The Epistle of Elder Short

 
 I Elder Short write a proceeding of my time among the Elders in the land of MTC. It being the 5th day of the eleventh month in the year 2000 and 10 years since the birth of Lord. 
2 I know not why I write, save it be P-day and my companion compels me. Nevertheless so has passed the second fortnight since my arrival in the land of MTC.
3 I know not the ways of the Lord, but I see the blessings that he has bestowed upon me. On the eve of our last devotional we were visited for a third time by an Apostle of the Lord. M. Russel Ballard did come and preach the word of the Lord concerning our role as "Master Communicators."
4 It compelleth me that I request fake credit cards for mine decoy wallet to give unto thieves and robbers. I and mine companion grown in our understanding of the gift of tongues, for our teacher did challenge us to speak only the words of Portuguese for the space of three days.
5 I have obtained great strength in the gospel and in my own stature, for I can now do all of forty push-ups.
6 We have received joyous news concerning visas. The calling of the chief judge of Brazil is now over and word of the progression of visas does spread
7 My time is now short upon this computer and I make a end of my  writings. May the Lord be with you in all your travels. Peace be unto you my brethren in the land of Babylon. Amen.
