Besides which, if missionaries are going to go cold calling in my neighborhood they may as well go fishing for great northern pike in the Great Salt Lake.

I can think of a lot of good reasons why home teachers and missionaries ought never to cold call or arrive unannounced. It does more harm than good, yet this particular type of rudeness seems to pervade the institutions.

Well, in this case, the home teachers didn't cold call. This particular individual called them to come help him with something.

I was responding to Lingo. This fellow didn't deserve to be pistol whipped even if he did cold call.

LOL. Name calling? Classy...

Got it. My mistake.

As to your Great Northern Pike comment - have you fished for them? If so, how is it? I'd love to do that someday.

I shouldn't have said "Improve your English". That was too harsh, and I apologize. Here is my response:

"kan bu dong"
