      Nobody just wants to sit on the sideline and watch though. Dive in and enjoy.

          Quite a few of the early ones were. (Including some of my ancestors.) They liked the relatively free-thinking approach of Mormonism and Joseph Smith, which was pretty radical at the time. Quakers have always been into freedom of conscience in a big way.

            Watch what? This is worthless without pictures.

            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.

              They're not likely to let you take those either.
              Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                  .... that might make both the watching and the picture taking possible. But alas, also raises the possibility of jail time.

                      You have experience with such matters? This makes the Topper wonder how somebody with a no meat diet gets involved in such things.

                          Your third-person shtick is falling down a bit. You should have said "The Topper wonders if you have experience with such matters", etc.

                            But the Topper doesn't wonder that, the Topper merely posed the question.

                              If you were a 3rd person pro, you'd drop the "the" and go with "Topper".

                              Out of curiosity, are you a Utah grad?
