It's crazy what information people can get about you on the internet.

If it wasn't for you, there'd likely be no Alkaline Trio in my life, so I owe you big time.su-tang 3000https://www.blogger.com/profile/05402075107993300262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091357.post-17200029392343156932008-06-26T22:23:00.000-07:002008-06-26T22:23:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03538704089222846456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091357.post-76109686061979072432008-06-26T21:42:00.000-07:002008-06-26T21:42:00.000-07:00So, this post got me in trouble with my mother-in-...So, this post got me in trouble with my mother-in-law. I have no idea how in the world she stumbled across it, but it came up over gelato tonight. I had to explain the tongue ring and the punk rock music.<BR/><BR/>My mom and I actually got in a fight about the tongue ring on my way to the MTC. I told her that I wouldn't cause any trouble and that I'd take the tongue ring out if anyone ever asked me to. Nobody ever did. The young women in Dordrecht actually pooled their money together and got me a new tongue ring for my birthday. I'm still wearing it.<BR/><BR/>I have no recollection of the cassette tape in the bathroom incident, although it doesn't surprise me at all. There was an older elder when I got in the mission that wanted me to go see NOFX with him in Amsterdam. That one I passed on. I also discovered the Get Up Kids on my mission along with Saves the Day and Alkaline Trio. Those would be my favorite bands for the next few years.<BR/><BR/>So, I was not a good missionary when it came to music, or body piercings, or probably a lot of other things, but I <I>did</I> help a few people who I still keep in contact with, so I'm hoping God will let it slide.Joshua Ligairihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09303954694927465470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091357.post-2935350777487494422007-12-04T18:51:00.000-07:002007-12-04T18:51:00.000-07:00funny stuff...funny stuff...ribbijhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06475842101599801190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091357.post-1105978819971983472007-11-29T15:48:00.000-07:002007-11-29T15:48:00.000-07:00I've found throwing Ace of Base in the ol' tape de...I've found throwing Ace of Base in the ol' tape deck really helps those cross-country drives go down. <BR/><BR/>Glad to hear you have a soft spot in your heart for Scandinavian pop.Allison and Noah Rileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06402521230831256970noreply@blogger.com
