I mean, this guy (my then-boyfriend) is a dyed-in-the-wool jewboy (went to Yeshiva, etc.), so I just thought it was some weird stereotype; however, sure enough, when we walked through the bedroom, on the bedside table was The Book of Mormon. I was the recipient of a self-satisfied smirk, and I never questioned him again (now you know why I couldn't possibly have married him).
I still don't quite know why "nothing on the walls" is a Mormon giveaway, but, there it is.

Wow. Honestly, of all the weird Mormon stereotypes out there, I have never heard this one before. We have lots of stuff on our walls. I know, we're not typical Mos. But my parents are, and they've got stuff on their walls, too.
Oh, and str8--it's St. George. No apostrophe s.
