Just another in my series of Halloween posts. Oh yes, and I need to thank Farrah for the costume suggestions. The wife and I will be going to the ward trunk or treat as the Fireman (me) and the French Maid (her).

I voted yes. That is all.

Man, when was Farrah giving out costume suggestions? I need some good ones for me and the Mrs.

last year my brother in law was a plug and his wife was an outlet.

I'm not sure how to vote on this, as during my years as a funeral director, I've had a few interesting experiences.

So SIEQ, how is this data going to hold up during the peer review for your next professional publication? I'm not sure that a Cougarguard chit chat poll will meet their standards for a randomized, cross sectional demographic analysis.

I just hope to at least get to read some of the stuff you are going to publish about us from some of these questions and polls you are posting.

SIEQ could summarize us here - as well as pretty much every other message board in cyberspace - in two words:

"They're nuts."

Some day I'll probably end up with a note in my personel file from SIEQ about my neuroses.

LOL!

I don't use anything here in a formal way. I'm just broadly thinking through issues (such as mysticism, in this case). In the future I'll probably do a piece on Mormonism on the Net, and have ambitions for some books, but I'd follow formal research guidelines if/when I get to those projects...

So no worries.
