Two friends of mine, a former co-worker and his wife, live in the Greater Seattle area, and have a blog that the periodically update with little tales from their rather unconventional life. I love these glimpses into their lives, because they remind me of how incredibly diverse people can be. They help me remember that differences help make the world a more interesting and vibrant place.
The most recent entry in their blog has me laughing so hard I'm crying. Here's one way to deal with Mormon missionaries when they come to the door (though I suspect it would work equally well with sales representatives and Jehovah's witnesses, too):

Enjoy!

My tactic is to interrogate them mercilessly on arcane aspects of Mormon lore like the Nemite tablets (about which I picked up a smattering of knowledge at the jailhouse in Liberty, MO, where Joseph Smith was once imprisoned). This is usually enough to convince them I don't need to hear any more of their stuff.
