NOM

Hey NOMies,

It's that time again. Just a rule refresher for how to play NOMfrence:

Every speaker starts with a score of 0
If you hear something you like, give them some points.
If you hear something you don't like, take points away.

We try to use the same scale as Hogwarts House points: 5s,10s, and 20s. But if you hear something really bad, feel free to go wild. At the end of GC we will tally everything up and make a list ranking the talks for best to worst.

Also check out 2bizE's Konfrence predictions thread. Make your own predictions or add your name to the lists of predictions already made. Who knows...you might turn out to be our next Prophet, Seer and NOMerator!

Lots of Love to my NOM family! We will get through this weekend!
Nolite te Bastardes Carborundorum
Don't let the bastards grind you down!!!

Gina Colvin posted this on her FB page:

A handy language guide for conference watchers:
Belief isn’t the same as faith.
The Gospel isn’t a synonym for the church.
President isn’t the same as prophet.
‘Sustain’ isn’t a synonym for obey.
Doctrine isn’t a synonym for ‘truth’.
Belief isn’t a synonym for knowledge.
Praising women doesn’t give them power.
Following Jesus isn’t the same as following the Brethren.
And finally; the men can’t be trusted to speak on the subject of women, race, LGBTQ or faith crisis.

I thought this was amazing and wanted to share.

The official NOMference breakfast is cinnamon roll and an iced espresso

The cinnamon roll represents your Mormon past and the iced espresso represents your NOM present and future.

And here they come... Rusty and friends

This is already so boring and I'm almost out of espresso

Just waiting for the espresso to kick in...

It's awesome to no longer fear coffee or tea.

Oh I think we are going to get a "talk " prayer

It's life changing really...

Total talk within a prayer and he even dropped a "covenant path" in there.

Good listening! I was sitting right here and didn't catch a word of the prayer while trying to fend off kids jumping on the couch.

I don't know why I love talks within a prayer almost as much as I love suck up 70 talks. Something about it I just find so hillarious.

Holland is up first

Wow starting this off with a bang

Holland.

We're such a righteous family even our babies don't skip a GC session!

+5 for talking about Jesus

well this is taking a turn...
