      Went to grocery store with 7 year-old son, who wants to push cart. Boy takes off running with cart on an intercept trajectory with Hank Eyring's cart. Had to run to catch up and save apostle's life. Hank likes Ritz.

        Hate to break it to you, but if it was Elder Eyring's time to go the Lord would have taken him. Your son and his cart pushing would have had no influence on the life of an apostle.

          An enterprising ice cream shop in Utah could have a field day with a TK smoothie flavor.

              Was at company picnic in the park when Dieter and Harriet walk by at a brisk pace wearing Adidas track suits. Dieter is not as tall as I imagined.

Some old dude in a Crown Vic was going 63 in the fast lane. When he finally switched lanes, I decided to tell the man he was #1 as we passed. I stuck out my hand and made brief eye contact before my arm retreating back into the car in record time/fashion.

                Other than that, I saw Henry B. in the SLC Airport. We made eye contact. I think he saw the look of surprise on my face, because he turned his back and faced a wall while finishing his conversation and remained in that position until our baggage came out on the coveyor.

                  If M. Russ was driving, I'm afraid of who was in the back seat that you also flipped off...
                  I told him he was a goddamn Nazi Stormtrooper.

                    My sister lived in the same building has Elder Haight for several years. She ran into him fairly regularly in the lobby where he'd ask her for a ride from her on multiple occasions since his "wife had left [him] behind."

                    Before I got married, my fiance and I attended BKP's home ward. He'd show up once a month or so. I once ran into him and his "friend" in the hallway. He was surprisingly just about as short as I expected him to be.

                      Seconded. Met him on my mission. He's a short, round, nuclear engineer of man.

                        I turned a corner coming out of the men's room in the old provo tabernacle at a J. Reuben Clark graduation and about ran into Dallin Oaks. We then had to do that awkward do-si-do in the narrow hallway to get past each other.

                          That has to be a joke.

                            Wish it was. He was seriously freaked over reffing a game Elder Anderson's grandson was in.

                            A detail I left out is that he was home from his mission less than 6 months. Not sure if that played a roll in it.

                            But all he could talk about prior to the game and during breaks was not messing up, and Elder A would know if he did. Now I'm starting to wonder if he took money to throw the game for one of the teams, and that was what he was worried Elder A would discover. Hmmmmm.

                              Did he come to bail you out of a Peruvian jail? He came to my mission to bail out a zone. Apparently he speaks flawless Spanish.

                                I don't know about now, but a little over 25 years ago his Spanish was pretty good at a mission-wide conference he spoke at in Guate.
