Mission Home

I spent the last month of my mission working out of the mission home. (Have I ever mentioned that this strip is very, very loosely based on my own mission experiences?) It was the best thing for preparing to return home to my own family.

The Ultimate in Missionary Footwear

If you're thinking that today's gag was just an excuse for me to draw a couple of mobsters, you're right.

Avoiding the Mission Curse

This is a really good idea. Keep reading to see if Elder Van Dyke's final companion can be the first to avoid the "mission curse." I've got my doubts.

Lift Where You Stand

Today's gag comes from a General Conference talk from 17 years ago.* This blog is timely as ever! (Look for my takedown of TikTok in 2046.)

It's appropriate that such an old message would be quoted by these particular missionaries since they've been serving in the Transylvania Central Mission for nearly that long.

*Seriously, though, I am dumbfounded that we first heard Elder Uchtdorf's counsel to "lift where you stand nearly two decades ago. That talk has been around longer than the target audience of this website (although kids these days are too busy looking at YouTube to ever find it).

Anxious Passenger 2

Congratulations! You made it to the end of my driving comic strips. Wish I could say the same thing for Elder Van Dyke's companion (RIP).

Law of Consecration

I'm really proud of myself that I managed to come up with a Brigham Young gag that had nothing to do with polygamy. 

Brother Brigham is easily the most featured latter-day prophet on this website. I really hope he has a sense of humor.

Anxious Passenger

This is like the old* joke where a man gets a call from his wife who tells him to be careful driving home because the news says there is a maniac driving on the wrong side of the freeway. He replies, "I know but it’s not just one car there are loads of them!"

*I think the original version of this joke had the couple talking after he arrived home.
