    Having $1B on paper is one thing. Having it liquid is another.

    I truly hope Clack makes $1B or more. If he does, he can expect to see NWC's fellow progressives come a-knockin' on his door.

Clack, in effect, is leading with his chin here, willing to accept the good-natured joshing that will ensue if it fails, but showing a kind of Ruthian boldness in calling his shot, even though he may whiff. Clack, I sincerely wish you great success, and not just because you'll have to pick up the tab when/if we ever tee it up together. But if you fail, I still tip my cap to you for your intrepid spirit, which I lack.
          PAC - you made me tear up. That's the nicest thing anybody has ever said about me.

          intrepid spirit lives.

            Did clack ever say in what dimension he is going to be a billionaire? I’m pretty sure I’m a billionaire in some dimension, somewhere.

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

              I'm probably not a billionaire anywhere but I'm sure I'm homeless in several dimensions.

                So you are a Twin Falls Bruin. Gary Puckett attended high school in Twin Falls and Paul Revere was from Boise, something about being in Idaho, for some reason, made these two bands dress up in Civil War uniforms. Good luck Clack, I hope it goes well.

                    What in the literal hell is in the water in Idaho? Lori Vallow / Daybell back in the news. This time, she was apparently watching a motion hearing for Chad, and her Idaho Department of Health and Welfare clinician gave her the number of church HQ and gave her "homework" to call to try and get her court-appointed attorney replaced. She claims she had an extensive conversation with a partner at Kirkton McConkie. [BS alert. Ain't no partner got time for rando phone calls.] She also claims what she told him got reported to the prosecuting attorney.

                    A recent motion filed by the court-appointed lawyer for Lori Daybell—who is charged in Idaho with first-degree murder in the deaths of her children and has been found not fit to stand trial—claims she had a phone conversation with one of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' outside counsel, who advised they could help, but instead shared what she said with the prosecuting attorney.

                        If that rando's call can be associated with a client-matter number, that partner will have all the time in the world for that call.

                          Especially if the call was routed from the COB receptionist to KM.

                            A friend's son's mission companion was shot in a stake center in Birmingham, AL on Friday evening.

                            Crazy stuff. There appears to be no rhyme nor reason.

                              My wife was telling me about this. Sounds like he is going to make it but they are hoping to restore function to one arm or something like that. Super sad and scary situation. Glad he is relatively ok.

                                Very sad. We were in the victims ward for a couple years. I was a nursery worker and he was a handful. He comes from a great family.
