Resty; what are you babbling about?


In the days of primitive tribes and grass huts, there was one tribe which was very warlike.
They won many battles, and took control of many other tribes.
One of their customs when they beat another tribe was to take the most prized posession of the enemy's chief.
One time, after a particularly fierce battle they defeated a rich tribe, whose king had a prized solid gold throne.

As was their custom, warlike tribe took the throne, and put it in the loft in their chief's house.
Unfortunately, the throne was much too heavy to be kept in a loft in a grass house, and it fell right through the ceiling, onto the chief, killing him instantly.

The Moral of this story is...










... People who live in Grass Houses shouldn't stow thrones!

They were innocent Christian's, moving Westward, who hoped to find a better life forthemselves and children. They incurred the suspicion of Brigham Young and were murdered by MORMONs; only ONE of whom were EVER prsecuted for the crime.
