    Salutations

    This place seems nice. I don't like the UF.N format, and I don't like donating money, because I am cheap. I don't like MWCboard because I don't belong there anymore. Pac12board isn't active enough yet.

    I am a Utah fan, and I go to school there. I'm in my second year, and I'm pre-bioengineering. For a job, I do something completely unrelated and teach autistic children in a private school. It's fun. I play in a band called Dangeroos. We have music here. A stupid hobby of mine is posting on message boards when I should be doing something else with my computer, like writing papers and studying for finals.

    I've been LDS all of my life. I served my mission in Rochester, NY. My favorite experience was leaving, (both Rochester and Provo). I am very active. I will be forever.

    Will I like it here?

    Please say yes.

    Welcome and I hope you stick around.

          Soyez le bienvenu!

          Fascinating that the PAC12 isn't very active....isn't it? Maybe they are all so busy spending their $25 million per school that no one has time to post anymore.
          "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

            Welcome, MCA. This place needs more Utes for us to badger/pick-on.

                  Rochester....got any good Cumorah pageant stories? My first bible bash was when I was 16 at the Hill Cumorah pageant. I remember being challenged on the trinity, so we had a discussion that ended with a preacher screaming, "Why don't you understand this? Jesus was praying to his brain in Gethsemane!!!"

                  Best. Bash. Ever.

                    A fellow Ute fan, we can never have enough! So is the bolded statement just positive thinking or can we call you out when you miss a month of hometeaching in 2044. Welcome aboard.

                      Unfortunately no, I was there three and four pageants ago, and they had it organized in a special way that removed what was called the "gauntlet", and kept a lot of the born-again christians away at a distance not even their megaphones could overcome.

                      I spent a lot more of my time in buffalo/niagara falls, where I was lucky enough to stumble upon the grave of Rick James.

                        I don't know if you will like it here, but if you don't it is your own fault.

                          Welcome, Bro. I just got here too. I've been loving it. I think these guys are great. Obviously as a Ute fan you have a place to go, and if you want to spy on the cougs (it's the other way around for me) then that's not hard either. The only thing I can say is you might want to steer clear of the religion section if you're someone who thinks the Prophet is always right. That might be problematic
