They should really canonize the apocrypha

 I dunno, I just thought I'd write something that'd get your attention.

You'll never guess what happened this week. You could try for years and years and you'd never get it. We... (Wait for it...) ate bean sprouts. Told you you wouldn't guess.

The context of that rather odd statement is that we got a call the other morning from a member, who told us that another member in the ward was in urgent need of some service. So we went down there. Turns out this member is a 96 year old woman. We got there expecting the service project to last a half hour or less, because our other member told us all we had to do was move some furniture. Well, we showed up and immediately made us sit down and eat lunch before we could even think about doing service for her. So we ate bean sprouts, fish, dumplings and wheat buns and then went in to move the furniture. 

Turns out by furniture she meant... Somewhere around 100 paintings that she had stored in her garage that needed to be reorganized, along with a couple dozen empty canvases and some empty frames, as well. Needless to say, it took a bit more than half an hour. It was O K though. What really caught me off guard was when this 96-year-old lady came rolling up in a Mercedes. It was crazy.

Wow you know you're in bad shape when it takes you a whole hour to write that.

To save you some grief I'll cut it there. Rest assured that I'm still in a fine mental state.

So yeah, bye.


P.S. Did you know that nearly 300,000 people have heard the name Henry Wadsworth Longfellow?

P.P.S. Cheerios
