Tintin and Temple
Every day at work, I learn at least three to five obscure yet interesting factoids.
Today's:
a.) I never knew until this week about the famed comic book character Tintin and his hard-drinking dog Snowy, the work of a Belgian who once got accused of being a Nazi sympathizer, and now Spielburg plans to make a movie of Tintin. But, the most interesting thing to me is that Tintin, who, by the way, is a journalist, looks EXACTLY like Conan O'Brien.
b.) As an obsessive fan of the show "Big Love," how on earth did I not know about Temple Undergarments?

Whoa! They showed the undergarments on "Big Love?" I did unofficial research into the LDS church and thought their big deal was the undergarments were secret. Did you also know that a lot of the Mormon rituals were based on Freemasonry b/c Joseph Smith was a freemason before he hooked up with the angel Moroni?
Hello, my name is Tori and I'm way too fascinated with Mormons.

J- there's so much info on Temple Garments that I'm overwhelmed.
S- Yes, I'm also obsessed, ever since I watched "Big Love" and learned that Mormon husbands are either chiseled manly men who look like Bill Pullman, or creepy lecherous troglodytes who look like Harry Dean Stanton.
