That would definitely be a title he would use!

He has a unique way of creating a mental picture with his titles (effective use of menomic devices) that is forever hooked to the message!

Thanks... I think! I'm not sure if I'm a Menomic or not; they tell me I'm probably of a English background.

Still regret not getting to talk to you more while I was in Lake Charles. Maybe next time! And, ironically, it's not all that far over here!

I think the ministers should be required to be present for the whole session, and if it's noted that they only show up for one big vote and skip the rest . . . their votes should be disallowed. Either that, or put Res. 4 at the very last of business; only keep a couple doors open for entry and exit, monitor those doors, close the floor to keep people from coming in after a certain hour, so that way ministers can't skip the majority of the Resolutions and come in right before Res. 4 is opened. If they leave, they're not allowed back in.

Chaotic, I've surmised that I would not agree with much of what you say on this forum... but having said that... THIS was a brilliant post and one that I would stand shoulder to shoulder with you on any day of the week!

I find it sad, even pathetic, that people will show up for a 'candystick' vote and bail on the rest. I could even see if if there were perhaps just one more 'minute' thing that was just correcting a technicality but leaving every other resolution to the 'will of the brethren' while throwing a hissy fit about 'the will of the brethren' on something like television... well... again... I agree with you on that wholeheartedly.

(I know it's not quite a 'water into wine' miracle but it's close!)
