    On October 22 I wrote about a letter I received from Rob Bishop in response to a message I sent regarding illegal immigration. I indicated at the time that I would post a scan of the letter the next day. I guess nine [...]

  • Letter to Rob Bishop

    Number of comments: 9

    I recently sent an email to United States Congressman Rob Bishop, representing Utah’s 1st congressional district. The subject of the message was illegal immigration. I hope you’ll find what I wrote reasonable, even if you don’t agree.

    We can’t catch all speeders, but we haven’t stopped ticketing the ones we can. [...]

  • Effing Up The USA

    Back when I was a kid, during the Jimmy Carter administration, there was a parody of the Oscar Meyer bologna jingle that poked fun at the president. I recall it went something like this:

    My president has a first name, it’s J-I-M-M-Y.
    My president has a second name, it’s C-A-R-T-E-R.[...]

  • Government/Business Entanglements

    I was reading a post on Slashdot about a guy who got fired from his television network job for sending a private email from a private account to a member of parliament expressing a dissenting opinion about some proposed legislation. He sent it to his MP, who forwarded it [...]

  • Swine Flu of 1976

    Many people believe the Swine Flu outbreak of 1976 was a hoax. Others believe it was overreaction. Some think the government did the only thing they could.

    Many people are critical of the government response because the swine flu vaccine is believed to have killed 25 people, whereas the swine flu [...]

  • Rush Limbaugh

    In the interests of full disclosure:

    I am a registered Republican. I’ve never voted for a Democrat candidate for the presidency. In the last two presidential elections, I’ve not cast a vote for the Republican candidate. In 2004, I cast a vote for the Constitution Party candidate (I can’t remember his name at this [...]

  • Spanglish La Parte Dos

    A female friend recently overheard the following paraphrased conversation in a women’s restroom at a restaurant:

    Little Girl: “What does that sign say?”

    Mother: “It is to tell the people who work here that they must wash their hands before they can go back to work.”

    Little Girl: “Oh. What does that other [...]

  • Spanglish

    Some time ago I was having dinner with my family at a buffet-style restaurant in Ogden, Utah. While looking over the dessert selection, I noticed (thanks to ambient back lighting) that the “Lemon Bars” sign had some writing on the back. I removed the sign, turned it over, and read: [...]

  • Minimum Wage vs Living Wage

    An article in today’s Deseret News tells of a group of Utah religious leaders who have all signed a letter to the state senate president urging the legislature to raise the state’s minimum wage. This is a bad idea! The minimum wage is just that: a minimum wage. It [...]
