I have no idea whether this was the right call or not. The more certain someone is on the issue the less convincing I find them. What I do know is that Senator Mike Lee reminds me of an angry scout leader. Like the one at Camp Maple Dell that threatened to send our troop home after we threw a can of aqua net in the fire. Like I get where he's coming from, but he's such an earnest twerp that I can't really listen to him and reflexively disagree with whatever he's saying.

Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
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."

We just used bug spray. Already bringing it so we didn't have to increase our packing weight. Actually now that I think about it, we used bug spray as flame-throwers per creek's comment. For throwing stuff in the fire, I remember putting pop cans in upside-down as the coolest thing. Next up was an unopened can of peas, which burned dozens of small holes through a few of the tents. Both the pop and peas were on the packing list so we didn't have to bring anything special. We made do with what we had.Originally posted by myboynoah View PostIt's like he was never a scout.Last edited by Lost Student; 01-08-2020, 05:48 PM."Seriously, is there a bigger high on the whole face of the earth than eating a salad?"--SeattleUte

My faith is restored. So sad that there is no guarantee that future generations of Mormon youth will take part in these life-defining experiences.Originally posted by Lost Student View PostWe just used bug spray.

But at least they won’t have to deal with professional scouts who bear resemblance to Mike Lee. Worth it. And also follow the prophet.Originally posted by myboynoah View PostMy faith is restored.

The exploding can of peas was actually quite memorable. Pretty good lesson on the ideal gas law. Maybe it set me on the path that led to studying ChemE in college.Originally posted by myboynoah View PostMy faith is restored.

Doesn't this stem from his anachronistic literalist view of the Constitution.

Yes, exactly.Originally posted by SeattleUte View PostDoesn't this stem from his anachronistic literalist view of the Constitution. The president hasn't had to ask permission from the Senate before a discrete attack for decades.
As he went on and on about the ineptitude of the briefers, I kept thinking, "Well, the rot starts at the top, dope." So funny that he's going to run to Trump to let him know what is going on, as if that is going to resolve whatever problems he sees. As if Trump is going to defer at all to these two dumbo senators. Yet they are Trump Men through and through.Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

On my mission we used to cook cockroaches with hairspray and a lighterOriginally posted by creekster View PostOr with a lighter it can be a pretty impressive flame thrower.

As far as I know, Mike Lee is still set to be one of Trump's campaign chairs in Utah.Originally posted by myboynoah View PostYes, exactly.
