Today I had the largest piece of sacrament bread I think I have ever had. It was a little less than a 1/4 of a piece of bread. I had to stuff it in to my mouth like it was a handful of popcorn. It needed some butter and maybe some jam. That's it, toasted with butter, and a small cup of jam on the tray with a spreading knife. Perfect!
We got a new bishopric and today it was our new bishop's first day conducting. He did a good job, but his face got a little bit more red every time he stood up to talk. I felt bad for the guy but like I said, he did great. My all time favorite nervous church leader story was when Aaron was sustaining somebody and changed the order for the sustaining vote and asked for "those opposed" first, which apparently everybody did. People were literally ROFLing between the pews.
We watched a movie outside on our INFLATABLE MOVIE SCREEN tonight. It was pretty cool, both temperatically and expressionally. We watched Pirates of the Caribbean staring Johnny Depp. It is an action packed thriller where Johnny Depp plays the part of Jack Sparrow, a pirate captain without a ship. He is the worst pirate, then the best pirate and then the worst pirate some people have ever heard of. He spends the movie in pursuit of some African-American pearl (Using 'black' is offensive to some people) he lost and winds up getting cursed by Aztec gold. It all works out in the end though when he gets saved by an African-American smith (still not saying 'black') and he finds his African-American pearl (FYI, saying 'black' in quotes doesn't count). I think I dozed off a few times but I caught the gist of it I think. ;-)
That is a very good question...I will have to think on it. For the record I did NOT vote to call people "African Americans". If I would have been alowed to vote I probably would have selected something less specific like "Not-So-Native Americans". :-)
