Do We Need Help With Elections
Perhaps it is time for the UN to monitor our elections.
Government 2.0
I really and truly heard the term Government 2.0 on the radio this morning. I shuddered and it wasn’t from the cold. However, I listened to the broadcast anyway despite my disgust at hearing that our government was now being tagged with version labels. (Shouldn’t we be on something more like government 232.0 or something…

My deepest sympathy goes out to all those who don’t make their home in Logan Utah. There are few places that offer as much in the way of the outdoors as here. This past weekend we spent out time at Bear Lake about an hour away. It is a rather large body of water which…
My wife is pretty cool
