For nearly ten years on this blog I've had to deal with change after change after change in the Church which has resulted in a back catalog of gags and jokes becoming obsolete. Shoot, the very name of the blog is out of date now. It's an exciting time to be a Latter-day Saint, but it does make keeping a site that gently pokes fun at the
Mormon Latter-day Saint culture difficult.
Today's gag represents a potential shift in my strategy for dealing with change. I just need to anticipate what changes the Church is going to make before it makes them. No problem, right? I mean we do believe in revelation after all.
How about you? Any guesses as to what, if any, big announcements are coming this weekend at General Conference?

Here's something that I personally don't think I'll see changing any time soon: those spiky walls in our meetinghouses (except maybe its color; I've been told that back in the day the carpets in my ward's meetinghouse were burnt orange instead of the blue that they are now. Until some number of years ago when the pews were replaced, one of them still had a hymnal shelf lined with that carpet, which was all I ever got to see of it)

ReplyDeleteUm, I've seen one in which the Two-Hour Block is the Free Space...I don't know how to react...

I am guessing that there will be some announcement regarding the service missionary program that has been piloted in some nine areas for the past few years.
ReplyDeleteThe 2-hour block happened. It actually happened.
