    It's Clarence Oveur. Over.

    Ted, that made me laugh loud enough to get a few looks.

      #10 Did you command Peter to betray you or just prophesy that he would?

      And it came to pass that StarCraft II Wings of Liberty was released in 2010 and behold, it was good. And the seed of the Zerg did fight against the seed of the Protoss and the seed of the Terrans. And they did war one with another. And it came to pass that StarCraft II Heart of the Swarm was released in 2013. And behold, it was also good. But not good enough to justify its relatively hefty price tag.

        Cabin Boy is both funny and teaches important life lessons. If you cannot see the humor and universal truth in Nathaniel's journey from fancy lad to fisherman, that is your problem.

        Cabin Boy is proof that God loves us.

          Cabin Boy is to proof that God loves us as Angolan petroleum exports are to proof that Jimmy Hoffa's buried in the Meadowlands.

              Only if you can convince them that someone hacked your Cougarstadium login and posted all sorts of bullshit in your name.

                Speaking of the whole new name thing, what happens if by chance you forget it. I haven't, but then again, I'm pretty special. I thought I heard once that if you forget it, you can ask someone at the temple and as long as you know the day that you were endowed, they can look it up. So that begs the question, does the guy that gives it to you go and write it down where it gets submitted into the archives? But why then would you need to know the day you were endowed? The cynic in me thinks that they just rotate through new names and everyone that gets endowed on the same day gets the same name. Thus the hush hush.

                  It's common knowledge that people in the same session have the same name. I just dislike that I know my wife's, but I can't tell her mine. But, mine is that of a schlep, so it's probably best that I'm not associated with someone whose example from the scriptures we shouldn't follow.

                    There's a website for that. It works for most names but probably not all. It might be offensive and to some CUFers and it's most certainly not church sponsored so I won't post a link here. The proper google search can reveal its identity though. It works because of Waup stated in his comment.

                      I thought it was common knowledge that they use the same name for everyone during each particular day. No?

                        I guess that's what I get for being too nervous to ever talk about it. But it's nice to know that the one of the most special and treasured experiences of my mortal existence is a result of some arbitrary date selection. Mysterious ways, indeed.

                          One thing to be sure about temple worship and the literal/symbolic wrestlemania that lies therein: only take things literally if it makes the church look more ridiculous by doing so.

                            My name is also that of a schlep. For the longest time I wondered if it was a sign of the way God felt about me. Why wasn't my name John or Peter or Nephi?

                              The church will also supply the name to you on the same basis if you ask them nicely.

                                I figured it out initially the third time my wife went to the temple on our anniversary and received the same names.
