I know, Mother's Day was 2 weeks ago. Shauna had to do quite a bit of touch-up to get these ready for primetime, and her Photoshop skills far outweigh mine. Go check out the new album for yourself for lots of pretty pictures.

This morning, Shauna decided that we needed to take a walk with the dogs. We started off in the neighborhood and wandered our way into Dimple Dell along Dry Creek, then under 1300 E to the side with the horse trails. I had my new phone with me and decided to snap a few […]

Now that the candidate filing period has closed, there's a clearer picture of what's going on with House 48, the district I live in. The race has made some headlines as LaVar "Elect Democrats and the Terrorists Win" Christensen has sought to challenge incumbent Sylvia Andersen to get his old seat back after being thoroughly […]

The Tribune posted a new article showing that Utahns have the highest rate of 'serious psychological distress' of any state, hot on the heels of similar news reported by ABC. It naturally kicked off the normal name-calling and general nastiness that have come to define the Tribune's readership (not that KSL is doing any […]

I want to extend a special thank you to Lyall Swim and The Sutherland Institute for hosting a blogger's breakfast this week. It's a rare thing indeed to get access to well-known pundits and higher-up elected officials and the conversation with Lt. Gov. Herbert was very enlightening. Here's what I took away from the dialog:
The […]

It's no secret I've been in some high-profile fights with Mark Towner over his spamming ways. Remember the gun-for-hire e-mail he sent from Utahns for Public School? How about the threats to sue me? Maybe his blatant violations of FeedBlitz's ToS and their lack of interest in enforcing it? After all of that, […]

I would really like a legislature to go by without some sort of embarrassing technology bill being put forth. Despite my best hopes, it appears that this year isn’t it. Rep. Brad Daw has put forth a bill (largely written by the Chairman of SCO, a company that has it’s own disgraceful and embarrassing history) […]

It seems that there's been a bit of a stir lately as newspapers have flocked to stories highlighting Utah's somewhat… lenient rules on legislative gift-giving and campaign contributions. For those that don't know, here's the skinny: campaign money can be spent on anything you want and you only have to report, not refuse, gifts over […]

The final votes are in in the Bloghive Advisory Board election and I won one of the seats! Thanks to everyone for your support. I highly recommend checking out the final results to see how the votes ended up being tabulated.
On a side note, I have to say that I'm really impressed with this […]

Apparently unsubscribe requests mean nothing. I got yet another spam from Marky Mark today, this time through FeedBlitz. Now if you recall, he used FeedBlitz back in June to send another round of spam. Rather than have his account terminated for violating the ToS, he decided to commit seppuku. I guess that was so […]
