Once some Mormon missionaries stopped me when I was in Harvard Square. They asked me what I knew about the Church of Jesus Christ and Latter-Day Saints. I told them how it was founded by Joseph Smith and that later Brigham Young led them to Utah. Also that polygamy had been an issue with the church. They were amazed and asked me if I was a Latter-Day Saint. I said "No, I just know a bunch of history." and then walked away.

The name itself, Latter-Day Saints, just sounds so... poetic.

Though it's spelled differently, Barnstable, Massachusetts, is named for Barnstaple, Devon.

A staple is one consonant away from being stable.

Fanfie will like this.  In Words With Friends, I call a hand with all consonants being consonant-pated. The opposite is a vowel movement.

It's good to know one can always fall back on poop humor.

Truly the most reliable form of humor. 
Keep up with what I've been watching lately! "Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you."

The Queen of Spades in my playing card deck has a small crease. I'm sure I saw an "I confess..." thread for whenever you're ready.
