Hey, here a few thoughts about Mo Madness so far. (For those who do not know, Mo Madness is similar to the NCAA brackets. But, rather than basketball teams, Mo Madness pits classic elements of Mormon culture against each other and allows you to vote and help choose which one will ultimately emerge victorious.)
First, I am surprised to see Fry Sauce leave the tournament so early. While Fry Sauce is undeniably a mayonnaise miracle, it could not take the pressure of Fiber of My Being. Those who wanted to see a dip go far in the tournament, however, can console themselves that Seven-Layer Dip did advance to the next round.
I also would not have guessed that Napoleon Dynamite would have taken out Middle Initials. Sure, if it had been Napoleon L. Dynamite, I could have seen it, but I just did not see plain-old Napoleon Dynamite carrying the day. I was wrong.
One close contest from the last round was between Star Wars Gospel Analogies and J. Golden Kimball. And, [Bleep], J. Golden Kimball bit the dust.
As we enter Round III, remember that of the sixty-four elements of Mormon culture that started this tournament, only sixteen remain. So, each of these has a lot of MoMenteum.
In this round, you will see, among others, Canning vs. White Dress Shirts, Hands that Prepared This Meal vs. Darn It, and Pioneer Trek vs. Family Blog.
To vote in Round III, click here. As you vote, please carefully consider each match up. I do not think that this rises to the level of a duty--being that it is a waste of time--but in my mind, it is friggin' close.
* I will post the results from the last round in the comments section. Feel free to give your take there too.
Man versus Ferrell

I love Discovery Network show Man versus Wild. I rarely get to watch it
though. However, am really glad that my wife turned on the DVR for this one.

I love your blog. I mentioned it in my relief society meeting a few weeks ago. Thanks for bloggin.
I LOVE MoMadness! Can't wait to see what happens next!
This is seriously the only bracket racket worth following, IMHO.
i'm shocked and saddened that donny osmond beat mr. kruger's christmas. first of all, it should have been cypher in the snow in that spot, but i was banking on mr. kruger's christmas to go to the final four to vindicate the cypher loss.
I hope you do not mind, but I had to link your blog...I have to say, darn...you make me laugh!
Through your blog, I have finally found out what Fry Sauce is. I don't think anyone does that here, but Ranch Dressing is a big thumbs up - at least for fries. This blog makes me laugh and embrace the Mo all at once. Appreciate 'cha.
