2 hours after getting a call to talk in sacrament on temptation, I got online looking for Napoleon Dynamite tidbits, and came across the Letterman clip. THEN stumbled on your thoughts from the Larry King interview with President Hinkley and it became my foundation of my talk. It was so very strange. I also am intrigued on this business of loading people’s iPod’s for them for $$$. My wife doesn’t pay me to load hers, but man! What a sweet idea! I wonder what demand in Utah for that would be? Ever need a Utah connection let me know! I spend half my day on this my Mac, I may as well get paid for it! Thanks for inspiritaion on the talk.

I loved this part too. It reminded me of a thought I had a few months ago. “I feel many of us are on the wrong side of the ball, or at least our focus is. To many people say we can’t let satan do this, or we got to stop him or [as some may see as resisting the temptations of life.] That frame of mind puts us on the defense and him on the offense. However, we are the offense. The gospel is the offense. satan is tryin to keep us out of proverbial endzones. If we continue on the defensive we will, just like any good defensive football team, grow tired and let the offense score. However if we are affectively running our offense, we keep our defense fresh for those few times they have the ball or in other words, when we are tempted.”
