The GAs are getting fat.
Please do put a dime for every dollar in these old mens' hat
If you haven't got a dime, a rock will do
If you haven't got a rock, their God will mess you!

I think I once saw a lovely Ensign pic of Baby Joe in a cradle in Vermont. Or Maybe just an empty baby smith bed. Can anyone post that gem?

A nice comment re Holy Joesmisthmas from years ago:

"This is a tough issue. How do you tip one’s hat to the Prophet without being accused of celebrating “Smithmas”? Will TV clips of the Friday event make Mormons look like they “worship” Joseph (as they sing “Praise to the Man” and not “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel”)? How are you handling the double celebration?"

They actually had a Joseph Smith nativity scene at BYU. Someone here probably knows a link.

I totally loved this "manger" scene. Still do.

Everything that is off-kilter about "Smithmas."

That vantage point from atop the stairs looking down. It just would have been too tempting to accidentally drop ones lunch from above..

Joe liked his ho, ho, hoes.

Do we all get shinny rocks in hats and go around the neighborhood stealing men's wives to celebrate

That would be a tough row to ho.

We Three Witnesses from New England are,
Bearing testimony and wife-sharing afar.
Whoring, Hounding, Westward bounding,
Following yonder cult...Oh......
Cult of wonder, cult of weird,
Cult of handshakes, cult with seers,
Right-wing leading, members bleeding,
guide us to, the perfect weird!

Jingle! Jingle! Jingle!

Winnah, winnah, chicken dinnah!

And he needed more witnesses still, still, still...

along with a few of the other irreverent seasonal ditties. It's at the bottom of the song and poems section. Don's got a funny one in there as well.

On Friday afternoon December 20, 2013 Utah's gay marriage ban was declared unconstitutional. Some couples were able to get married in Salt Lake before the County Clerk's office closed. But most of us had to wait until Monday morning, December 23, to get to our county clerk's offices to get married.

So on Joseph Smith's birthday, December 23, thousands of us gay couples in Utah have our wedding anniversaries. I got to marry the love of my life on December 23, and as an added bonus I got to deliver a big f@ck you to Joseph Smith, his church, and the state his church tries to run.

F@cks for everyone except the biggest one of our past lives - Joseph Smith Junior. He had plenty in his long past life.
