Hello Utah,
     So first things first, why Kick a Poo? well that is the native Indian tribe around here and the literal spelling of the tribe name is Kickapoo, and is literally pronounced the same. there is a shopping mall called the Kickapoo Shopping center. Ya I laughed pretty hard when i saw that. So other fun thing is the streets here are made differently some how. every parking lot has some sort of different seal on it so no matter how slow, or how shallow your turn is you always have your tires yelling. its kinda funny. Well I went on exchanges this week with an elder Noyce (pronounced noi  se) and he is one of those geniuses. He has a life time scholarship to school and makes 2 grand ever semester, for just attending school. He did nano technology and made all sorts of amazing things with them. he designed a nano bot that would attach itself to a zygote of a mouse (a zygote is an egg) and change the genetic code of the mouse to make it florescent. He also designed a nano bot to make is so water could not form into a solid. he said with that last bot you could spread it on roads and it would break up all the ice and snow on the roads. Ya he was just one of these smart people. We met a 18 year old boy on our exchange named Tyler and he had his own apartment getting married to a 16 year old making 9 bucks and hour, and he was very proud of that amount, and he smoked, did drugs and has half his teeth rotting out. He said that he was waiting for god to slap him in the face so i used my favorite one liner to get his attention, "Hi." Funny enough that actually woke him up and he started asking questions and he showed a desire to change his ways. every single person we met on that exchange made fun of me for my lack looking old, oh well. The area we did the exchange in was called Branson, or as the locals call it Las Vegas for families.
Bad new is that Johnny is now ignoring us and is moving this Friday so we will not be able to teach him. We did get a new investigator through the members and she seems golden but we will see. Other than that things are going well. This last week flew by and it seems like my mission is already zooming by. Love all you,
