  • Yes, I’m Still Alive

    It’s been a while since I’ve posted here and I am going to work harder to change that. Things have been very busy at home and at work lately. Right now I would like to give a few projections of what is happening and will be happening with me and the blog. The candidates have…

  • Holidays

    I’m guessing that it will be normal for me to post less often during the holidays. Hopefully 10 day breaks will not be normal.

  • A New Senator for a New Century

    I have been very interested in the senate race in Utah where Senator Hatch is running for his sixth term in the US Senate. I spent a lot of time last year hoping that some of the challengers in the Republican party would be able to unseat Senator Hatch in the Republican primary vote. Sadly,…
