Calling to the Beginnings
Over the years, my job duties have shifted and evolved. But today, I was able to go back to my roots and regain memories that had faded over time.
Our Newest Addition
We are pleased to introduce the newest members of our family, Meeko and Nemo. Their young caretaker has this to say about them: “I am very glad to have them join our family. They have a good time. I feed them every night. I’m so proud of them. They like their new home. They are … Read more
Mormon Messages
YouTube has something worth watching now. Check out the “Mormon Messages” channel on YouTube here! These feature short inspirational videos about gospel topics.
Does the Stimulus plan provide me an Aspirin?
Alright, let me get this out of my system. I was so mad yesterday that I yelled back at the radio. I was sitting alone in my car, and the windows were rolled up, so I don’t think I disturbed anyone else. And my shouting didn’t really make me feel much better. But here is … Read more
What to do for a 50th Anniversary?
I need ideas. My parents are going to celebrate their 50th Wedding Anniversary in just a few months. We should probably have thought of this sooner. I’m not sure what most people do, but it is a great occasion and we should probably do something. How do you celebrate such an event? Going to Disneyland is … Read more

Thankfulness and Stuff.

I’m sure that varies. We celebrate being thankful by stressing out our parents and stuffing ourselves full of wonderful food. Perhaps we are … Read more

This little tid-bit made me smile: When Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama carried one town in Tooele County, it was such incredible news that the Tooele Transcript-Bulletin’s headline trumpeted, “Obama takes Ophir.” Click here for the article in the Tooele Transcript-Bulletin Quoted from Paul Rolly, Salt Lake Tribune.

Change you can enjoy
Wondering what to do with that “change” that President-Elect Obama is promising us? I’ve found an excellent place to spend it. Go to the Provo Movies 8 (2424 N University Pkwy, Provo UT). Walk in the entrance, and make a right turn into the arcade. Next, plug a quarter into the Ms. Pac-Man game. Now, … Read more
One Day as President
With the election coming up, I was thinking on a piece of trivia I once heard, that David Rice Atchison (1807-1886) served as President of the United States for a total of one entire day, from noon on March 4, 1849 until noon on March 5, 1849. It must be true, because it says so … Read more
