I am constantly reminded how amazing the internet is.  I was playing Rainbow 6 three tonight (or rather this morning) at about 3 or 4 am.  I played with 8 other guys and not one of them was from the US.  Two from Austria, on from Germany, and one from Canada and other places.   Everyone was all different ages too, 12, 14, 23, 33, etc.  It’s really crazy to picture 8 guys from completly different walks of life in the four corners of the world getting together to play a silly video game in the middle of the night (or in the morning depending on where you are). 

I met another guy on there, Herby, who is also a mormon and lives in Austria.  You know, when you say you’re from Utah it’s like putting up a flag for other mormons.  He is 33 and served a mission in Frankfurt, Germany.  Being mormon is way cool because whenever you run into other mormons (Utah excluded due to saturation) you’re like automatically friends because you’re in the same club. 

So in conclusion, being mormon is cool, and online video games are also cool.
