Robert Kirby's Mormon Cocktails (Salt Lake Tribune)

For a future time, I might do these Mormon cocktails, courtesy of Kirby of the SL Tribune.


   Kirby: 13 Mormon cocktails for New Year’s Eve                 
Other Mormon social drinks include the "Surely Temple" (Sprite and any kind of fruit juice) and "Mud Backslider" (chocolate milk and a graham cracker).
Most Mormon "mocktails" rely on caffeine or sugar for the party buzz. Unfortunately, it takes a lot of either or both to feel it. You may have to rely on straight soda fountain syrup or undiluted fruit juice concentrate.
For what it's worth, here's a list of Mormon mixed drinks that may come up. The good news is that they're inexpensive and easy to make.
Ox in the Mire • Basically a root beer float, but really any soda pop with something frozen added to it. 7-Up and sherbet works.
Blood Atonement • Fruit punch concentrate and a splash of Tabasco Sauce.
Service Project • Any drink containing an actual food item — shredded carrots, fruit cocktail, turnip wedges or even ham chunks.
Scripture Chase • Shot of Red Bull with a liter of Pepsi chaser.
Mission Call • Glass of water.
High Council Toddy • Hot cocoa and Nyquil.
Rise and Shout • BYU-blue raspberry punch and marshmallows.
Home Teacher • Non-alcoholic beverage served at final moments of the party.
Apocalypse • Mountain Dew Code Red and a dozen NoDoz, shaken vigorously.
Jack Mormon • Whatever you got (and please sneak some booze into it).

Canadian Joke

Today in front of a Canadian, I told some other Americans my joke about how Canada got it's name.
It was originally supposed to be named CND probably for Commonwealth National Democracy or some jive thing, but someone pronounced it C_eh_N_eh_D_eh

April Fool's 2011


I'm almost ashamed to say I played this one, after the devastating effect it had on my son's psyche.
He had just turned fourteen and loves basketball and the NBA.  He loves the Utah Jazz, as well as, follows the LA Lakers.  They played in Utah on April 1st this year.  So on his way to school that morning, I called his mother who was taking him to school and told her to tell him I had 3 tickets for the lakers that night.  He was very happy and by the time he was getting ready to get out of the car, I told his mother to tell him April Fools.  Well she did, hesitatingly.  He broke down in tears, from the major disappointment.  I had to profusely apologize to him on the phone.  Then after school I had to take him out for a fountain drink.  Every so often, he makes me buy him another one.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 

April Fool's 2005

In approximately 1995 I did an April Fool's joke on my co-worker.  She was the office manager and I was a business consultant.

The workplace was a business consulting firm.  They had a contract with the Minority Enterprise Development Administration to help minorities and women start businesses or expand their businesses with loan proposals, government procurement, business plans and other marketing.

Every government agency has an Inspector General that acts like an internal affairs cop on TV.

So I addressed a fedex letter package to the office and sealed it with a letter inside asking for various information on prior high profile clients.  I'm not sure if the clients were too wealthy for our program or what, but there was reason to worry about something, although I can't remember what it was.  The letter had all kinds of fake, but plausible information in it.  Like, one of the DC addresses was Henry Kissinger Blvd.

I laid the sealed fedex letter on the back table so she would see it when she came back from lunch to use the copier or get something in the file room.  She saw it asked about it, I said ya it came during lunch.  Sorry forgot to tell you.  She opened it and took it to her desk.  She just kept saying, "oh my word, oh my word".  She smoked on it for a minute, then went to the restroom.  When she came back, she picked up the phone to call her boss in Portland that owned 5 of these centers.  As she was dialing I handed her another copy of the letter, only the bottom signature person said April Fools with yellow highlighter.   She said, "you mean that this is an April Fools joke".  She didn't know whether to laugh, cry or kill me.
