Trying To Stay Hip, Cool, With it…

“And as all have not faith, seek ye diligently and teach one another words of widsom; yea, seek ye out of the best books words of wisdom; seek learning, even by study and also by faith.”
D&C 88: 118

Does this include Facebook? Does Facebook somehow constitute a book? Is there any wisdom to be found in Facebook? Well, either way The 9th Ward is on it now! So, if there was any wisdom to be found in Facebook, it just got a lot stupider by our presence…

Peter Priesthood is from Provo, Utah. He is married to his high and they have eight children with one on the way. He is currently serving as 1st counselor in the Bishopric as well as being the seminary teacher.

Although going to work each day, Peter finds time to make welfare visits during his lunch hour. On his way home from work, he stops to make the family’s food storage purchases whenever there’s a good sale. Once home, Peter likes to spend time in the family’s acre garden. He’s known for his generosity with his abundant zucchini harvest. During dinner, Peter loves to hear how each child’s day at school went and they have fun trying to liken the scriptures to the events of the day.

Then it’s off to do his home teaching and driving the older children to young men and young women’s. Peter’s hobbies include family history, writing talks for sacrament meetings, and mowing the lawn/shoveling the driveway. Sorry for this little hiatus but… …we’re working on a book. In the meantime, enjoy this oldie but a goodie. I did a new drawing for it…I was never satisfied with the original drawing:

We were flattered to find out that our blog was included on another top 100 list! This time it’s the “100 Most Bookmark-Worthy Websites for Christians”…awesome huh? See it here. Of course, we have to wonder about the validity of any website that would include us on any list, unless that list was “the top 100 websites that make us hang our heads in shame and disappointment, and then curse the amount of time we wasted looking at it.”

Now there’s a list that we would own! Either way, thanks for including us!

The whole family was out of town at a cabin in Tahoe. Of course, this cabin had no internet access…fortunately it did have satelite t.v. or we could have been in real trouble.

So we apologize for the lack of new gags…of course, maybe we should also apologize for coming back this morning and posting something new…it all depends on your point of view!

It had the usual: tomato sauce and cheese on top and they even threw on a little pinneapple, which isn’t too unusual. However, they then seemed to lose all etiquette when it came to the fruits. It had figs, peaches and even green olives thrown in for good measure. They then proceeded to call it a Californian Pizza…why would they call it that? And, no, I didn’t like the flavor it produced at all… Posted by Ryan Goldsberry at 12:24 PM 9 comments Links to this post Friday, July 17, 2009 Even A Rock Looks Better!

Check it out here: -lds-bloggers.html Dang! The only conclusion we can come up with is that maybe there’s only like 51 LDS bloggers…and one of them hasn’t posted anything in two years. So, by default, we made the list! Either way, thanks to the folks that put this list together!

Well, it turns out that we have a few people that look at our blog, and to our surprise, there are even a few that live in our home town of Livermore, California.

The question has arisen as to who we are (probably so that we can be avoided at stake and ward functions…I mean come on, would you want to hang out with people like us?). It then occured to us that we never posted our full names. I’m not sure why…we really have nothing to hide… except for our own shame. So, the decision was made post our identities for the public! Are you excited? Can we get a drum roll please? Our names are Rick and Ryan Goldsberry! Whew! That was exciting wasn’t it? Take some time to recuperate. Thank you! That is all. Go back about your business, and come visit us again on Friday. -Ryan Posted by Ryan Goldsberry at 3:38 PM 2 comments Links to this post Thursday, January 22, 2009 Practice Makes Perfect Posted by Ryan Goldsberry at 9:29 PM Links to this post Labels: Boy Scouts Friday, January 16, 2009 10% of Zero is still Zero Posted by Ryan Goldsberry at 7:56 AM 4 comments
