Hinckley got Pwn3d

Post by _Mercury »

From Forbes:

That became clear when Cheney was introduced. He received thunderous applause from the 20,000 people at gathered at the university, which is owned by the Mormon church. The crowd cheered louder for Cheney than they did for church President Gordon B. Hinckley, whom Mormons consider a prophet.



Sooo, We see that even at BYU the prophet is getting upstaged. Damn, times are changing.
And crawling on the planet's face
Some insects called the human race
Lost in time
And lost in space...and meaning

I'm willing to bet that they just felt awkward applauding the Prophet. Note general lack of applause in General Conference.

Or maybe they thought Cheney wouldn't be likely to take them to task for their earrings, tattoos, facial hair, ponytails, or flip flops. Maybe they thought Cheney would actually give some information that would be useful in the real world, instead of what they've learned in at least four of their classes.

I wore a speedo swimming last week. Should I watch my mailbox for excommunication papers? I better warn my uncle about the ponytail thing.

A crime against humanity, Nehor. Unless you're one of the 2 people in the world who look good in one.

Operation "Get a Six-Pack" has met with complete success. Of course I look good.
