About Me
- Arie Van De Graaff
- Since 2009, I've posted silly little gags to this website twice a week. My work has been featured in the New Era, For the Strength of the Youth, and The Friend (for some reason, I have yet to crack the Liahona). Between 2014 and 2016, my comic strip Mission Daze was featured in the Deseret News (back when newspapers were still a thing). I've published a plethora of activity books (links for which you can find on this page). Please stay a while and enjoy.
Comments, complaints, or questions? Feel free to email me.

This totally happened in our stake conference Saturday night session. The speaker was a doctor who was on call. He thought he'd be safe for the ten minutes he was supposed to speak, but about two minutes in his phone went off. He turned from the microphone and took the message and then finished his talk.
ReplyDeleteI think we can be at least a little forgiving of people who might well be getting actual emergencies. :)
DeleteI remember one time hearing about someone's phone ringing in the sealing room at the Temple (why they even HAD their phone in there is beyond me), and the sealer snapping "tell them we're busy!" Totally on the sealer's side on that one.
Those doctors are always being pestered by their accountants and golfing buddies.
ReplyDeleteI love the expressions on the guys behind him.
ReplyDeleteAs a teacher, I'm always telling students "Tell them you'll call back after class!"
ReplyDeleteThen of course one day my husband called when I was teaching. I explained to the class that he'd gone to a job interview so was calling when he got the chance, and they shouted "Good Luck, Alex!" in perfect unison at him.
