I for one hope that Peter$on doesn't give up hope and is able to actually make this film. Just remember Peter$on, some of the world's greatest movies faced similar hurdles.

Apocalypse Now almost wasn't made and the funding was day to day. Thankfully, Francis Ford Coppola didn't give up and was able to give the world a true cinema masterpiece.

Peter$on, just know that everyone here at Mormondiscussions.com is rooting for you and the Interpreter to finish this film. I can't wait to see it. Please don't give up!

Wow, EWC--that's fascinating. I'm tempted to ask where you heard that information, but I think I already know the answer.

Dr. Scratch,

Yes, you are correct about the source of this information.

I for one am rooting for the Interpreter to kick it in the butt and get the funds necessary. I can't begin to tell you how much I'm anticipating this film.

If your comment—which you yourself characterized as “rumors”—was truly a straight-up “lie,” then why would it merit such a ballistic post like this?

That Midgley cat really comes across as a bitter, insecure old man who obviously is not happy with the way his life has turned out but, holy hell, that guy is hilarious.

wow. Where does the midge come up with this?

If I recall correctly, Midgley once said he has a friend who,once or twice a year, alerts him to posts here. Apparently, that friend's name is Google:

I have recently received three Google Alerts that send me to a despicable message board, whose owner represents himself as Dr. Shades....

Wow, that’s funny. Priestcraft Peter$on is having a mini- meltdown.

Dr. Scratch, you know the identity of my source and how tied in to the Interpreter’s inner workings this individual is. My source wasn’t under the assumption that the SEVERE lack of funding is supposed to be viewed as confidential information.

Why doesn’t Priestcraft Peter$on just announce what percentage of the fundraising goal they’ve reached? That would be the easiest way to show my informant was incorrect.

Peter$on, I’m issuing you a CFR. If my information was wrong, then tell us what percentage of the fund raising goal you’ve achieved.

Of course, everyone knows that Peter$on won’t do this. Hmmm, I wonder why?

I don't even want to think too much about this, but is there any chance he's talking about toothpaste?

If not, WOW. :eek: :eek: :eek:

I am apparently a simple little country girl, because I LITERALLY have never heard someone use that phrase in a conversation before.

And now I am an educated country girl, thanks to Google search, omg.

Louis Midgley, you have a filthy mouth! My mother would have washed your mouth out with soap. My Bronx born and raised in-laws can swear with the best of them, but I literally have never heard any of them, not even the fire fighters and cops, say anything as foul as the stuff Midgley posts.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

(sorry, Doctor Scratch, I don't mean to hijack your thread, I'm just in shock. I work in Manhattan, but I have learned more filth from Mormon apologists like Midgley and Smoot online than I have ever heard on the streets.)

Lois:” There are people who can't seem to spit or swallow when it comes to the Church of Jesus Christ.”

Lois, could you please clean up your language? There are many other descriptors that aren’t nearly as pornographic. Just a thought.

Lol. I’d like to assume he is trying for the holier-than-thou Christ quote about being lukewarm but I think that just makes it worse the way he said it. It’s gotta be tough being a bitter, blindly devoted, out of touch old man in the Information Age realizing you devoted your life to a sham. He’s the opposite of growing old gracefully.
