Here's my idea of a perfect general conference:
10 minutes: President Monson greets us and tells us an inspirational story involving widows.
15 minutes: Elder Uchtdorf talks about whatever he wants.
15 minutes: Elder Holland talks about whatever he wants.
20 minutes: Tabernacle Choir
Prayers are not to exceed one minute.
We meet again in six months and repeat the whole gig.
Lets start a movement...I could get behind this in a big way.
ReplyDeleteI actually thought the prayers were shorter than usual this year. :)
ReplyDeleteNo women? Tsk tsk. Also, I'd like to have a cute 4 year old (with a lisp) give a 20 second talk please.
ReplyDeleteThis is so perfect, Sister Plummer.
ReplyDeleteWomen are only allowed to talk if they use their "big girl" voices. Relief society voice makes me want to chew glass--which is to say--Louise I am totally with you on speaker selection.
ReplyDeleteAgree. A lot of the talks in-between are mushy. I would like more women speakers, but not if they are going to defend women's rights to do nothing.
ReplyDeleteI would have to take a long bathroom break if the choir sang that long. Especially if it were the all male choir from the priesthood session. Bleck! I'd like to hear a quartet or solo sometimes to mix that distinctive sound.
ReplyDeleteSounds good to me! Maybe we could channel Cheiko Okazaki somehow?
ReplyDeleteAh, I knew you were a kindred spirit. Uchtdorf and Holland are my two faves as well
