Sitting in a hotel loby (no this is not the Prince song Darling Niki) waiting for a conference. Dressed in a western shirt, buckaroo hat, and chuckkas minding my own business with a coffee in hand. Guy comes up "so, where did you serve your mission?" Suppressed by the assumption a mix of Copenhagen and coffee fill my sinuses. It takes all I have not to spit upon the floor. Mind you this is in the heart of North Dakota.

"And why would you assume I served a mission, or that I was even mormon?" He explained that you never see someone in that kind of attire with a white shirt showing through. I explained I am a fat guy who sweats. Now what about the coffee and chew you ask? I called him out and said "if I was a momo where you gunna tell rhe bishop?" He just smiled.

A non-mormon would probably have replied with "Excuse me? - Serve what? Did you say Chicken?"

The footwear gave you away. Better buy some real boots to wear with that getup, western boots at that.

Needed a comfy travel shoe for the 4 hour drive that started at 5am. I put on the square toes soon after my arrival.
