Just when you think you did a great job....

This evening at the stake general priesthood meeting I fulfilled an assignment to join the stake presidency in a panel discussion about home teaching and personal priesthood interviews. We sat in chairs in risers right in front of the first pews. I was first, taking five minutes to discuss stewardship interviews. I finished, pleased with my presentation. The first counselor in the stake presidency was speaking and fielding questions from the large gathering of priesthood brethren. As he did so,one brother in the front row reached up to me and handed me a note. I thought it might be some nice compliment on my presentation. I opened the note and read the following:

"I noticed that your fly is open".

So much for decorum; I made the requisite adjustment and slunk down in my chair, chagrined...sigh...
