Sunday Comedy at Mo’s

It’s 10pm on a Sunday night.  Salt Lake City is a sleepy town. The streets are quiet, buildings are dark, and pedestrians are few.   An unlikely microcosm of activity aggregates as comics arrive at Mo’s Bar and Grill’s open mic night. A few miscellaneous locals wander in for a late night snack, often unaware of […]

H&M 20 denier tights

Up for review: H&M 20 Denier Tights.  They were only $5.95 for a 2 pack, and the photo on the packaging really caught my attention.  I wore them out for an evening at a great local bar.  Here are the specs: They run slightly tall. Sheer to waist flat seems invisible reinforced toe They have […]

Mormonism and Islam: faiths of peace and love?

Here is a video of a man and woman being executed by members of the Muslim faith in Iran for having a love affair.  This “sin” according to Islamic law, is punishable by death.  The video is grainy, but you’ll get the idea. Do all Muslims practice this? Of course not. It’s just the most […]

Take the high road, take it like a man

I have a pattern of embarking on some new thing in life with great zeal. Like learning to ride a bike, I’ll strap on some training wheels and start cautiously pedaling around on my new thing.  The feeling of propelling myself forward in this novel way is fascinating.  My fantasies about racing around at high […]

will bacon go out of style in 2013?

BACON! People really love bacon! Bacon has spiritual implications. Bacon helps prevent STD’s and babies. Bacon can cure wounds. Bacon can help defend freedom. No matter what your lifestyle is, there’s a bacon for you: It even has it’s roots in higher education:  “Push Button, Receive Bacon” is a catchphrase often found in public restrooms […]

Coco & Puttnam: Starlight

On the coitus continuum, where fucking and making love are on opposite ends, I’d say this song falls about 3/4 of the way toward the “making love” side. Maybe even a bit closer.  This song is sultry, atmospheric, and moody in the most sexy of ways.  Enjoy.

Why do Mormons attract the disdain of others?

Why do Mormons attract the ire and jeers of people? It’s very simple. It comes down to one very basic truth about life as a human being: The way the world treats you is basically a mirror of how you view the world. You attract what you are. This is true of romance, business, and […]

36 laps around the sun

SO…. it’s my birthday today!  Hooray! Or something. Initially, I planned on writing a self indulgent article about what my 30’s have been like so far.  I’m just not feeling it this morning.  I have amazing friends. Thank you all for the good energy you impart into my life.  I also have amazing daughters.  Today, […]
