    Knock it off. This board has enough problems without a dose of middle-age lechery.

        Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss

        There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

          I know that they are basically the same people but if you switched Carol Mikita for Nadine Wimmer then Triplet wouldn't get in an argument with Sister Buzzkill about watching all four sessions.

                Really need some diversity. Joseph Sitati, Claudio Costa, and Michael Teh.

                I'm not one to go diverse for diversity's sake, but having apostles that represented members of the church not originally from Utah or Idaho would be nice.

                If I were learning about the Church and I were from Africa I'd be happy to see a leader who looked like me.

                  Didn't clay Christensen have a stroke? I think he's unlikely to get the call.

                    I think WRW is emeritus so I doubt he gets the call.
                    "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

                      I'm going with a new twist: honorary empty seat for Helvecio Martins.

                        President Monson may not speak during the Saturday general sessions.

                          Doh, I guess that's why no one else mentioned him...

                            Good to see President Monson come around to my view of Saturday conference.

                              You can stop guessing:

                              Brian Regen
                              Jim Gaffigan

                                For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                                Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."
