    To outsiders you are indistinguishable. The Topper likes the I am Mormon commercials. They are rad.

    Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

      But Mormons girls are reason to be interested.
      So, just like everyone else.

      Stop talking in the third person.
      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

      Dig your own grave, and save!

        Don't worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any good, you'll have to ram them down people's throats.

            "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

                And while you are at it, stop pretending you aren't LDS.

                    Are you suggesting that The Topper is LDS?!? Next thing you're going to tell me is that he isn't from South Carolina.

                      I've also met people who confuse Mormons with Quakers. Pretty tight analogy, that.

                          The Mormons are a nasty bunch, but the Topper views third person as better than two persons in most activities.

                            You're not going to find many Mormon girls that are going to let you watch. Sorry.
