The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) Justice David Souter has agreed that a review of the federal lawsuit filed by attorney Phil Berg against Barack Hussein Obama II which was subsequently dismissed for lack of standing is warranted. SCOTUS Docket No. 08-570 contains the details.
A review of that docket and rule 10 of [...]

Cowboy originally came to the shelter as a stray. He was adopted into a loving home, but, sadly, his owner recently passed away. He came back to the shelter for a new home. Cowboy is a big, friendly, outgoing, handsome teddy bear of a grey Tabby-Manx. He is large, but [...]

We are ready for you!!! Galena Lodge Opens Saturday November 22
We’d love to be skiing but who needs snow to have fun!
The trails are great for a hike or an early morning bike ride.  There is even enough snow up on the pass to go for a snowshoe adventure!
Galena Lodge will be open Saturday and [...]

[I posted this earlier this year and thought it was worth revisiting particularly since Obama has been getting advice from Eric Schmidt (Google CEO) and Marc Andreesen (Netscape co-founder)]
With 2 of the 3 remaining presidential candidates talking actively about how they’d use technology in how their administration would run, the blog post below [...]

Birdwatchers on Terroroids?

I read about how U.S. Security agents are keeping an eye out for birdwatchers. Seems you will need a police escort in some aviary areas now to enjoy this pastime every bit as popular as baseball, apple pie and Mom.�
I wonder how this will affect arrowhead hunting in Idaho. If you can’t glance up [...]

Have you ever dislocated a shoulder? If you have, then you understand the brief amount of intense pain that usually occurs just prior to getting it back in working order.
Today, Mitt Romney said screw Detroit in an Op-Ed piece. A couple of million jobs up in smoke. I totally agree. It’s time for the Big [...]

It has taken a little while, but it looks like we have a pretty good schedule for the season. We will start on the road, over in Jackson on December 19-20. The Moose come here January 23-24, always a fun series. A couple of fun games over the holiday, we play the future Suns on [...]

In case you missed the article we posted on the site about a week ago, the company that hosts our blogs had a catastrophic hardware crash. They then had difficulty reinstalling the blog software and restoring the database (i.e., the data that is the collection of all of the posts and comments on the blogs). [...]

This is one of those funny times when my comments are coming both from the vantage point of an elected official and a regular, common-sense citizen. I have striven to keep the common-sense citizen viewpoint as much as I can even while I’m officially a government official.  This post represents both viewpoints - citizen and [...]

This human nature we all live with, our personal identity is defined by our upbringing and our indoctrination into this system, all of which are by design to direct us in this life individually, yet when we attack others individuality thus we find the division and instinctive self defense of our identity as that individual [...]

Everyone is looking to stretch their dollars these days. Awhile back I was talking to a friend of mine who owns a green building center in Salt Lake. I wanted her best bang-for-the-buck ideas. Not surprisingly, she reminded me of what we’ve been told many times (and many of us ignored). The simple things often [...]

This is the third blog I’ve written this week. I took down the last two.
I’ve been having an internal struggle ever since the site went down. You see, I’m just not having much fun anymore. That’s originally why I began writing here.
I got some angry comments from people whining about the Obama blog. Chase must [...]

Amman, Jordan: One thing that is evident in this part of the world is that there are completely unrealistic expectations for an Obama presidency. Following the election, the Cairo weekly English language paper had a banner headline, “A Dream Come True”.
The US embassy personnel have told us that they are making an effort to reduce [...]

Beirut, Lebanon: One of the questions that I have been asking the Lebanese that I have encountered is “What is your reaction to the election of Barak Obama as President of the United States?” People tell me that the initial reaction of most Lebanese and the thousands of American ex-pats who live and work in [...]

“Anyway, I keep picturing all these little kids playing some unconnected game in this big field of SNRA and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody’s around - nobody big, with cell phone reception I mean - except me. And I’m standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I [...]
