Name that Movie Character!

To make this game fun, read the quotes in order and then use the comments to share how quickly you got it. I tried to order the quotes with the most difficult ones first. Good luck. Movie Character Quotes 1. "At my age, I'm prepared to take a few things on faith.." 2. Person 1: "Genius of the Res-to-ration" [finishes a secret handshake] Person 2 (our character of interest): "-- aid our own resuscitation!" 3. "Water? No thank you. No, fish make love in it." 4. Person1: "Good God!" Person 2 (our character of interest): "Yes, that's what the Hebrews thought." 5. "My reputation precedes me." 6. "How does one get off this thing?" 7. "Is there anyone here who speaks English? Or maybe even ancient Greek?" 8. "You're meddling with powers you cannot possibly comprehend." 9. "I'd rather spit in your face. But as I haven't got any spit..."

Seriously, So Blessed: This Blog is pro!

Satirically witty and Mormon , this new, anonymous blog writer has already captured my heart and has become a regular read for me. In fact, she is the only non-family-link in my own blog. I hope you enjoy her humor as much as I do. I found out that she was recently interviewed on KSL.com. HERE is another newsclip about her. Another fun, but more subtle LDS blog is CougarMolly . She hasn't written in a couple of years but she covers most of the Mormon Cliches. ---------------- Listening to: Raphael Saadiq - Sure Hope You Mean It

A Fun Monticello Reunion at the BYU Football Game

It's been like two years since I've been to a football game. My sports-a-holic roommate, Aaron, left Provo for the weekend to spend his weekend with the family in South SLC. He was kind enough to leave me his ticket. A fortunate wrinkle in fate made my assigned seat only a couple of rows below 30 of my old friends from Monticello. It was so fun to enjoy the game with them. Julie happened to buy tickets with them because she is best friends with Janeen from Monticello. The guy in blue is named Andrew and he always salutes me when we see each other because of the time we spent together last year watching Band of Brothers. I assigned everyone that watched with us a name and rank in the army. Andrew was an "Intelligence Officer" so our conversations always include subtle, coded messages about make-believe protocols. This is only one of two pictures that I have of my old roommate Hunter. I told everyone to growl like a cougar. I think it represent us well.

Revenge of the Earwarmers: THEY'RE BACK (EERIE TONE)

Dad came to town last week and he and Stef and I enjoyed a lovely show at the dinner theater: The Dessert Star. We watched "Scary Poppins" (Mary's evil twin sister). It was a highly entertaining, Branson-style musical with plenty of pop-culture references. What made it even more fun was that we were able to share the experience with G&G, Ed & Val and their kids. My favorite part was when one of the actors came out in the South Pacific coconut bra and skirt and shook it in front of Grandma. I was too busy whistling to notice Grandma's repulsed body language; Stef said it was priceless. After the show, we all gathered at G&G's for ice cream and fresh peaches! DElicIOuS!!! The crowning moment of the evening was when Stef opened her Mom's gift basket from WA: I hope Heather and Noelle (and even their husbands recognize these bad boys, because I sure do! When Stef pulled them out of the bag, I heard "Psycho" music as my eyes zoomed inc

Backpacking with Myself

I recently purchased a tent at Out'n'Back for only $15! I decided that I would try it out Thursday night. I strapped the tent and my sleeping pad to my Camelbak and took off up the Y for my favorite spot behind the mountain. (Don't worry, Mom. I told all my roommates my travel plan and when they could expect me back. I even had cell reception the whole time.) I set up camp in a valley where a fire pit was already built. My fire-building attempts where thwarted after 2 hours of painfully making kindling out of wood that I discovered around 1:00am to be nonburnable . The good thing about my fire failure was that it kept me busy during the cold hours of the night. The remainder of the night was less-fortunate for me. In fact, it was a heap of restless discomfort! (I now feel you, Mama.) The tent was supposedly "7x7'" but it turned out to be more like 5'11"x5'11". I repositioned my slim sleeping mat all night long from one diagonal ang
