Rodcast 134: Jahr


For an unknown reason, a few seconds of the trivia section didn't record. This is weird because usually the recording stops completely instead of just not recording a little. Hopefully such a thing doesn't happen again.

Next Rodcast: Face cards!

Hey, here is a link to that blog regarding that BYU girl who was called out for alleged immodesty.

Hey, also I mentioned a while back that I helped crew Scott Hanna's school assignment where he made a documentary about General Conference protesters. His video can be found here.

"Wrecking Ball" lyrics:

We clawed, we chained our hearts in vain
We jumped never asking why
We kissed, I fell under your spell.
A love no one could deny

Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you

I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me

I put you high up in the sky
And now, you're not coming down
It slowly turned, you let me burn
And now, we're ashes on the ground

Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you

I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me

I came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me

I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
And instead of using force
I guess I should've let you win
I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
I guess I should've let you win

Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you

I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me

I came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me

    This video is so much better than the Miley video. (Warning! it contains tasteful nudity)

    Also, two spaces after a period is just what you are supposed to do.

  2. I used to do the two spaces after a period thing, but I've reformed my practices this year and find the one space crowd to be in the right. Go one spacers!

    I always used to think that the year waiting period was to make sure the marriage would 'stick'...would last long enough to make it to the temple a year later. Call me unkind, but I'm OK with that.

    My trainer on the mission was from England, and she and her husband did the civil-marriage-one-day-temple-marriage-the-next thing. Interesting standard there.

    Pete's idea for requiring civil marriage first and not giving any legal standing to temple sealing is interesting. To make them two separate entities and not give the sealing legal credence could work.

    I do think that there is a good possibility that eliminating the one-year waiting period except in cases of moral transgression would 'shame' couples unnecessarily. Hadn't thought about that, but could definitely see it happening. "Oh THEM. THEY had sex before marriage and have to repent before they can go to the temple together." Not good.

    Like I've said before, my family isn't LDS, and I want a temple marriage, not 'just' a sealing after having a civil marriage they could attend. The heart of it is that, if it happens, I feel I will have earned the opportunity to marry my husband in the temple. We will have kept ourselves active in the Church, morally clean, etc., and I think that deserves some special treatment...some unique blessings, which only temple marriage could provide. I love my folks, but this is something I think I will deserve, as I fought for it and they didn't.

    Miley. Ew.

    PS: Who freaks out about face cards anymore?

  3. Miley Cyrus being inappropriate? Pfft! I've had worse ideas before lunch! Last time most of the thoughts I had were probably inappropriate. As a normal male from the US, I enjoy watching girls around town. Sometimes I think about giving a shoutout to all the hot MILFs in my ward.

    Was Pete's mission really that long ago? Now they have the Preston Temple, so the Saints in the north don't have to travel as far. I never really thought about the year waiting idea before, even though that's what my parents did. (My dad always liked to talk about how "young" he was since he was baptized at age 29.) I like Pete's suggestion too. That also goes along the the idea of removing all government benefits from marriage. Marriage would be a sacrament for the religious, and others can have civil unions. Everyone would then be able to live how they may.

    Perhaps the Rodcast needs to have a special fast for Pete's ward. We could all pray that they shape up and become true Latter-Day Saints. That way Pete could get more out of church and he could have more to contribute to the Sunday School lessons. (On related topic, why isn't Hymn #278 the theme for the Rodcast? I just discovered this great celebration for Sunday school.)

    I like to play a game of Hearts with some friends about once a month on a Sunday evening. It's a great way to keep up with good friends.
