Default How the GE's eat their Reese's

So, I wasn't sure whether to put this in the funnies or here, but I decided here would be best. This made me laugh hysterically, cause I could just see them saying it!

Top Ten Ways General Authorities Eat Reese's Peanut Butter Cups

10. Paul H. Dunn: "I remember back in WWII that I ate a Reese's Peanut
Butter Cup. Back then, they were big enough to live on for a week. Being
the only soldier to have survived the battle in my brigade, I really
didn't know if I could eat it or not, but I remember my fallen buddy's
words as he died in my arms: "Paul, if you just take one bite at a time
you can tackle anything." So I took that giant cup and, breaking it with
the bat Babe Ruth gave me after I struck him out with two outs in the
bottom of the ninth in the seventh game of the World Series, proceeded to
wolf down the tiny morsels."

9. David B. Haight: "Imagine 70 years ago on a rough road between Idaho
and Logan. There were no Circle K's, no 7-11's. You had to bring your
Peanut Butter Cups with you. Ruby and I split one for the first time in
1937.

8. Dallin H. Oaks: "The Reese's Peanut Butter Cup challenges us to
consume. From the beginning there have been three steps in eating a
Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. First, remove the wrapper. This is best done
quickly, by turning the cup over, grasping the outer fold and pulling
away from the bottom, Second....

7. Joseph B. Wirthlin: "When I was young I would sprint to the corner
store, buy a Reese's and run my hand through my hair before taking it
down in one bite. These days I don't sprint, and I have no hair, but the
peanut butter cup remains."

6. Richard G. Scott: "If you have not eaten a Reese's Peanut Butter
Cup, I plead with you. Eat one now. Enjoy the chocolate, the peanut
butter. Do not delay. If you have thought, "That's not for me", I plead
with you to reconsider. Of all foods I treasure, this one was the
first."

5. M. Russell Ballard: "The time has come when members of the church
need to reach out to our friends and share a cup, a peanut butter cup.
It is not enough to raise a chocolate bar, it must now have peanut
butter."

4. Thomas S. Monson: "I remember I ate my first Reese's Peanut Butter
Cup when I was a tender lad of eight. My mother came up to me, and with
a loving twinkle in her eye, asked, 'Tommy, are you eating a Reese's?'
And I would invariably smile up to her, 'Yes, Yes, I am.' 'But Tommy,
did you know that Sister Jensen next door hasn't eaten a Reese's Cup in
years?' My young mind thought upon the plight of my neighbor. Tears were
shed. Hearts were gladdened. A cup was shared."

3. Boyd K. Packer: "In all my years, I have always eaten my Reese's
Peanut Butter Cups the same way - the established way we have been
instructed to eat them. There is a far greater evil in this world,
though - those who believe they can eat their cups in a way
unconventional to the time-honored manner. We must be true and faithful
and eat our Reese's Peanut Butter Cups in the customary and recognized
approach as it has been established."

2. Neal A. Maxwell: "I intentionally initiate the delicious design of
deglutition of the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup by nibbling a negligible nit
of the culinary creamy cavalcade. It is exclusively through small
entities that the great things are fabricated."

AND THE #1 WAY:
J. Golden Kimball: "Hell, Heber, I'll eat a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup
any damned way I want!"

Very cute Teeny. When I first strated reading, I thought, "What?". It took me a second, but I got it.

Yeah, I can be a little irreverent if you know me very well, although I'm SURE that it's my DH that's rubbed off on me!!! The fun thing about these is that I'm sure the GE's would think they were funny when they read about themselves! I love our GE's! They're great!

Amber, I have no idea, but I'm pretty sure it is made up.
