Beloved Board Games
One girl in the ward was extremely gullible. She read this flyer, then asked me, "Is that true?" Later on we were on a trip to the Manti temple - we drove right past the temple - it's extremely obvious to stop - big building way up on a hill - then we stopped at a bakery. As we got out, one of us joked, "Do you know where the temple's at? We couldn't find it." "Really? Are you joking?" Great girl honestly - have to love those sorts :)

Okay folks, time has come once more for the ritual of the weekly activity!! This week’s activity features games. “What sort of games?” I hear you say. “You must have forgotten to read the title up above,” I reply. “↑Look up there↑” Yes, we will be playing all sorts of beloved board games. Usually board games are games that involve boards with playing pieces on top. However, as with all language, the meaning of “board game” has evolved over time to include any small game that can be played indoors with relatively little damage done to the room in which it is played. Damage inflicted usually occurs when the winner completely crushes and destroys the loser. The loser, in an effort to show his joy and elation, happily destroys a wall, light-switch, or the whole board game in celebration of the winner’s victory. The complete destruction of the game only occurs when the victory is so glorious, that it would be considered an insult to the winner for anyone to play on the board which was the setting for such a magnificent competition. I myself have not been the winner during one of these victory celebration rituals, but I have been the loser many a time. Once I was playing chess, and the winner played such a brilliant game that I was beaten in seven moves. I was so overcome by my feelings of joy for my opponent’s winning game that I destroyed his couch, TV, VCR, and then tore the victor’s shirt right off his body.
When I mentioned the above story to the people in charge of the activity, they wanted to discourage such celebrations. They mentioned words like “inappropriate” “out of control” “outrageous” and “immature”. So my guess is that such celebrations of victory committed by the loser on behalf of the winner might be looked down upon by those (Rachel Call) who are in charge. I also suspect the apartment manager won’t be too thrilled. So please refrain from celebrations in such a spirited manner. Now that you have been warned, please come enjoy yourself at the activity!!
