  3. TOOELE... Sounds Like ....... Ta Will a................LOL way different than it is spelled
  4. I agree Stawberry, growing up there and still have lots of family most of it is true , we got outta school for hunting season and i remember them shutting the place i worked down for hunting season and BYU Utah games Not any one i know here knows how to say Tooele LOL , they argue with me about it (our old principale from the schools here was from there and went home on the weekends) i always go there when i go out to visit my famliy and son's.
  5. You know your from Utah when..................... Green jell-o with carrots mixed in doesn't seem strange. You can pronounce Tooele. The U is not just a letter - Neither is the Y. You have actually eaten funeral potatoes. You've gotten both heat and frost burns off your car's door handle in the same month. You are not surprised to hear words like "Darn, Fetch, Flip", "Oh, My Heck" and "Shoot". Your tulips get snowed on three times after they come up and twice more after they bloom. Hunting season is a school holiday. The largest liquor store is the state government. You can go skiing and play golf on the same day. 30% humidity is muggy and almost unbearable. Somewhere in your family tree is a polygamist. You know the difference between a 'Steak House' and a 'Stake House'. The elevation exceeds the population You've broken down on the highway and somebody stops to help you You can see the stars at night You have a bumper sticker that says "Families are Forever." You were an aunt or uncle before you were three. Your spouse's mother was pregnant at your wedding. You have more children than you can find biblical names for. Your family considers a trip to McDonald'd a night out.. Your first child was conceived on your honeymoon. You feel guilty when you watch Monday Night Football. Your kids believe the deer hunt is a national holiday. You drink Coke from a brown paper bag. You consider a temple recommend a credit reference. At least two of your salad bowls are at the homes of neighbors. You believe that you must be 18 or older to order coffee at a restaurant. You wonder why fire truck drivers honk when you drive 35 mph in the left lane on the freeway. There is a similarity between a ward basketball game and the L.A. riots. You think Jack Daniels is a country western singer. You negotiate prices at a garage sale. You can make Jell-O salad without the recipe. You've heard about BYU football in a testimony meeting. You have two gallons of ice cream in your freezer at all times. Your father-in-law thinks Ronald Reagan was a liberal. A member of your family wrote in Lavell Edwards for president in the last election. Cars in the slow lane are traveling the fastest; cars in the fast lane are traveling the slowest; cars in the middle lanes are always trying to exit. Sandals are the best-selling shoes. You have to ask for the uncensored version of "Titanic." Hotel rooms all have the Book of Mormon. You buy your wardrobe at the local grocery superstore. You learn about the Mormon Church by taking history in elementary school. You live in a state where Democrats always come in third place, unless a zoo animal is running. Then they come in fourth. You're on your own if you are turning left. Schools stay open, even if two feet of snow falls overnight, but close for the opening of hunting season. People wear shorts and T-shirts if the temperature rises above 32 degrees. There is a church on every corner, but they all teach the same thing. The most popular public transportation system is a ski lift. People drive to Idaho (or Arizona) to pick up a gallon of milk so they can play the lottery. In-state college football rivalries are bigger than the Super Bowl. Beer drinkers don't shop on Sunday. You don't have to breathe cigarette smoke until you walk outside a building. The cost of living rises while your salary drops. Every driveway has a minivan and a pickup truck. When you buy a new vehicle, cigarette lighters are optional equipment but gun and ski racks are standard. Every time a new family moves into your neighborhood, the local elementary school has to hire a new teacher. Your paycheck has an additional 10 percent deduction. "Temple recommends" is acceptable identification for cashing a check. More movies are filmed in your town than in Hollywood. You've never had a Mormon missionary knock on your door. (not true i have had them knock when i lived there) Your neighbors complain about where they live, yet refuse to return to the state they moved from. You make a toast with red punch at your wedding reception. You have more raw wheat stored than some Third World countries. Your idea of a good time is playing Pictionary in the cultural hall. Your idea of a wild party is a six pack of Pepsi and a PG-13 movie. You and all your friends come to your mother for a haircut in her kitchen. You measure Kool-Aid by parts per million. You think "You're a 10 cow wife" is a compliment. You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends from Utah.
  6. Tickle me Elmo?
  7. Happy Birthdayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
  8. I absolutely follow the Word of Wisdom.....I do not drink anything containing alcohol, use any kind of tobacco, drugs, drink coffee or tea cafinated or otherwise.....I do however enjoy an ice cold Pepsi at lunch most everyday...but this does not keep me from holding a Temple reccommend. I eat junk food in moderation, excercise and am quite healthy.....the Lord has blessed me very well for following his word. AWESOME! good for you, i guess a pepsi once a day isn't to bad LOL ............. A group of Missionaries came in again today, LOL i tell ya they do try to buy the diet coke, I talked him into a rootbeer. It is so nice to see them, we get a rather large group about twice a month today there was 15 which surpized me only one was a sister and she stuck with (i am not sure what they are called) the transport guy?, I thought you had to have more then one maybe i am wrong i know she said she was being transferd, interesting though, i always love to see them.
  9. I seem to collect kids, Others of course, i think i do because they feel at home around us and always are comming to me for adivce and help or just to visit. ( i guess working at the schools as long as i did they all got to know me) Their is not a day that goes by that one of the school kids come in and visit me at my new job and beg me to go back to work at school, one funny thing is that the high school kids all call me MOM, the middle school kids call me Lisa and the grade school kids call me Miss Lisa, i have people at work that get confused when the high school kids come in and call me Mom............How many kids do you Have Lisa? LOL I say ALOT!!!!!!!!!!
  10. So is it just Utah members who fit into the catagory above? LOL No, My ward here has it's issues too. The other day also we had missionary come into the store were i work, (a whole group transfers i guess) and one tried to buy a diet coke LOL i looked at him and said....I know you arent supposed to buy that. He looked at me and said your LDS Huh? i said yes ...he put it back Too funny, My point is that i don't know to many that stictly fallow the word of wisom
  11. Ok how many of you truley fallow the word of wisdom? And i am talking about you diet coke drinkers too! and those who over indulge in meats sugar etc.. I know if we fallowed it sticktly their would be less obese lds, when i was in Utah i could not belive all the fast food and junk fellow LDS people were downing, and you could tell by how many people were way over weight. i grew up there and yes alot do drink diet coke and eat alot of junk, isnt that disobaying the word of wisdom? those with out guilt cast the first stone! what happened to every thing in moderation?
