We had a visiting 70 for Stake Conference on Sunday. He's a relatively new GA and apparently wanted to impress us. He gave a bizarre, self-promoting talk that included personal tidbits that his salary, until becoming a GA, "made Michael Jordan's contract look like chump change", that he graduated from Harvard (repeated about 10 times for emphasis), and that he's good friends with Mitt Romney. He also told a story that accused Egypt of imprisoning an Egyptian who converted to the church and having well known terrorists torture him. It had a Paul Dunn quality to it.

Lindsay: Well, did it work for those people? Tobias: No, it never does. I mean, these people somehow delude themselves into thinking it might, but...but it might work for us.
