While the world was mildly coming to an end outside (translation: a little bit of thunder and lightning), I was watching the PBS special on the Mormons which has been running for the last couple days and I heard one of the Mormon bigwigs (I think he’s a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles or something) was talking about how the Mormons were SOOOOOOO persecuted and no other group has ever seen as much persecution in this country as they had. (Apparently this person hasn’t heard of slavery and Jim Crow laws.) OK… I know Mormons are big on their Church History but they seem to be ignoring the first 300 years of Christianity in the Roman Empire. (Do those years not apply to them?)\u00c2?

\nMy in-laws gave me a HUGE gift certificate from THE BESTEST CLOTHING SITE IN THE WORLD (a.k.a. Lands’ End<\/a>) so I devoured the latest Lands’ End<\/a> catalog while I was waiting for the lightning to go away (so I could plug my modem back in).\u00c2? I found some stuff that I can use to look nice and professional (at least until I can learn to sew and make my own wannabe-professional suits) as well as some cropped pants so I can have cool stuff to wear during the summer.<\/p>\n
