Fallacy

The South won the war!

You think that I am lying

The South won the war,

Is everyone crying?

Wait a minute you say that not what I was taught

The south won the war!

Ok now you’re looney

The south won the war

Now pass the banana pudding.

I can’t believe your saying this, you’re making me distrauught

The south won the war!

Im starting to believe you

The south won the war

I am thinking it’s all true




If you keep repeating and repeating it must be a true plot

Let the Amen Sum All Our Praises

I have been moved by this statement as of late. About a month ago I was asked to be part of a multi-stake choir to sing for the priesthood session of general conference. Of course, I said yes. Because the actual experience of singing during a worldwide conference was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Yet I did not look forward to singing in a choir that big and to the rehearsals. I guess I had a bad attitude and I needed to be taught some new virtues. You see I don't like big choirs because they don't like it when I do things to stand out. I love theater because even with a small role there are always opportunities to stand out. And if not I make the opportunity. That is not the case with a large choir especially one that will sing before the world like at general conference. In fact, great effort is made to unify each individuals appearance and especially their vocal quality. I have always been a "look at me" kind of person. So it is uncomfortable for me to sit...

I confess I am an imposter!

             I have to come clean. I have to expose a secret side to my life. For the past ten years I have been hiding behind a mask, well actually a beard. I am now ready to confess, my name is Andrew Mair and I play Santa Claus.   It all started innocently enough. My younger brother had taken up the habit several years before me. And I told myself that that was not for me. I would never do that. But then I bought a Santa hat, it made me look jolly and "Christmassy".     Then I would throw in a "ho ho ho" from time to time just to try it out.   Even still I never thought I would become one of “those” people.   And then one day while walking through the Brigham City Deseret Industries thrift store I saw it, A Santa Suit.   I wasn’t sure if it was had all of its pieces, or if it was still intact and functional.   It had everything, a beard, a full suit, a belt, boot coverings, a hat and a w...

Art?

Since a young age I have always been sourounded by art in some fashion or another. I am not unlike most people in that way. But different than most people, I currently serve as the Artisitic Director of "The Village Green" a little Dinner and entertainment venue in clearfield, so shouldn't I have more understanding of Art than most? I am not sure that I do. When I speak of Art I am not specifically reffering to Art that hangs on a wall. In fact I am very rarely moved by that type of Art. Does that make me less sophisticated in my Artisitic tastes? I concider myself and Artist, I am a singer, I play the guitar, I am a playwrite, a Set designer, an actor, but mostly I seem most comfortable simply in the role of entertainer in any form. I think a lot of artisits would look as Art simply for entertainment as shallow. Am I a Shallow artist? Wikipedia defines Art as, "the product or process of deliberately arranging symbolic elements in a way that influences and ...
