I didn’t even get invited.

Are you a family history consultant like I am?

The most recent Ancestry update eliminated the "< 1% West African " element I had enjoyed previously. I'm now pretty much as white as it gets: 94% British isles and 6% Norwegian.

A coworker of mine, to an outward observer as white as white can be, said that his report showed a distinct percentage of Sub-Saharan African. He initially presented this to his family for the humor of it, as anybody looking at him would realize it was clearly incorrect. This prompted his mother to let slip the shameful family secret: they did, indeed, have distant black ancestry. She was old enough that it was still to her a shameful thing. For the coworker, her humiliation made it even funnier.

Hope you use plenty of sunscreen.

That's the funny thing. The Iberian peninsula made sense because I do have more olive toned skin and tan really well. Well, made sense outside of actual genealogy research where my lines all come from the British Isles or Scandanavia/Germany.

I've been using the link from Tools to FamilySearch to print up a name to take to the temple. But I see the one I used last time is still there to print--it even reminds me that I've printed it before. I assume this means the temple I took it to didn't process it? Is there someone I should call or just take the same name a second time?

Is it the same ordinance or is the name there but for a different ordinance (eg a sealing)

Yes, same ordinance.

Yes, same ordinance.

It's entirely possible that this is a function of me getting old so I'm just going to reprint and go with it.

Right on. If you do the same guy twice it doubles the chance that he’ll accept the ordinance in the spirit world!
