The Friggin' Four (Mo Madness Round V)

Alright folks, it is nail biting time. Mo Madness started with sixty-four elements of Mormon culture, four remain.

How tough are the elements in the Friggin' Four? For me, looking at which elements that exited the tournament last round really puts things into perspective. Funeral Potatoes has gone the way of the Earth. We are only left to wonder if those putting on the services will actually have the gumption to serve funeral potatoes at its services. Church Basketball is finished and, as always, Church Basketball put up a good fight or at least a lot of petty gripes, cheap fouls, and a really bad attitude. Jell-o Salad is gone, which is going to make Sister Smith really happy as she takes her empty Jell-o dish for the washing. And, thankfully for those involved, Pioneer Trek has come to end. All that is left of it are the war stories we share next week at church and years from now in therapy.

For the Friggin' Four, we have two power match ups. We will see two badges of righteous apparel. Yes, that's right, it is White Dress Shirts versus CTR. We we also see two familiar but still strange phrases have it out. Yes again, it is Fiber of My Being versus Hands that Prepared This Meal.

My heart hurts a little to know that funeral potatoes are now gone...sigh. But up against CTR--they never had a chance.

I wonder if CTR should be disqualified. It seems so unfair that Mormons are taught at a young to choose the right when the choice is placed before them. Given this, is it any surprise that when you say, "Hey Mormons, what to you choose, the right or funeral potatoes?" that they choose the right?

Choose the right at least one more time. I hate white dress shirts. If it was up to me then church would be casual dress for everybody.

Shirts and ties are for robots.
