More Dan Jones Antics

Okay, blaming Dan Jones for all of the problems with the Deseret News’ report that Utahns don’t want tax cuts for businesses isn’t enrtirely fair.  The Deseret News should carry some blame too. Specifically, I am concerned with the graphic presented in the article (also shown in this post).  I hate to repeat many previous [...]

The Gazelem Response

Well, this year’s State of the State address by Governor Jon Huntsman, Jr. at least had me nodding my head a couple of times.  That doesn’t mean that I agreed with most of it though.  Let’s take it point by point. Huntsman said: “First, we need a personal income tax system that is simpler, flatter, [...]

Just Don't Watch It

You all know that I am a big media critic. You know that I don’t support much of what is available on TV, and if it is smut, that it shouldn’t be there.  You know that I would love for TV to go back to the good old shows like the Cosby Show, Knight Rider, [...]

My 2006 Utah Legislative Session Wish List

Often when you read such a list, you will find that it is a demand for more government services, more government regulations, and more government control.  Well, you know from me that isn’t going to be the case. In fact, my wish list is rather small.  It is a couple of I wants.  But they [...]

Not So Marathon Maniacal Monday

Okay, it is time for the confession.  Okay, maybe it is past time for the confession. I have given up on complete the Marathon.  Well, that isn’t completely true.  It is one of my goals still and I plan on completing it. My problem is that I have too young of a family.  I can’t [...]

Fabulous Farding Friday: Thanks Leonore

Wow, after a week of nothing, we have such exciting news. You have already noticed it even. We have a banner for this site. Isn’t it exciting. I wouldn’t have ever thought that I would have such a wonderful banner. But after some buttering up, a kind offer, and a few revisions, we have a [...]

Missionary Remembered, Miners Remembered

Okay, it is still pretty early on the  news about the miners, but my understanding at the time of this writing is that all but one of the miners were saved.  Thank the Lord for his mercy in this. God be with the family of the one miner who was lost, and our thoughts and [...]

Solemn & Sagacious Sunday: Book of Mormon Challenge

Okay, for most LDS writers, this is going to be a bit too cliche, but I have been revving up to write this column for a long time.  I perhaps should even have the blase title of “What I learned from reading the Book of Mormon?”  I am reffering to the challenge by our Prophet [...]
