Monday fun: What Kind of Mormon Are You?

chanson, April 13, 2009

What kind of Mormon / non-Mormon / anti-Mormon are you? Are you a misfit Mormon? Jack Mormon? Intellectual? Fundamentalist? Ex-Mormon? If you’re not sure, this quiz claims to be able to help you figure it out! So far, three of our readers have taken it (here, here, and me), and…

Sunday in Outer Blogness: Easter Edition!

chanson, April 12, 2009September 3, 2011

Happy Easter everyone! I would do an Easter-themed roundup, but it seems not too many in Outer Blogness have blogged about it. I figure that either (like me!) they don’t have that much to say about Easter, or they’re so busy painting eggs that they don’t have time to blog….

Daily Universe FAIL

chanson, April 7, 2009January 15, 2011

Oops, looks like BYU’s Daily Universe made a little boo-boo in the caption, upgrading the Quorum of the twelve to “apostate” status. Hat tip Miguel. BYU News Net explains the error here.

chanson, April 6, 2009

chanson, April 5, 2009October 20, 2010

You can learn a lot of interesting things from reading the Bloggernacle. For example, I learned that this very weekend is the weekend of the LDS semi-annual “General Conference”. So far the Bloggernacle’s coverage of this event has been pretty positive, which can mean one of three things: (1) the…

4:00 a.m. (O.H. continues)

chanson, March 30, 2009

I woke up on the floor. I felt really thirsty and had to pee. The T.V. was still on but not making any noise. Someone must have muted it at some point. I stood up and looked at Tanya lying there asleep on the couch. I felt confused and wanted…

chanson, March 29, 2009November 9, 2011

Outer Blogness is popping up all over!! By that I mean that people are actually starting to put the lovely list script in their sidebars! The first one (from way back) was the popular atheist group blog Unscrewing the Incrutable, but more recently others have done the same: Jesus’ General,…

Sunday in Outer Blogness: Monday edition!

chanson, March 23, 2009November 9, 2011

Folks, sorry to be a day late on this! I have had an insanely stressful week which kind of bled over into the weekend, and I was barely able to get the Skeptical Parent Crossing carnival done on time. But there have been some interesting items in Outer Blogness this…

Jared gets drunk… (O.H. continues)

chanson, March 16, 2009

On Wednesday all of our family was arriving for Thanksgiving. We didn’t normally all get together for Thanksgiving, but after the fight that Mom and Dad had had with Rex when he was visiting over the Summer, they decided that they wanted to try to make a special effort to…
