24 KOBE!

Paul,

First off, sweet song, I enjoyed listening to it. Also here is a quote by President Joseph Fielding Smith from the institute manual on that verse:

D&C 84:4. What Is the Meaning of Generation?

President Joseph Fielding Smith wrote: “There have been various interpretations of the meaning of a generation. It is held by some that a generation is one hundred years; by others that it is one hundred and twenty years; by others that a generation as expressed in this and other scriptures has reference to a period of time which is indefinite. The Savior said: ‘An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign.’ This did not have reference to a period of years, but to a period of wickedness. A generation may mean the time of this present dispensation.” (Church History and Modern Revelation, 1:337.)

I believe you are right in that the meaning of generation pertains to this last dispensation. Emma and I are doing great. I turned 24 this past weekend and that was pretty hilarious. Emma took care of me and got me some new mocc's which is rockin! We went out with friends for dinner and then games/cake/dessert afterwards. It has been snowing here this past weekend and today. It sucks and that is stupid. On one last note, I picked up this guy in a wheelchair who was having his dog act like a sled dog and pull him through the snow and ice, and he was stoked that I had a Strung Out sticker on my car. He said that was totally "punk rock" and told me about how his sister just tried to kill herself by shooting herself in the kidney and how that was "hardcore." Yah he was a little out there, but funny.
