ANSWERS TO THE QUIZ EVEN THOUGH NO ONE REALLY CARES.

1. SAID BY......TRES, when he was small, I was driving with all the little loads feeling more frustrated than usual. It was unusually quiet in the back seats and I actually had the thought "at least the kids are being good" when out of the back came this little voice...."MA.....I HATE YOU"
He had been scolded for something maybe an hour prior, but was just then getting around to sharing his feelings.

2.SAID BY......DOS if you want to know the story ask Holly, she tells it best, but be warned there is a little swearing involved.

3.SAID BY.....AH, WES
where: Montauk
when: family vacation
how: really good aim
why: little boys, full bladders, empty bottle nuf' said.

4.SAID BY......TRES it sounded like he was saying "coltyn's on the roof" because coltyn was on the roof. So if your ever at our house and your upstairs and there's a fire and your trying to save yourself by getting out the windows and you can't because they are all screwed shut, this is the reason.

5.SAID BY......COLE of course the most positive and sweet thing was said by one of Ally's little angels.

6.SAID BY......CUATRO when he said that I told the other kids ''Don't sit on you Clinger cousins"
ha, ha, just kidding, or am I? Love you Ally!

7.SAID BY....THE AMAZING RILEY AND THE UTERI- if she ever has a band, I think that would be an awesome name (if you don't know why, ask Holly)

8.SAID BY......DOS sometimes you just gotta say what you feel, or in this case scream at the top of your lungs what you feel.

12.SAID BY......UNO A big Thanksgiving dinner, then sitting on the pot singing a Thanksgiving ditty, does life get any better?

Obama loves terrorists, and his plane smells bad. Vote McCain! (He only stinks half as much.)

Keep your gas tanks filled, pray a lot, and keep some food in your basements. Signs of the times??

motherload said...

way to put a bummer on my amusing post, but at least I have one comment now, whats wrong with the rest of you??????

allison said...

Just trying to "conversate," Sista.

allison said...

Now you have four posts.

allison said...

Wait, make that five posts.

allison said...

You know, six posts in 30 minutes ain't bad.

allison said...

Seven. Do I hear seven?

allison said...

Hope Dad's having a gay time in San Fransisco. Anyone heard?

allison said...

Also, everyone needs to send good vibes Ryder's way. Poor little fella.

allison said...

I don't know what you mean, Tracy. This post is very popular!

allison said...

Must sleep.

Evil Brother In Law said...

Is allison hinting that we should have a political discussion?

Why not?

Why should intra-family wars be reserved for holidays?

motherload said...

I saw 13 comments and thought wow, I really am loved then I realized it was all Allison and it made me a little sad, then I read about dad having a "gay" time in san fran, and that made me laugh,then Allison mocked me by laughing and that made me sad again.

allison said...

Evil: This race is really only between two candidates, and my conscience tells me to vote for the better of the two. One more vote for McCain challenges Obama's chances for presidency better than my one vote for some third party. Yes?

Evil Brother In Law said...

If you think McCain is honest, good, and wise, then go ahead and vote for him.

D&C 98:10
Wherefore, honest men and wise men should be sought for diligently, and good men and wise men ye should observe to uphold; otherwise whatsoever is less than these cometh of evil.

In my opinion, he doesn't meet the criteria.

allison said...

Either McCain or Obama will win. McCain obviously fits those criteria better than "That One," though he still has problems. Does your candidate meet those better than McCain? Has he endured enough scrutiny for you to even know?

I doubt we'll ever have a candidate who has the wisdom and goodness described in that scripture, because as we're reminded in D&C 121:39: "We have learned by sad experience that it is the nature and disposition of almost all men, as soon as they get a little authority, as they suppose, they will immediately begin to exercise unrighteous dominion."

Just tryin' to make my vote count as much as the system will let it. Gotta keep the man-child out!

Pam said...

what do you do if you drop a quarter in san fransisco?

Pam said...

kick it to oakland. haha

why is dad in san fran?

Evil Brother In Law said...

I think you're right allison. In fact your view is supported by an apocryphal book recently unearthed in Qumran by the CIA. It's the Book of Karl, an ancient conservative prophet. The following excerpt is a prophecy relevant to our day:


Karl 3

1 And it shall come to pass that in the last days the people of the Promised Land shall be divided. And one group shall take upon them the sign of the donkey, and they shall be known as the Donkites. And another group shall take upon them the sign of the elephant, and they shall be known as the Elephites.

2 And the Donkites shall be despised because they commit many whoredoms, and murders, and stealings, and lyings, and buggeries, and all other manner of iniquity.

3 And the Elephites will proclaim the sins of the Donkites to all who dwell in the land. And the Elephites will condemn the Donkites that they shall be cut off from the presence of the Lord.

4 And still, there will remain those who are numbered neither among the Donkites nor among the Elephites. And they shall be known among the Elephites as Kooks. And the Kooks shall be despised by the Elephites.

5 And the Kooks shall say “Yea, we know it is unwise to take upon us the sign of the donkey, for the Donkites do sin greatly and offend the Lord.”

6 And the Kooks will say “Yea, the Elephites do also commit many whoredoms, and murders, and stealings, and lyings, and buggeries, and all other manner of iniquity. Yea the Elephites do offend the Lord in the same way as the Donkites, so we shall neither take upon us the sign of the elephant.”

7 But wo be unto the Kooks who will not take upon them the sign of the elephant. For they will waste their votes and they might as well be numbered among the Donkites.

8 Yea, the Kooks shall lack the wisdom to know that while the Elephites shall commit many whoredoms, and murders, and stealings, and lyings, and buggeries, and all other manner of iniquity, the sins of the Elephites shall be slightly less grievous than those of the Donkites, and the Elephites will not revel in their own sins quite so much. Thus, the Elephites are pleasing unto the Lord by default.

9 For in the last days, times will be more complicated, and the wisdom and admonitions of the prophets of old shall be useless, because they don’t understand the way things are in modern times.

10 For yea, nine-eleven doth change everything.



Hasn't been approved by the Brethren yet, but it is freakishly prescient.

Dad took a week long trip with his brothers, to visit all their childhood haunts. He has had a good time. He'll be back late tomorrow afternoon.

Tracy, when are you posting your birthday tribute to Jim?

allison said...

Don't be callin' me a Kook. You still haven't convinced me that your guy's any better. How do you suppose the prophet and apostles will vote? Betcha they're not all for Ron Paul, or whoever it is you like.

allison said...

Pam: You could also just bend at the knees.

Holly Rhees said...

What is going on here. We aren't supposed to have intelligent conversation here this is supposed to be fun. And Jim, I googled "book of Karl" and nothing came up.

Anyway Ryder is home now and doing better. He will have more tests in a couple of weeks and then he will probably have surgery. He has problems like Rylie, so maybe he can be in her band when they're older (obviously they aren't the exact same problems, but they are similar).
Also, I like how I am your reference for several of the quotes. If anyone would like to know the full story I'll fill you in!

Evil Brother In Law said...

Obviously, allison, you aren't understanding the prophet Karl.

I believe you would be an Elephite.

The Kooks are those who won't join either group.

At least that's the way I interpret Karl.

Holly: Keep googling.

motherload said...

you know the world is coming to an end when jim start quoting scripture.
Glad Ryder man is better, the rhees family must have some funky bladder gene going on because obviously only kindness and goodness come through the Balmforth line.

allison said...

I just got out my Urim and Thummim so I could better understand these sacred passages. I've always heard the Donkites referred to as Jack Asses, so I was a little confused. Forgive me, Kook. In my haste to show offense, I misread, thus drawing a faulty conclusion.
