Announcing the brand new Singles' Blogward, an online singles' ward. OK, not really. It's a webring I started for single mo bloggers. Although I do have some ideas for things we can do with the blogward that go beyond just the usual blogring.
To read a description and/or join, click below:
JOIN HERE.
****UPDATE: We now have 8 fabulous members in our blogward. Yay!!! Keep 'em coming folks.***
umm...Davis? Are you signing up? We're waiting.....
*Thanks to Dave of Mormon Inquiry for his blog club which planted the seeds for this idea.

What a great idea! I volunteer to be a visiting married dude from the high council. My job will be to leave really really boring comments that make everyone fall asleep. Actually I feel bad now because I really like our current high councilman.

Danithew,
You are welcome to it. This ward is organized differently from real life ones though. So, I, as ward president and ring creator have an omnipotent position. Married high council members can leave comments and offer sage advice to the members, or make us laugh, beyond that you are merely lurkers here. ;-)

I'm excited to see what ideas you have that go beyond the normal blogring? Roadtrips? Maybe I need a layover in NY on my way to England this spring.
Message from Sarah Marinara
Sounds interesting. Can I join, even though I share a blog with a happily married man?
Also, JL, are you going this friday? I'd rather not be the only single person in the room.
Message from Davis Bell
Davis,
Hmmm, good question. I'm inclined to let you join. So come along and welcome. I can't guarantee permanent membership if the other folks complain later on which probably won't happen. For now I'd love to have as many people as possible.
I probably won't be there Friday because my lil sister is coming to town that day. I don't know what she wants to do and how much time she wants to spend with me, she's bringing a girlfriend too. I'll try to stop in. But, you won't be the only single. D and Jim Lucas are single too. If you are really lucky my sister will want to come and she's a fabulously cute girl that all the men adore but she is currently taken.

JL,
Btw, what ward are you attending?
Message from Davis Bell
From what folks in the bloggernacle tell me, I'm in the Park Slope ward and my bishop is the dude over at Outer Boroughs. I haven't managed to attend my new ward yet because I'm a lazy slob who can't wake up early on Sunday morning or bother to get directions to the chapel on Saturday. I avoid singles wards.
Message from JL
Well, I can see why you avoid them. They're not my favorite, either, but at this point family wards are kind of painful for me. Kind of like working at a restaraunt while you're fasting.
Message from Davis Bell
Yeah, me too. That's probably why I'm not excited about going to mine. What's wrong with this picture?
Message from JL
Davis,
Cut out the coyness and ask her out already. You both have bloggernacle track records that establish ability to think articulately. She's reputed to be at least moderately cute. She seems to meet your confessed ideal, and you seem to have at least some aspects of hers (and remember, she's flexible). Also remember that she has publicly confessed the key to her heart (so there's no "what does she want from me?" problem) -- she wants you to do her laundry for her. Come on -- give her an e-mail or a call, show up on her doorstep with a rose in one hand and a roll of quarters in the other, and let the sparks fly. :P
Message from Kaimi
Oh, hey there, Kaimi. Cough. Cough. So, anyone seen any good movies lately? Cough. Sweet.
Message from Davis Bell
Lol. Kaimi, thanks for that. If you only knew how many speeches exactly like that one he's already heard.
Problem, Davis isn't Jewish, and he doesn't like "Moz." Can JL really be that flexible?
Message from Ryan Bell
moderately cute? Is that what Steve Evans is telling everyone? hmmph. You can ask Jim Lucas for a second opinion since we met last week. ;-) I am definitely a type though, a man who isn't into the crazed-urban-librarian-amazon look won't be attracted to me. Although I am known to occaisionally don the chic-sexy-man-eater look just for fun. But day to day I look like a librarian.
Kaimi's not far off--any man who shows up with a roll of quarters gets in the door. He doesn't even have to be jewish or a Moz fan. Actually, I think I'd prefer someone who loves the Smiths but thinks solo Moz is silly.
Davis, don't worry, I'm not expecting you to ask me out. But feel free to do my laundry anytime. I've got 6 weeks worth piled up in my room. Probably 8 loads. I'll even provide the quarters. And last month I bought an old lady cart so you don't even have to carry it the 4 blocks to the 'mat like I used to.
Message from JL
I won't subject JL to the indignity of having to say yes to a date with someone she's never met. But I will shoot her an email.
Message from Davis Bell
Lol, Davis, It's not like I haven't done it before. But I appreciate your respect for my dignity. It's nice that someone is concerned about it since I'm clearly not. :-)
Message from JL
That is such a funny, and cool, idea. My hubby and I can chaparone anytime you need us. :)
Message from Aimee Roo
What a great idea! I'm in!!
