Remember "My Bodyguard?"

Well this is kind of stupid but I thought it was weird. I read that sometimes when people are withdrawing from Benzodiazapines they suddenly remember things they haven't thought about for years. Well it happened to me yesterday. All of a sudden out of the blue the movie "My bodyguard" came into my mind. I think the last time I watched that show was 1985 or something. It's about a guy who is getting picked on and hires a great big guy to be his personal bodyguard. Well that is all I have to say. Someone needed to make a new post on the blog so I did.

Hyun

I was really sleepy last night so about 10:30 or so I went to bed. I had barely gotten there when the phone rang and it was Hyun on the phone. He said he wanted to call and talk to us for Thanksgiving. He said that he is doing fine and plans a visit in the Spring. He asked me about all of you and wanted me to say "Hello" for him. It was good to hear from him since I hadn't heard from him for quite awhile.

The miracle of the key

Last week I had a very interesting experience. On Monday our Primary children were meeting at the church for an activity in which they were going to fill up toy bags, which we had sewn for humanitarian) with toys, some that they contributed from home and other that we had already accumulated. The Bishop had told us that we could store our humanitarian things in a small room that is above the stage, the only problem was that as yet we didn't have a key to the room. I contacted the stake person in charge of keys and he told me that he would get me a key by Sunday. When Monday came I still didn't have a key so I called around and finally located on that belonged to the Stake Executive Secretary. I finally got the key from his house and we were in business. I went up to the church and helped the Primary leaders to set up things and helped with the activity. When it was time to go home I looked in my pocket and I could find all my keys but the one I had borrowed. I looked all around the church and still couldn't find it. I finally called the Executive Secretary and then I felt even worse. We agreed to meet at the church and look for the key, we thought we might have to go through the more than 200 bags that the primary kids have filled up. I got Julie's kids to go with us to help. When I got to the church we looked first in the closets in the R. S. room and as I bent over to look into the closet I saw something silver sticking out from under a plastic container in the bottom of the closet. I looked closer and there was the lost key. When I found it both Dale and the lady who is stake humanitarian director said that they had prayed before coming to the church that it would be found. I am sorry to say that I hadn't prayed about it. But, there prayers must have been strong since I found the key almost as soon as I got to the church. It was a single key on a ring so it was small and hard to find. Needless to say we were all happy, especially the Stake Executive secretary since the key I lost was a master key to the whole building.

Christmas presents

I am sorry that I am so slow in posting this. I have talked to many of you about it but I am finally letting you all know. When talking to Maralee awhile ago she suggested that instead of the siblings buying presents for each other that we each find a cause, a family or a person who might need our help this Christmas and use the money that we would have spent on presents and contribute the money to our local project. I think that it is a good idea and should be the means of helping out those around us. That doesn't let you off the hook for great presents for your Mom and Dad though. I know this is a tough area since I have a hard time figuring out what to get Dad myself.

I refer you to a Skinner Report special news story to show that we at the Skinner Report know what we are talking about. I can't elaborate here or Skinnertopia will lose it's Nobel Prize.
