Unless you are completely avoiding news coverage of politics lately, for which I can’t completely blame you, you are aware of Gov. Mitt Romney’s speech last night. The coverage is front page material and having comparisons drawn to the famous speech given by John Kennedy years ago under similar circumstances. As I checked out the [...]

Slow News Day? “Leave Britney Alone!”
Posted in News on Nov 13th, 2007
Honestly, I am no Britney Spears fan, but geez, we all gotta give her a break. This lady is not the sharpest tool the shed, and it is readily apparent that her parenting skills are lacking, that is no question. Driving abilities? Let’s just say I am happy to not be sharing the road with [...]
First we get a movie about a tragic event that a small group did in Utah history tied to Mormon’s on the whole. I haven’t seen the whole movie, but the trailer shows an obvious slant towards positioning all Mormons, old and new, as fanatics akin to Islamic radicals. Then we get CNN jumping on [...]
Criminals, Be Prepared!
Posted in News on Aug 7th, 2007
Obviously this criminal missed his Boy Scout meetings as a youth. “He told a teller to ‘hurry up,’ but when she asked him if he had a bag to put the money into, it must have flustered him,” Bisio told The Detroit News for a story Tuesday. “He ran off without any cash.” Come on [...]
Have you checked out the new Street View feature from Google? If not, it is a fun view of a couple of major cities as taken from a roving van topped with some special cameras. The low resolution photos are all linked together for a virtual tour along city streets. Google is not the first [...]
Is Spain being a little hypocritical?
Posted in News on May 31st, 2007
This morning in my morning reading, I perused an article about Spain launching a legal bid for claim on the recent massive shipwreck booty found. The company, called Odyssey, is the first of its kind: a publicly traded treasure seeking outfit. What they are doing sounds much like the Dirk Pitt treasure finds from the [...]
Yet another “news” story that drives me nuts. What is the fascination with Alec Baldwin’s marital and family problems? I am all for knowing a bit about the entertainers that show up on the big small screens, but diving into their problems is not what I consider news or even remotely entertaining. Are we just [...]
In Too Much of a Hurry to Enjoy Life
Posted in General Rants, Habits, News, Videos on Apr 10th, 2007
Life is pretty busy these days, and I am as guilty as anyone at rushing through every day trying to accomplish as much as I can. Whether it be the work I do during the day, the projects I take on into the night, or the many activities and try to accomplish with my family, [...]
Utahns Receiving Anti-Mormon DVDs
Posted in General Rants, News, Pet Peeves on Mar 28th, 2007
I just don’t get it. Really, why do people feel such a compulsion to try and beat down good things? On this site I generally steer clear of very personal topics such as religion, race, etc. I prefer to talk about things that are either common sense or just plain funny to talk about without [...]
San Francisco to ban plastic grocery bags
Posted in News on Mar 28th, 2007
Will it looks like San Francisco finally got something right. I say that because I’m not a big fan of all their attempts at legalizing gay marriage and the general liberal sentiments there, but there are things that I can agree on that come out of that city. One of those was announced yesterday, namely [...]
