe even bigger. Which I guess really isn't saying much, since where we lived before only had about one room with barely enough room for our desks and bed. Oh yeah, and our new address is... 1397 Butte House rd Yuba Ca, 95993 The only downside is that we don't have a stove, some my diet is now going to consist of a lot more sandwiches and yoghurt, and a lot less noodles. Sad, but more than a a good trade for having a decently sized place to live in. The people: Yuba actually has a very interesting culture. Most of the people here are poorer, and there's a lot more crime in this area, so we're being careful to go in by dark. no mother/other people who are concerned but not as much as she will be, it's not that bad at all. The biggest problem is that a lot of people have gotten into drugs and such. We also have a very large indian population. It's kind of interesting, because just as part of the culture, the Indian population doesn't speak to the caucasian population, nor do the Hispanics speak to anyone who isn't hispanic. But hey, we got missionaries to cross those lines, right? Other stuff: I was a ssigned as district leader, which really actually isn't as big of a deal as some people assume. Most missionaries are a district leader at some point in the mission. But it is a great opportunity to serve in a way I have not served before, seeking to help the other missionaries as best as I can-working hard to make the whole area strong rather than just my own. no idea how I'll do, but I hope to be able to help the other missionaries in this position. So yeah, this is my life now. Awesome area, awesome people to serve around, and I now have an awesome place to live. Thing is though, I can't get a real library card to use the computers until I have a piece of mail to prove where I live now, so feel free to write something awesome. :-D I'll see you all later! Love, Elder Tigges -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hey everyone! So, maybe I've gotten a little better at the whole group e-mail thing. I tihkn it's only been like, a month since my last one! Anyway though, these past few weeks have been probably some of the craziest on my mission. I was companions with Elder Tervort for about three weeks, until at around the beginning of week two he came to me and admitted that he had severe clinical depression, which is to say, more than just feeling down, but rather, he was unable to sleep for more than two hours a night, had no will to eat, and in general was shutting down. So, he talked with the Mission President, talked with a couple of psychiatrists and is now home. Pretty crazy. Next companion was Elder Harvey, who had been able two minutes away from being sent home before he got to me. He was emergency transferred out of his last area for near-criminal behavior (shooting his companion over fifty times with an airsoft gun), and was basically a very interesting guy to be around. Oh yeah, and he hated to do work, so pushing him to even go to appointments was a lot of effort. So president sent him to live with the APs, companions with probably the most obedient missionary in the mission-coincedentally my MTC companion Elder Honeycutt. But now my companion is Elder Rakuita, and he is far more awesome. He's from Fiji, and is a lot of fun to be around. He kind of had a darker past (was a DJ, partier, and may or may not have been in gangs) but has completely changed his life around. He's told me repeatedly how much he'd do almost anything to make sure that the work moves forward, and recognizes, as I do, who much potential our ward has to be awesome. Plus, he's got some crazy sense of humor, which always seems to help things. On to our investigators! We got a call about three weeks ago from Brother Durling, who was the High Priest's Group Leader in Oroville. He called to let us know that he was visiting someone who was in jail, teaching him about the Gospel. This someone, Chris, really came to know that it is all true, and realy has a desire to turn his life around. So Brother Durling sent us to go talk to Chris's wife who lives in our ward. Good stuff. So we go over, and she basically says that since Chris decided he wanted to be a Mormon, she does too. She also really wants to go to church, read, etc etc. Only problem is that she is seriously addicted to alcohol. A few weeks later, and Chris gets out of jail. We go over and, well, let's just say taht it's clear that he has a drinking problem too. He may have been completely wasted, and may or may not have invited us to spend the night if we want. While we already had a place to stay, his offer to let us sleep on the couch was generous. We still have a lot of work to do with the ward members themselves. While they are all pretty cool, there's almost no trust with the leadership, thanks to a few missionaries before us. The ward missionaries also almost never are in contact with us at this point, and our ward mission leader only talks to us for about half an hour a week to report to ward council our efforts. However, we are really building on the trust of our bishop and Ward Mission Leader, showing them how much work we are capable of doing, and really asking for help getting members to come with us to our appointments. They recognize what needs to happen, I feel, so if we just show them that we're worth the effort, and that good things will come of it, things will be great. Still though, a huge change from Rocklin, where we were given the member's record numbers even, if we wanted them. Anyway though, gotta get going, but I'll see you all later! Love, Vulkar (Last edited by Elara on 11-01-11 07:58 PM) |

| Well, the difference between shows like The Tudors and Game of Thrones is that the later is a true fantasy setting... Westeros is not a part of Earth. However, Martin was heavily inspired by actual medieval history, and so you really do get to see the dank and dreary side of that period as opposed to the Medieval Times version.
About the spoilers... yeah, I totally agree. |

Those lines were often said during gaming sessions back in Long Beach for various reasons. |

| I actually love the word Persnickety... I wouldn't say it sounds evil per se, but it sounds so much more awesome than just saying "picky"
So I watched that video... and I really want to kill Tyra Banks now. I'm also gaining a ever-growing hatred for the regional dialect here. It's "Carn-e-gee" not "Car-neg-ee"! "Re-sez" not "ree-sees" and "keil-basa" not "keil-bossy"! I even hate the way they say "pop"... and I am used to people calling soda that because of my mom's family. |
