Nope. ;O)

It may help you to erase it from your memory banks to know I turned 50 this week. :O


Alright.....maybe I'll erase it......maybe ;)

(but isn't 50 the new 30?)

So they say, but I'm currently unpersuaded. :P

Variety. Depends on who I am around.

When in prayer or study I cover as much as possible.

Ah. One more follow-up, if I may. Is this a requirement of a particular religion (which one?) that you now affiliate with, or is there some other origin? (by the way - I like the green one. Nice color). Again, it's just curiosity - I'm not familiar with many religions that involve head coverings for women (outside of some middle eastern religions and maybe one or two eastern orthodox varieties). And I like to know stuff.

So was I. I started a thread about that not long ago, and people ridiculed me because I was taught not to say no.


You know, this is one of those things that bugs the fire out of me regarding this whole internet Mormon/exmormon thing. I'm sorry, I just don't recognize the church these people attend. You know, the one with no formal doctrine, the one that doesn't demand certain beliefs of its members, the one that was FINE with people studying controversial topics, the one where only lazy idiots don't know Joseph Smith married other men's wives, the one that DIDN'T teach people not to say no to callings....


This is so correct. Of course you are taught to never ever say no!
