Oh ignorant youth, the world is not a joyous place. The time has come for you to dispense with the frivolous pleasures of childhood and get down to honest toil until you are sixty-five. Then and only then can you relax and collect your social security and live happily until the time of your death!

Stopped at where his "shop"m used to be in Nauvoo Il a few years back.
Was only a couple doors down from where the printer's shop was that was burned down by Smith which ultimately caused Smith's demise.  :shake:
How many of you knew he was a LDS conversion ?   :D
